Description

Version 1.1.1.0 brings superior download control and consistency, with new download actions, session restoration, and robust progress monitoring.

Features

  • Current downloads can now be selected, and an action can be taken depending on the selection - either pause or resume downloads, and also kill them.
  • Some UI adjustments have been applied, such as removing the ugly border around video lists.
  • The main program menu has been fleshed out with fancy icons, alt key selection hotkeys, and shortcut texts.
  • Upon program launch, the previous user session will be restored - the last query typed into the query box, the last set of videos loaded, and the downloads that were taking place when the program was shut down.
  • YouTube Downloader has been made a single-instance application - only one instance can be launched at a time.

Bug Fixes

  • A bug was present in the previous version, where all data sizes were controlled in MiBs. YTD's new system will now recognise all data sizes, and perform conversions of its own to display on the UI. In other words, long or short downloads, or downloads running on slow internet systems will no longer hang on progress updating.
  • Downloads will no longer continue after the program has been shut down.
  • Video IDs beginning with a dash ('-') will now be downloadable (they were being skipped before).

Optimisations

  • YouTube Downloader will now use much less RAM when a large quantity of videos are queried or being downloaded.
