Release Notes

Added

  • Configuration File Creation: Added logic to automatically create the configuration file if it does not exist. The application now ensures the config file is created in the same directory as the executable or script.

  • Manual Filename Option: Added an option to manually set the filename for downloads or use a custom template string. Users can now specify a filename directly in the UI, providing greater flexibility.

Updated

  • Configuration File Path Handling:

    • Updated the CONFIG_FILE_PATH to be set relative to the executable or script directory, ensuring it is created alongside the .exe when compiled.
    • Added a check to determine if the script is running as a compiled executable or as a script and adjusted the config file path accordingly.
    • Commit: ac2679a

  • Path Normalization:

    • Improved path normalization by using os.path.normpath to ensure paths are consistently formatted based on the operating system.

  • YT-DLP Library Usage:

    • Switched from depending on the yt-dlp executable to using the yt-dlp library directly within the application. This change simplifies the setup process by removing the need for an external executable and integrates yt-dlp functionality more seamlessly.
    • Commit: 6c0e2c5

  • FFmpeg Path Handling:

    • Implemented a method to check if ffmpeg is available in the system's PATH by running the ffmpeg -version command. If ffmpeg is set to "ffmpeg" in the configuration but is not found in PATH, the application now raises an appropriate exception prompting users to add ffmpeg to PATH or specify a custom path.
    • Commit: bd0c6b4

Fixed

  • Error Handling:
    • Enhanced error handling in the save_config method to catch and print IOError exceptions if there's an issue saving the configuration file.
    • Fixed issues where the application could incorrectly handle FFmpeg paths, ensuring better handling of both default and custom paths.

Code Changes

  • DownloadWorker Class:

    • Updated to use the yt-dlp library directly instead of the executable.
    • Added logic to handle manual filename input and custom template strings.
    • Implemented is_ffmpeg_in_path method to check if ffmpeg is in the PATH.

  • save_config Method:

    • Updated to create necessary directories if they don't exist and handle file writing with proper encoding and error catching.
