Other changes:

  • App now can show FFmpeg output in the download card to avoid confusion on cases where it might appear as if the download is stuck but its running a ffmpeg subprocess

  • Fixed app crashing if yt-dlp sources in preferences is badly written
  • Fixed app having multiple columns for format items instead of just one #800
  • Clear results when changing home recommendation source to avoid confusion
  • Fix app passing --cache-dir twice in the command
  • Remove buffer time in cut player, could help it load faster
  • Fix app not consistently preferring codec in a format
  • Prevent app from showing 'null' in author field if its not available #814
  • Change text to be Sentence Case #793
  • Add feature to convert audio bitrate up to 320kbps. * Even though it doesnt really increase quality many people requested it so here you go
  • Added feature to show available subtitles a video has when selecting subtitle languages
  • Made default subtitle format default instead of srt
  • Fix app not properly putting data fetching extra commands in some cases
  • Added "system" option in language selection so it follows the system language always
  • Fixed app crashing when putting unreal numbers in cut section
  • Hid download all and clipboard chip when selecting items to avoid confusion
  • Added separate icons for success, running and failed downloads
  • Used ^.*$ for replace-in-metadata
  • Groupped finished, running, errored notifications
  • Added subs in po token creator screen

  • Add option to reverse items in the multiple download card
  • Made app not restart when restoring backup
  • Fix app not removing items that you redownload from cancelled/erroret etc
  • Other small stuff i forgor

For advanced users:

For anyone who is using intent arguments in YTDLnis for automation, the COMMAND argument has been removed. This is due to a found security vulnerability by SonarPaul where user information and app integrity could be compromised. Read the pdf for more information in the YTDLnis Updates Telegram Channel.

If you were using that argument for extra commands with audio/video downloads, you could make a command template about it and use it as extra command and also add a url regex if you want.

What's Changed

Automatically generate WEB PO Tokens & Visitor Data inside the app

Since youtube is enforcing a policy that sessions need po tokens, you might need them to appear more legitimate and not get errors like 403, or even unlock formats that need po tokens.

With some references from LibreTube and OuterTune, the app now has a po token generator using it's WebView.
These records are stored in the apps preferences. In advanced settings now there is a toggle to enable the use of the tokens in yt-dlp.

Some formats need PO Token to show up like HIGH AUDIO, you will need to log in with cookies and then generate the tokens. There is also the option to use visitor data but you need to disable cookies.
yt-dlp doesn't recommend using it but the option is there if u need it.

The app will apply these settings as youtube extractor arguments
youtube:player_client=web;po_token=web.gvs+GVS_TOKEN,web.player+PLAYER_TOKEN;player-skip=webpage,configs;visitor_data=VISITOR_DATA
If you have po tokens set up with web client with po token, there might be duplication happening, so check that out.
Also since these tokens work for any web client, there is also an option to select which web clients to include as extractor arguments.

Other stuff

  • Cut Section has been reworked,thanks to madmini. Now you can cut down to milliseconds.
  • Added safeBrowsingEnabled in WebView for generating cookies for devices of API 26 and above. Thought to generate incognito cookies that last longer
  • Added feature to reset all settings belonging to a certain preference page
  • Added option to turn off the code color highlighter
  • Fixed app not applying prefer small sized formats. It should've been last in format sorting not first.
  • Added ability to enable automatic backup when the app checks for new update and finds one
  • Added write-subs and write-auto-subs and --compat-options no-keep-subs when the user embeds subs but doesnt want to save them so he can get more subtitles to embed
  • Turned the changelog dialog to a separate screen for better visibility
  • Added --external-downloader-args aria2c:"--check-certificate=false" to fix aria2 not working
  • Added bitrate info for audio formats card in the download card
  • Some small bug fix here and there

What's Changed

  • Fixed downloads crashing on items with titles that have quotes in them
  • Removed custom format sorting by default to avoid common issues with format selection, and moved the preferences to advanced settings. Most of users don't need to customize sorting formats anyway :)
  • Fixed app sometimes building -f as bv/bv+ba/b instead of bv+ba/bv/b
  • Update WorkManager library, hopefully fixing #720
  • Looks like adding preferred language in -S is useless so i added it as part of ba[lang^=...]
  • Other small things

Note

  • The alternate downloader Aria2c is broken, so turn it off for the time being until something is found out how to fix it/

Hopefully this build is stable, until i manage to find time in the future 🗣️

Note

This version has database updates. It's very unlikely you will face issues but make sure to make a backup of the app's data before updating to this version.

What's Changed

  • Added File Size in Format Importance Order Preference
  • Made Format Importance Order applicable to format sorting in the command building process
  • Fixed The app doesn't update yt-dlp past to 2024.11.18 #659
  • Fixed Starting redownload of thousands of songs at once crashed the app. #661
  • Fixed app not deselecting when selecting all in download history
  • Added ability to customize the filename template when cutting an item.
  • Since WAV cant embed thumbnails and crashes the download, made it disabled when you select that container
  • Fixed app freezing when selecting "Also Download as Audio"
  • Added a progressbar to the download log when the download is running
  • Added more descriptions to the Observe Sources configuration card to clear up confusion
  • Added long press to audio,video buttons in the result item details card
  • Added a custom cache directory preference
  • Removed the -P command in command/terminal downloads if the user has written it himself
  • Added preference to skip checking certificates
  • #680 removed the hardcoded trimming of author and title
  • Added ability to quickly fetch cookies after a failed data fetch in the home screen, through the error dialog and then try again to fetch data
  • Fixed app sometimes putting empty extractor arguments for youtube downloads
  • Added livestream settings for video downloads, Wait for Video and ability to download the live from the start. Also set up how often to retry the download if the live is not available
  • Added option to prefer container instead of codec for audio downloads. this will ignore codec preference in format sorting and only apply container preference
  • made add cookies dialog a bottom sheet to make the cookie text more visible
  • added ability to set playlist name as album name when enabling "Use Playlist name as Album Metadata" in the settings
  • added ability to backup logs as .txt file
  • organized backups to their respective folders inside the YTDLnis folder. This includes logs, settings backups, and cookie exports

Po Tokens & Player Clients

Now you can set up configurations for many youtube player clients and their respective GVS & Player PO Tokens.
Also if you want certain PO Tokens to apply only for a certain youtube url, like youtube music you can do that with URL Regex.
These configurations will always be used, both in data fetching and in the download process

Preferred Command Templates & URL Matching

Now command templates are more powerful than ever. The preferred command template is now reset but now you can set limitless preferred command templates.
Along with that, you can now set URL Matching with a regex. You can set a preferred template for youtube downloads and one for reddit etc etc.
The same logic applies to command templates that are set as extra commands and as data fetching extra commands.

If you have multiple preferred command templates that dont have url regex setup, then one of them will be selected for command downloads.
If you have multiple command templates as extra commands without url regex, they will be added to any download.

And other small bug fixes i forgor to note. Sorry for taking so long :P
