- When yt-dlp underestimates the total bytes (which often excludes audio), the first track download would prematurely hit 100% and then snap back to a lower percentage when the second track started.
- Added a 20% padding to the overall expected size during the first file download to leave room for potential secondary tracks.
- Also added a safeguard to ensure the visually reported overall progress fraction never decreases during a download.
- Removed track-specific status messages in favor of a simpler generic message.
- Passed initial `sizeBytes` estimation into the progress parser.
- YTDLPProgressParser now accumulates sizes across multiple sequential downloads (like video then audio).
- The progress fraction and displayed size are correctly computed relative to the overall expected size, preventing the progress bar from resetting to 0% mid-download.
- yt-dlp downloads video and audio streams sequentially, causing the progress bar to reset when switching streams.
- The status message was previously hardcoded to 'Downloading Media' and overwrote track change indicators.
- Now, when yt-dlp starts a new stream, the status message clearly reads 'Downloading Video Track', 'Downloading Audio Track', etc., explaining the progress reset to the user.
- Keep the ETA visible even when the download is paused so the user knows how much time is left.
- When the connection drops, show the last known speed for 3 seconds. If the connection isn't restored, show '0 KiB/s' instead of 'Unknown'.
- Clear speed and ETA fields when a download is completed, queued, or canceled.
- Ignore 'Unknown' or '-' speed/ETA updates if a valid speed is already known to prevent UI flickering.
- Improve high-resolution video detection by checking 'format_note', parsing the 'resolution' string, and using more relaxed height tolerances to correctly identify ultra-wide formats (e.g., 2160p with a 1920 height).
Gatekeeper enforces Library Validation and prevents `dlopen` of quarantined ad-hoc signed dynamic libraries on ARM64. Because the `_internal` folder was shipped inside the DMG, the user's system flagged it with the com.apple.quarantine attribute, causing the Python shared library to fail to load inside `yt-dlp`.
By reverting back to the single-file PyInstaller binary (which is now properly code-signable without corruption on macOS), PyInstaller extracts the `_internal` folder at runtime to `/var/folders/...`. These extracted files do not inherit the quarantine flag, allowing AMFI to successfully load them and completely bypassing the dlopen system policy rejection.
The latest yt-dlp release (2026.06.09) requires heavy JavaScript execution to solve YouTube's PoW challenges. This takes ~35s on most machines, which exceeded the hardcoded 30s timeout, causing 'Failed to load options'. Increased the timeout to 120s and improved the UI to show actual errors instead of hardcoding 'Failed to load options'.
This fixes an issue where node child processes spawned by yt-dlp would keep standard output pipes open, preventing the EOF event from firing and causing the application to hang until a 30s timeout occurred.

This commit overhauls the UI of the Scheduler and Speed Limiter tools using modern GroupBox designs. It also adds a highly-requested Stop Time feature to the scheduler to pause queues, and introduces a dynamic unit selection (KB/s, MB/s) to the Speed Limiter.
Includes the executable's modification date in the version hash to ensure ad-hoc and local recompilations correctly trigger the keychain primer UI, preventing unexpected system prompts on boot.
Defers fetching site login passwords until they are strictly needed (when a download starts or when viewing properties) to prevent the OS from showing the keychain prompt before the in-app primer UI.
- Refactor Site Logins pane to use a data Table with search and a dedicated editor sheet
- Add 'Reveal in Finder' buttons for bundled engines in Engine pane
- Fix alignment of 'Bundled' labels and 'Browser Cookies' picker in Engine pane
- Remove build number from the version display in About pane
- Overhauled Downloads, Look & Feel, and Network settings panes to match modern UI guidelines.
- Implemented global User-Agent spoofing for all download engines to bypass restrictions.
- Added new configuration options: dock badge toggle, notification controls, completion sound, auto-retries, and "ask where to save" prompt.
- Integrated NSApp.dockTile.badgeLabel for tracking active downloads in the macOS Dock.
- Ensured newly added options correctly persist through AppSettings.
