v0.5.0

Windows desktop app for downloading videos via yt-dlp, with a bundled custom FFmpeg for post-processing/remuxing.

What's new since v0.2.0

• The app is now WPF-only; the old WinForms front end has been retired.
• Download history: every attempt (completed, failed, or canceled) is logged to a local SQLite database — browse it with search, one-click redownload, "open in browser", and a clear-history action.
• Light/Dark/System UI theme, switchable at runtime.
• Custom Yes/No confirmation dialog and a redesigned About window/toolbar.
• Guards against closing the app while a download is still in progress.

Features

• Paste a link (or auto-detect one from the clipboard) and pick a video/audio quality, or auto-select the best available.
• Batch downloads: drag-and-drop a list of URLs, or load them from a .txt file.
• Configurable number of simultaneous downloads.
• Per-job progress (percentage, speed, ETA) with cancel support.
• Automatically keeps the bundled yt-dlp.exe up to date on startup.
• UI available in English and Polish.

Requirements: Windows, .NET 8 Desktop Runtime.
