Apologies for the long delay in releasing a new version of MacYTDL. This version is mostly bug fixes but has a few new features:

  • A new setting has been added to control whether successfully downloaded URLs are deleted the batch file.
  • The ALAC audio format is now available for audio-only downloads.
  • The warning suppression setting is now implemented in all download steps.
  • Private videos in playlists should no longer cause a crash.
  • SBS Australia have changed the content of their web pages. So, the SBS Chooser can now show all seasons or one season depending on URL. However, the Chooser will not display all episodes if there are more than 100 episodes in total. Then, by default it will show episodes of the most recent season. Episodes from another season can be downloaded by navigating to the season tab for that season. A number of improvements are planned for v1.28 of MacYTDL.
  • Live streams from SBS Australia can now be recorded.
  • Permissions of many folders and files inside the MacYTDL bundle have been rectified. MacYTDL should now work properly in multi-user situations.
  • Keyboard shortcuts to invoke the “Admin” and “Settings” dialogs have been changed to be more consistent with macOS standards. “Settings” is now invoked with command-, and “Admin” is invoked with command-shift-,.
  • Wording in the Monitor dialog has been simplified.
  • Intel versions of FFmpeg and FFprobe are now sourced from Martin Riedl's FFmpeg Build Server. The previous source seems to be no longer providing timely updates.
    • However, for users on macOS 10.14 and earlier, a compatible version of FFmpeg and FFprobe is sourced from https://evermeet.cx/ffmpeg/.
  • Alerts shown while components are being installed will stay visible longer.
  • More characters are shown in the “ID” column of the “Get formats list” dialog to try to make the different formats clearer.
  • Using the “Get formats list” function no longer crashes on Swedish TV (www.svtplay.se).
  • Batch downloads should now work when remux is specified.
  • Parallel downloads for SBS shows should now work correctly.
  • Added some missing settings to the “Show settings before download” dialog: “Parallel downloads”, “No part files”, “Delete partial files” and “Hide warnings”.
  • Minor improvement to layout of the “Show settings before download” dialog when subtitles are being downloaded.
    • Layout in Spanish is improved but needs more work.
  • A couple of checkboxes in the “Utilities” dialog will no longer behave like text boxes. This was caused by overlapping label and checkbox controls.
  • Batch downloads no longer done in parallel if there is just one item in the batch.
  • Live streams from the Australian 9Now site can no longer be recorded – requires a yt-dlp fix.
