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

What's new since v0.5.0

  • Fixed: clicking X on a queued (not yet started) job did nothing — canceling a queued download now actually removes it from the queue.
  • Completed job cards can now be dismissed from the list with the X button, without touching the downloaded file.
  • Download history now logs an entry as soon as a download starts (not only once it finishes), and reports the correct file size/average speed for the final merged/recoded file.
  • Fixed emoji toolbar/history icons staying dark and unreadable in Dark theme — replaced with theme-aware vector icons.
  • Theming polish: list highlighting and the job card's cancel button now consistently follow the app palette.
  • Light theme now uses a subtle blue tint instead of flat white/gray.

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.
  • Download history with search, one-click redownload, "open in browser", and a clear-history action.
  • Light/Dark/System UI theme, switchable at runtime.
  • Automatically keeps the bundled yt-dlp.exe up to date on startup.
  • UI available in English and Polish.

Requirements: Windows, .NET 8 Desktop Runtime.
