YTSage 4.9.6b - Beta Release
New Features
Thumbnail status messages: Added new localized status messages for thumbnail saving in all supported languages
Improvements
Update checks via PyPI: Switched update checks from GitHub API to PyPI to avoid rate limiting issues, with changelog fetched from GitHub as a fallback
Persistent cookie settings: Cookie settings (source, browser, profile, file path, and active status) are now saved and loaded from config, ensuring consistent behavior across sessions #64 thanks to (@KamikiriTW)
Analyze button state: The analyze button is now disabled until a valid URL is entered, with updated styling for the disabled state
Improved subprocess handling: Replaced text and universal_newlines parameters with encoding="utf-8" and errors="replace" for improved output handling
Generic extracting message: Removed explicit 'yt-dlp' mention from extracting info message for a more generic and consistent UI across languages
Bug Fixes
'utf-8' codec can't decode byte 0xa8: Fixed decoding errors by improving subprocess output handling with explicit encoding and error replacement #66 thanks to (@Daymond)
Process termination and file cleanup: Enhanced cross-platform process tree termination for downloads, using process groups on Unix and taskkill on Windows. Improved file deletion reliability with increased retries, garbage collection, and better backoff logic
Removed ffplay.exe from Windows builds: Excluded ffplay.exe from verification and distribution as only ffmpeg.exe and ffprobe.exe are required
Refactoring
Thumbnail saving logic: Refactored thumbnail saving to use cached images from analysis instead of extracting via yt-dlp subprocess, improving reliability and performance
