Multiyt-dlp is the definitive high-velocity GUI for the legendary yt-dlp.
Built with Rust and Tauri because I wanted a masterpiece, but didn't want to write the code myself.

he didn't even read the rust docs.
- Massive Concurrency: I don't wait for progress bars. Download entire playlists simultaneously. If your router catches fire, that’s a hardware issue.
- Rust-Tier Stability: Leveraging a language I don't understand to provide performance I definitely deserve.
- Smart Queuing: The AI manages the bandwidth so I don't have to. If it's slow, yell at your ISP, not me.
- The Archive: It tracks what I’ve downloaded. If I try to download the same thing twice, the app judges me.
- Audiophile Presets: FLAC, MP3, or 4K Video. One click. I don’t deal with codecs.
- Metadata Injection: Auto-embeds thumbnails and tags. My files look professional even if my workflow isn't.
- Cyber-Glass UI: A futuristic interface designed to hide the fact that I’m coding in my bedroom.
- State Awareness: Visual indicators for when the app is "Dying."
- Syn Squad Integration: The UI actually respects the intern (sometimes).
If you’re a normal human, just grab the pre-compiled .exe.
