# YTDLP UI Edition
A modern graphical interface for downloading YouTube videos and audio using **yt-dlp** and **CustomTkinter**.
Built in Python with a modular architecture and currently in a **stable phase**.
## Now You Can Download From AUR
```bash
yay -S yt-dlp-linux-gui
```
---
## 📌 Project Status
**Stable**
The application currently:
- Downloads videos in **MP4** format
- Downloads audio in **MP3** format
- Allows custom download directory selection
- Sends system notifications
- Handles resource paths correctly in development
---
## Project Structure
```bash
ytdlp_gui/
│
├── core/
│ └── downloader.py
│
├── gui/
│ ├── ui.py
│ └── utils.py
│
├── img/
├── fonts/
│
└── YTDLP.py
```
- **core/** → Download logic (yt-dlp integration)
- **gui/** → Graphical interface and utilities
- **img / fonts/** → Static resources used by the UI
---
## Installation (Recommended)
Instead of installing dependencies manually, simply run:
```bash
chmod +x setup.sh
./setup.sh
```
The setup script will automatically install all required dependencies and prepare the project.
### Windows
PowerShell:
```powershell
.\setup.ps1
```
If PowerShell blocks scripts:
```powershell
powershell -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -File .\setup.ps1
```
CMD:
```bat
setup.cmd
```
---
## ▶Running the Application
After running the setup script:
```bash
python ytdlp_gui/YTDLP.py
```
---
## Features
- Modern dark-mode UI (CustomTkinter)
- MP3 extraction using FFmpeg
- Automatic download directory creation
- Input validation before download
- System notifications for download status
- Clean separation between UI and core logic
---
## How It Works
- The `Downloader` class dynamically configures yt-dlp options.
- Audio mode uses FFmpeg post-processing.
- The UI validates fields before starting downloads.
- A smart `resource_path()` function ensures proper asset loading.
---
## Main Dependencies
- yt-dlp
- customtkinter
- pillow
- plyer
(All installed automatically via `setup.sh`.)
---
## Future Improvements
- Real-time download progress bar
- Playlist support
- Persistent configuration
- Additional format options
