youtube-dl-GUI

Note: I haven't updated the code in years so if you want to become a maintainer for this project and carry it forward please let me know. I would love to have someone else take care of it with me because I simply don't have enough time right now.

This repository contains code for a youtube-dl GUI written in PyQt. It is based on youtube-dl which is a Video downloading script maintained by various contributers and released in Public Domain. This GUI code is currently written for Python v2.x and not v3.x However I will make it compatible with Python v3.x after refining it a little. Please note that this GUI code is released under the MIT License and not Public Domain.

Requirements:

Features:

This application has the following features:

Windows:

The exe is currently hosted on Dropbox. I have included a setup.py file. Just run it like this:

python setup.py py2exe

This will result in a dist and build directory. Simply go to the dist directory and you will get a main.exe file and some other files. That main.exe file is a standalone executable which can be run simply by double clicking it. You can distribute that file to your friend.

Note:

I am doing a huge change in the code base and UI so it is very unstable right now. You may use it at your own risk. Some UI components are not wired up so they are useless right now.
