Tired of clunky browser extensions and sketchy websites just to save a YouTube video? YT Downloader is a sleek, lightweight AutoHotkey V2 GUI tool powered by yt-dlp that makes downloading YouTube content effortless. Simply copy a YouTube URL to your clipboard and the app auto-fills the link and fetches the video title for you. Choose to download video (up to 8K resolution), audio (MP3 with adjustable bitrate), or transcripts/subtitles — or all three at once! A real-time progress bar keeps you informed, toast notifications confirm when downloads are complete, and all your preferences are remembered between sessions. No command line needed — just point,copy, click, and download.
