Tk front-end for the python script youtube-dl
Requires youtube-dl (get here https://github.com/rg3/youtube-dl) requires ffmpeg to convert to mp3
v0.1 - Basic shell program. insert link, get mp3 - This version doesn't print the YT-dl progess hooks in real-time. when you click 'Go' the program initalizes but you will not see output until YT-dl has finished it's thing. I'm not sure how to catch the hooks yet, but when I do it will be in the next release. - Since there is no menu yet, it's best to put the script in your Music folder and create a .desktop entry to access it. Future versions will allow user to choose where files are saved.
future versions-
- radiobuttons to access more of the youtube-dl options
- search function
- edit name of file
- file menu to give option to pick where file is saved
- print youtube-dl progress hooks in real time
Install
if you don't have youtube-dl installed: $>pip3 install youtube-dl
if you don't have ffmpeg: $> sudo apt-get install ffmpeg
- put script into your ~/Music directory
- create .desktop entry to access it, or run directly from the shell.
