What's new in youtubeDLFrontEnd 1.2.1
Apr 3, 2017
- FIXED: Clipboard monitor enable regression. Ungh, no more late night releases.
New in youtubeDLFrontEnd 1.2 (Apr 3, 2017)
- ADDED: Help to download youtube-dl if it isn't found, including an auto-download function.
- ADDED: Links added to the settings->about box.
- ADDED: We now never auto-start items with a priority <0 (pause them instead)
- FIXED: Window would flicker before hiding itself when started with windows.
- FIXED: Better restoring of flaky downloads (now tries to restore even if a download has an invalid url)
- FIXED: More code put in a background loader for faster start.
- FIXED: Better clipboard watcher code.
New in youtubeDLFrontEnd 1.1 (Aug 12, 2016)
- ADDED: 'Remember Downloads' setting. This does two things when enabled: [1] It maintains a list of every url ever added. (The file 'addedURLs.txt' is created for this purpose.) If a duplicate URL is later added it will be paused with a status of 'previously added'; resuming the download will force-start it. This helps prevent downloading duplicate content. AND [2] It remembers the downloads currently in the list. (The folder 'dl_history' is populated for this purpose.) This is done to preserve downloads across program/system restarts.
- ADDED: Priorities; Ctrl+r now randomizes selected downloads. Also added a 'decrementing' check-box in the 'set priority' dialog.
- ADDED: 'Date added' Column. (column order can be changed by dragging the headers, columns can be effectively hidden by sizing them to 0 - this setting is remembered)
- ADDED: Check-box in settings to control start-menu shortcut creation.
- Some minor UI tweaks.
New in youtubeDLFrontEnd 1.0 (Aug 12, 2016)
- ADDED: in settings, button to create a start menu shortcut.
- Minor UI tweaks/bugfixes.
New in youtubeDLFrontEnd Beta 9 (Aug 12, 2016)
- Reworked the UI to remove splitContainer panels & save some space. Splitcontianers are hard to use and have poor DPI scaling support (thanks Microsoft). Bottom add-urls textbox is now fixed in size.
- ADDED: Context menu for url add textbox.
New in youtubeDLFrontEnd Beta 8 (Aug 12, 2016)
- FIXED: Removed Visual basic power pack requirement, cause nobody has it.
New in youtubeDLFrontEnd Beta 7 (Aug 12, 2016)
- ADDED: 'Incrementing' checkbox in the Set Priority dialogue. If checked, it will increment (by 1) the priority of each selected item, starting at the base priority you set. Usefull if you set a column sort and want that to be the exact order of download; just select all and set the priorty with incrementing checked.
- CHANGED: Right CLick->'Open File Location' now selects the destination file in explorer if it exists.
