We are excited to announce the release of YouTube Playlist Downloader v1.0! This tool is designed to simplify the process of downloading videos from YouTube playlists using a Python script powered by the pytube library. Here are the key features and improvements in this release:

Features:

  • Download all videos from a YouTube playlist with ease.
  • Convert the playlist name into an alphanumeric folder name for better organization.
  • Display the total number of videos in the playlist for better visibility.
  • Download each video with the highest available resolution to ensure optimal quality.
  • View the size of each video before downloading to manage storage space efficiently.
  • Receive progress updates during the download process to track the overall progress.
  • Get a notification when all videos have been successfully downloaded.

Known Issue:
If a folder with the same name as the playlist already exists, the script will throw an error. This is because the script tries to create a new folder with an alphanumeric name based on the playlist title to store the downloaded videos. However, if a folder with the same name already exists, the operating system will not allow the creation of another folder with the same name, resulting in an error. To resolve this issue, you can either delete the existing folder or rename it before running the script.

Installation:
To install the YouTube Playlist Downloader v1.0, please follow the instructions provided in the README.md file of the repository.

Usage:
Refer to the README.md file for detailed instructions on how to run the script and download YouTube playlist videos.

We hope that YouTube Playlist Downloader v1.0 proves to be a valuable tool for your video downloading needs. Feel free to provide feedback, report any issues, or contribute to the project on our GitHub repository.

Happy downloading!
