# GUI Plan
|
||||
|
||||
## Python-first Desktop Architecture
|
||||
|
||||
- **Primary GUI framework**: `PySide6` (Qt for Python).
|
||||
|
||||
## Core Features to Implement
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Dashboard Overview**: List all tracked playlists, their status (Last Sync), and total size.
|
||||
2. **Interactive Configuration**: Wizard-style setup for new playlists (URL detection, folder picker).
|
||||
3. **Queue Manager**: Visual progress bars for active downloads, showing speed, ETA, and current video title.
|
||||
4. **Log Viewer**: Real-time streaming of yt-dlp logs for troubleshooting.
|
||||
5. **Settings Panel**: Global settings for binary paths (ffmpeg), max parallel jobs, and Docker detection toggle.
|
||||
|
||||
## Phase 1 Roadmap: "The Bridge"
|
||||
|
||||
- [ ] **PySide6 Skeleton**: Basic window with `QWebEngine` (if hybrid) or native `QWidget` dashboard.
|
||||
- [ ] **Packaging**: `pyinstaller` configuration to bundle both backend and frontend into a single `.exe`.
|
||||
|
||||
## Packaging & Distribution (brief)
|
||||
|
||||
- Bundle the backend and GUI into one distributable.
|
||||
- Windows: use `pyinstaller` or `briefcase` to create an executable/installer. Consider creating an MSI or Inno Setup installer for a polished UX.
|
||||
- Linux: provide AppImage, Snap, or distribution-specific packages (deb/rpm) — AppImage is a good starting point for single-file distribution.

# MP3 Metadata Plan
|
||||
|
||||
## Subject Area
|
||||
|
||||
- Add MP3 tag writing for downloaded YouTube playlist items.
|
||||
- Scope is limited to `.mp3` outputs produced by `audio` mode and the MP3 side of `both` mode.
|
||||
- Metadata is sourced from YouTube/yt-dlp and embedded after audio extraction.
|
||||
|
||||
## Goal
|
||||
|
||||
- Write useful MP3 metadata for downloaded playlist items without affecting video-only downloads.
|
||||
- Keep the implementation reliable when optional fields are missing.
|
||||
- Preserve successful downloads even when metadata embedding partially fails.
|
||||
- Provide a per-playlist setting to enable or disable MP3 metadata embedding.
|
||||
|
||||
## Required Metadata
|
||||
|
||||
- `title` ← video title
|
||||
- `artist` ← uploader, fallback to channel
|
||||
- `album` ← album name if present
|
||||
- `tracknumber` ← playlist index
|
||||
- `date` / `year` ← upload date
|
||||
- `comment` ← source URL
|
||||
- `genre` ← if available
|
||||
- `album_art` ← thumbnail
|
||||
|
||||
## Configuration Requirement
|
||||
|
||||
- Add a per-playlist setting to turn MP3 metadata embedding on or off.
|
||||
- Default should be explicitly defined during implementation; recommended default is `enabled` for new configs.
|
||||
- The setting should only affect `.mp3` metadata writing and should not change download selection, extraction, or `.mp4` handling.
|
||||
|
||||
## Current Constraints
|
||||
|
||||
- The current playlist scan keeps only a minimal item shape: title, video id, and playlist index.
|
||||
- The scanner uses flat extraction, which is sufficient for diffing but not for full tag data.
|
||||
- MP3 extraction currently transcodes audio but does not write ID3 metadata.
|
||||
|
||||
## Implementation Strategy
|
||||
|
||||
- Keep playlist diffing fast by retaining the current flat scan for remote playlist structure.
|
||||
- Fetch full metadata only for items that are actually going to be downloaded or repaired.
|
||||
- Write metadata only after MP3 extraction completes successfully.
|
||||
- Treat metadata embedding as a post-processing step that can fail softly without discarding the MP3.
|
||||
|
||||
## Work Breakdown
|
||||
|
||||
### 1. Extend the metadata model
|
||||
|
||||
- Add optional fields to `PlaylistItem` for:
|
||||
- uploader
|
||||
- channel
|
||||
- album
|
||||
- upload_date
|
||||
- genre
|
||||
- thumbnail_url
|
||||
- webpage_url
|
||||
- Keep `artist` as a derived value instead of storing a separate field.
|
||||
|
||||
### 2. Fetch full per-video metadata
|
||||
|
||||
- Introduce a metadata fetch step for each item selected for download.
|
||||
- Use yt-dlp per-video extraction to retrieve richer fields than the flat playlist entry provides.
|
||||
- Prefer canonical values from the video page payload for upload date, uploader/channel, album, genre, thumbnail, and source URL.
|
||||
|
||||
### 3. Carry metadata through the download pipeline
|
||||
|
||||
- Ensure the enriched `PlaylistItem` reaches the download job and post-processing stage.
|
||||
- Keep this propagation in-memory unless restart-safe metadata persistence becomes necessary later.
|
||||
- Avoid changing unrelated sync behavior for video-only items.
|
||||
- Carry the per-playlist MP3 metadata enabled/disabled setting into the post-processing step.
|
||||
|
||||
### 4. Add an MP3 tag writer
|
||||
|
||||
- Add `mutagen` as the ID3 writing dependency.
|
||||
- Implement a focused tagging component that maps `PlaylistItem` metadata into ID3 frames.
|
||||
- Omit fields when the source value is missing instead of writing placeholders.
|
||||
|
||||
### 5. Map fields into ID3 tags
|
||||
|
||||
- `title` → video title
|
||||
- `artist` → uploader, fallback to channel
|
||||
- `album` → album if present
|
||||
- `tracknumber` → playlist index
|
||||
- `date/year` → parsed upload date
|
||||
- `comment` → canonical source URL
|
||||
- `genre` → genre if present
|
||||
|
||||
### 6. Embed album art
|
||||
|
||||
- Download the selected thumbnail for the video after the media download succeeds.
|
||||
- Attach thumbnail data as embedded cover art when the image type is supported.
|
||||
- Fail soft if thumbnail retrieval or embedding fails, and keep the MP3 intact.
|
||||
|
||||
### 7. Integrate into modes
|
||||
|
||||
- `audio` mode:
|
||||
- download source media
|
||||
- extract MP3
|
||||
- write MP3 tags only when the setting is enabled
|
||||
- delete temporary/source MP4 if configured
|
||||
- `both` mode:
|
||||
- download source media
|
||||
- extract MP3
|
||||
- write MP3 tags only when the setting is enabled
|
||||
- keep MP4 unchanged
|
||||
- `video` mode:
|
||||
- no MP3 tagging path
|
||||
|
||||
### 8. Add configuration surface
|
||||
|
||||
- Add the new per-playlist setting to the playlist config model and default config output.
|
||||
- Expose the setting in the playlist configuration UI, not as a global app setting.
|
||||
- Keep the naming explicit, for example `write_mp3_metadata` or `embed_mp3_metadata`.
|
||||
|
||||
## Error Handling Rules
|
||||
|
||||
- If download fails, no tagging runs.
|
||||
- If extraction fails, no tagging runs.
|
||||
- If metadata embedding is disabled, skip the tagging step entirely.
|
||||
- If tagging fails, mark the tag step as failed in logs/events but keep the MP3 file.
|
||||
- If thumbnail embedding fails, continue with text metadata only.
|
||||
- Missing `album` or `genre` is normal and should not be treated as an error.
|
||||
|
||||
## Testing Plan
|
||||
|
||||
- Unit test metadata mapping from yt-dlp info to the internal metadata model.
|
||||
- Unit test ID3 writing against a temporary MP3 fixture.
|
||||
- Unit test fallback behavior:
|
||||
- uploader missing, channel present
|
||||
- album missing
|
||||
- genre missing
|
||||
- thumbnail missing
|
||||
- Integration test the audio post-processing path with tagging mocked.
|
||||
- Integration test the both-mode MP3 path with tagging mocked.
|
||||
|
||||
## Documentation Updates
|
||||
|
||||
- Document that MP3 tags are written only for `.mp3` outputs.
|
||||
- Document the new per-playlist setting that enables or disables MP3 metadata embedding.
|
||||
- Document the field fallback rules, especially artist and album behavior.
|
||||
- Document that album art comes from the video thumbnail, not playlist artwork.
|
||||
- Document that some YouTube items will not expose album or genre information.
|
||||
|
||||
## Dependency Decision
|
||||
|
||||
- Recommended library: `mutagen`
|
||||
- Reason:
|
||||
- direct ID3 support
|
||||
- reliable field-level control
|
||||
- suitable for embedding cover art
|
||||
- avoids depending on ffmpeg metadata flags for all tag logic
|
||||
|
||||
## Delivery Order
|
||||
|
||||
- First: add config setting and defaults
|
||||
- Second: extend metadata model and add full metadata fetch
|
||||
- Third: add MP3 tag writer and field mapping
|
||||
- Fourth: add thumbnail embedding
|
||||
- Fifth: wire tagging into `audio` and `both`
|
||||
- Sixth: add tests and docs

|
||||
- Easy migrations
|
||||
- Reliable
|
||||
|
||||
SQLite is extremely important for this project.
|
||||
|
||||
Do NOT rely only on:
|
||||
|
||||
- filenames
|
||||
- folders
|
||||
- JSON

# Major Architectural Changes
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
# 1. Move to State-Based Sync Architecture
|
||||
|
||||
Current downloader logic is likely:
|
||||
|
||||
```text
|
||||
Playlist URL
|
||||
↓
|
||||
Download everything
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Replace with:
|
||||
|
||||
```text
|
||||
Remote Playlist State
|
||||
↓
|
||||
Stored Local State
|
||||
↓
|
||||
Filesystem State
|
||||
↓
|
||||
Diff Engine
|
||||
↓
|
||||
Sync Actions
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
This is the single most important change.
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
# 2. Introduce Playlist Metadata Database
|
||||
|
||||
Create persistent tracking.
|
||||
|
||||
Suggested tables:
|
||||
|
||||
## playlists
|
||||
|
||||
```sql
|
||||
CREATE TABLE playlists (
|
||||
id TEXT PRIMARY KEY,
|
||||
name TEXT,
|
||||
url TEXT,
|
||||
path TEXT,
|
||||
mode TEXT,
|
||||
auto_sync INTEGER,
|
||||
sync_interval_minutes INTEGER,
|
||||
last_sync TEXT
|
||||
);
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## playlist\_items
|
||||
|
||||
```sql
|
||||
CREATE TABLE playlist_items (
|
||||
playlist_id TEXT,
|
||||
video_id TEXT,
|
||||
title TEXT,
|
||||
playlist_index INTEGER,
|
||||
local_filename TEXT,
|
||||
downloaded INTEGER,
|
||||
last_seen TEXT,
|
||||
PRIMARY KEY (playlist_id, video_id)
|
||||
);
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
# 3. Implement Playlist Scanner Layer
|
||||
|
||||
Create dedicated metadata extraction.
|
||||
|
||||
Suggested structure:
|
||||
|
||||
```text
|
||||
core/
|
||||
├── scanner/
|
||||
│ └── playlist_scanner.py
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Responsibilities:
|
||||
|
||||
- fetch playlist entries
|
||||
- extract video IDs
|
||||
- detect unavailable videos
|
||||
- return normalized playlist state
|
||||
|
||||
Use:
|
||||
|
||||
```python
|
||||
extract_info(download=False)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
This allows playlist scanning without downloading.
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
# 4. Create Diff Engine
|
||||
|
||||
The app should compare:
|
||||
|
||||
```text
|
||||
Remote playlist
|
||||
vs
|
||||
Database state
|
||||
vs
|
||||
Filesystem state
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Output actions:
|
||||
|
||||
```text
|
||||
DOWNLOAD
|
||||
DELETE
|
||||
RENAME
|
||||
REORDER
|
||||
SKIP
|
||||
REPAIR
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Suggested file:
|
||||
|
||||
```text
|
||||
core/sync/diff_engine.py
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
This becomes the heart of the application.
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
# 5. Add Download Queue System
|
||||
|
||||
Multi-playlist sync requires a queue.
|
||||
|
||||
Suggested states:
|
||||
|
||||
```text
|
||||
Queued
|
||||
Downloading
|
||||
Converting
|
||||
Completed
|
||||
Failed
|
||||
Skipped
|
||||
Cancelled
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Suggested structure:
|
||||
|
||||
```text
|
||||
core/download/
|
||||
├── queue_manager.py
|
||||
├── downloader.py
|
||||
└── workers.py
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
# 6. Implement Stable File Naming
|
||||
|
||||
Recommended naming:
|
||||
|
||||
```text
|
||||
0001 - Title.ext
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Benefits:
|
||||
|
||||
- native filesystem sorting
|
||||
- easy reorder support
|
||||
- easy repairs
|
||||
- user friendly
|
||||
|
||||
Use:
|
||||
|
||||
```python
|
||||
%(playlist_index)04d - %(title)s.%(ext)s
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
through yt-dlp.
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
# 7. Implement Safe Reordering
|
||||
|
||||
Playlist ordering changes frequently.
|
||||
|
||||
Never rename directly.
|
||||
|
||||
Use:
|
||||
|
||||
```text
|
||||
Temporary rename pass
|
||||
↓
|
||||
Final rename pass
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Example:
|
||||
|
||||
```text
|
||||
0001.mp3 → temp_a
|
||||
0002.mp3 → temp_b
|
||||
↓
|
||||
temp_a → 0002.mp3
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Avoid collisions.
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
# 8. Implement Deletion Strategy
|
||||
|
||||
Recommended:
|
||||
|
||||
Instead of immediate delete:
|
||||
|
||||
```text
|
||||
playlist/.recycle/
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Move removed files there.
|
||||
|
||||
Benefits:
|
||||
|
||||
- safer
|
||||
- recoverable
|
||||
- easier debugging
|
||||
|
||||
Optional:
|
||||
|
||||
- auto-clean after X days
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
# 9. Redesign GUI Around Playlists
|
||||
|
||||
Current downloader GUIs are usually task-oriented.
|
||||
|
||||
You should move to:
|
||||
|
||||
```text
|
||||
Playlist-oriented UI
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Recommended sections:
|
||||
|
||||
```text
|
||||
Sidebar
|
||||
├── Playlists
|
||||
├── Queue
|
||||
├── History
|
||||
├── Logs
|
||||
└── Settings
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
# 10. Support Infinite Playlist Entries
|
||||
|
||||
Use dynamic UI generation.
|
||||
|
||||
Example:
|
||||
|
||||
```python
|
||||
class PlaylistConfig:
|
||||
url: str
|
||||
path: str
|
||||
mode: str
|
||||
auto_sync: bool
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
GUI should render from:
|
||||
|
||||
```python
|
||||
list[PlaylistConfig]
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Do NOT hardcode playlist pages.
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
# 11. Add Background Sync
|
||||
|
||||
Start simple.
|
||||
|
||||
## Phase 1
|
||||
|
||||
- Timer-based sync
|
||||
- Tray icon
|
||||
- Run minimized
|
||||
|
||||
## Phase 2
|
||||
|
||||
- Background daemon/service
|
||||
- Headless mode
|
||||
- Autostart support
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
# 12. Add Progress/Event System
|
||||
|
||||
Needed for GUI responsiveness.
|
||||
|
||||
Recommended:
|
||||
|
||||
```text
|
||||
event_bus.py
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Events:
|
||||
|
||||
```text
|
||||
DownloadStarted
|
||||
DownloadProgress
|
||||
SyncStarted
|
||||
SyncFinished
|
||||
FileDeleted
|
||||
PlaylistUpdated
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
This decouples GUI from backend.
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
# 13. Introduce Config Management
|
||||
|
||||
Recommended:
|
||||
|
||||
```text
|
||||
config.json
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Only for:
|
||||
|
||||
- app settings
|
||||
- UI preferences
|
||||
- non-relational settings
|
||||
|
||||
Do NOT store sync state in JSON.

|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
# Important Recommendations
|
||||
|
||||
## Recommendation 1
|
||||
|
||||
Treat:
|
||||
|
||||
```text
|
||||
video_id
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
as the canonical identity.
|
||||
|
||||
Never titles.
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
# Recommendation 2
|
||||
|
||||
Do NOT rely on yt-dlp archive files alone.
|
||||
|
||||
Your own DB should be the source of truth.
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
# Recommendation 3
|
||||
|
||||
Keep download logic isolated.
|
||||
|
||||
yt-dlp should be replaceable internally.
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
# Recommendation 4
|
||||
|
||||
Do not overcomplicate the GUI early.
|
||||
|
||||
Focus on sync correctness first.
|
||||
|
||||
Sync reliability matters more than appearance.
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
# Recommendation 5
|
||||
|
||||
Design everything around interruption recovery.
|
||||
|
||||
The app should survive:
|
||||
|
||||
- crashes
|
||||
- partial downloads
|
||||
- force closes
|
||||
- network failures
|
||||
- playlist changes mid-sync
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
# Recommendation 6
|
||||
|
||||
Keep the application local-first.
|
||||
|
||||
No account system. No cloud backend. No telemetry.
|
||||
|
||||
That becomes a strong project identity.
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
# Final Recommended Identity
|
||||
|
||||
Instead of:
|
||||
|
||||
```text
|
||||
YouTube Downloader GUI
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Position the project as:
|
||||
|
||||
```text
|
||||
Local-first YouTube playlist synchronization client.
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
That identity is:
|
||||
|
||||
- clearer
|
||||
- more unique
|
||||
- technically stronger
|
||||
- easier to expand later
