  • FFmpeg and FFprobe installer now works (bug was hard coded file names) – again.
  • FFmpeg and FFprobe installer on first run of MacYTDL now works better and should produce fewer errors.
  • FFmpeg and FFprobe installer uses the downloads folder. Error when that folder is not available has been fixed.
  • Improved layout of Utilities dialog including showing current versions of youtube-dl and FFmpeg.
  • Previously, when the MacYTDL Service was automatically updated an old copy already in Trash would cause an error. That has been fixed.
  • Improved logic for downloading subtitles. See Help for more detail.
  • Error caused by dismissing admin credentials during youtube-dl install no longer occurs.
  • User can now request subtitles in “lrc” and “dfxp” format.
  • MacYTDL Service now works with the Chrome and Chromium browsers.
  • Past download URLs should no longer affect new downloads.
  • Changed call to youtube-dl to reduce error in which youtube-dl interprets single quotes around URLs as double-quotes. Now only using single quotes when URL contains an ampersand, “&”.
  • “Check for MacYTDL Updates” now reports when user has current version.
  • Updates to youtube-dl are now downloaded using the more secure “https” instead of “http” protocol.
  • “Show settings” function now works when user requests existing copy of video download to be overwritten.
  • Fixed Blank line in “Show Settings” dialog when AtomicParsley not installed.
  • Adviser dialog now shows in all cases – previously did not show when user’s volume name had a space e.g. “Macintosh HD”.
  • “.description” files are not renamed to “.txt” when there are two or more downloads in one process.
