As of today i am no longer able to download most if not all video files. I have tried randomly downloading videos from 2017, even ones i could download before do not seem to be working anymore... And yes, the author seems to have ceased developing it. Very sad! |
@thatguy344 Have you tried updating the youtube-dl backend? |
|
You mean from within the Youtube-DLG folder? How would i go about doing this, just download the new fixed version of youtube-dl and drop everything into the Youtube-DLG folder? |
Anyone is interested in migrating this project to python 3.7 ? I was considering contributing to the project since I have been using youtube DLG for some time, but as I tried to run it from code, didn't manage to get a working setup for python 2.7 due to some broken dependencies, seems more useful just to migrate to python 3.7. Anyone wants to give it a shot with me ? NaN. |
Actually I'm considering to create an alternative in C++/Qt for getting rid of python issues. |
Hello Muhammad, thanks for your response, let me know if you start it, I am specially interested in joining in from an early stage. |
I'll let you know here. |
ok, thank my friend!

Hello Muhammad, I have a running YoutubeDLG *running from source with
Python 3.7 and wxPython 4.0 *, it's far from complete, but at least is
enough to open the GUI and download a youtube sample video. I think it
could be of good use *to put it in a branch like "port-python37-wxpython40"*,
to make it available to everyone to contribute while the work goes. *Would
you mind to create such branch ?* I don't find the option on GitHub since I
don't own the project. I am checking if I can create the branch directly
from GIT but I think it can't be done.

Simply fork the project on Github then push your modifications to your forked project, then you can share the modifications by making a Pull request. BTW, I found someone made same task in this request. |
I'm working on a fork, written in Python3/Gtk3. It should be ready by the end of May. |
Fantastic, could you please point to your repository? |
I will upload it, as soon as the core features are ready. One or two weeks from now, three at the absolute maximum :) |
I can't tell you how many hundreds of people I've seen fervently promising that they'll up their code as soon as it's ready, and every one of them either disappears forever, never to be heard from again, or comes back with a sob story about how their hard drive died. Stop that. Just make the fork, commit you half-working bits, and if you finish them then great, ready-made fork; if not, someone else can pick up where you left off instead of forcing everyone to reinvent the wheel. |
Your long run of disappointment is at an end. The code is up here, but it's not very stable. Perhaps you Python gurus can help with that. |
Thanks a lot @axcore |
@axcore |
@Lelle10 There are not installers yet. Check back in a week or two. |
The old url was redirecting to github. The new url is a redirect to the actual file instead.
if you keep having errors, you can try using the alternate app I made, |
Thanks @MajorBarnulf Tartube is much mature now I use it on daily bases it's full of features for both newbies and internet geeks. |
@mbnoimi I understand your point, but I find tartube a bit "too much" and isn't an app you could just launch quickly, paste the url, click a button and continue doing something else, it's a bit more indepth and complex for my use of these tools, |
I agree with you the ui is a little bit complicated but the classic mode works fine for people don't want to deal advanced features (it's a clone ui of this project) |
@nanondev Are you still interested in porting Youtube-dlG to Python 3? |
Porting to python 3 is easy; packaging it for various operating systems is the hard bit. Do you know how to do that? |
I don't know how to package it for all of the operating systems, but I do want to see this project being worked on again, so I forked it. (https://github.com/creepertron95/yt-dlc-gui) |
There are serious bugs reported here but unfortunately it seems the author abandoned this project.
Am I correct?
