Introduces validate_video_url to check YouTube/YouTube Music URLs for supported formats and domains, returning detailed error messages. Adds sanitize_filename to clean filenames by removing unsafe characters for filesystem compatibility.
Refactored all modules to remove dependency on the yt-dlp Python package, switching to subprocess calls to the yt-dlp binary for all extraction and update operations.

Enhanced get_asset_path to better handle frozen executables (PyInstaller, cx_Freeze) by checking multiple locations for assets. Updated app data directory logic to always use user data directories for app data, logs, config, and binaries, regardless of whether the app is frozen, ensuring consistent storage location across platforms.

Introduced a new section detailing support for 14 languages, including a table of supported languages and codes, and instructions for selecting a language. Encourages contributions for additional translations.
Replaced hardcoded status and fallback messages with localized strings across downloader, update, and main UI modules. Updated language files for all supported languages to include new keys for fallback download status, pip timeout, invalid URL, zero selected, and playlist selection dialog title. This improves internationalization and consistency of user-facing messages.
Introduces new translation keys for post-processing status messages ('merging formats' and 'removing sponsor segments') in all supported languages. Updates code to use these i18n keys in both downloader and GUI, improving localization and consistency of user-facing messages.
Documented the new proxy support feature, allowing users to specify a proxy server for downloads. This helps users understand how to use the proxy option with the application.
Refined the asset inclusion in Linux, macOS, and Windows build workflows to specify subdirectories for branding icons, Icon, and sound assets. This change ensures only the necessary asset folders are packaged, improving build consistency across platforms.
Added the 'languages' directory to the list of files included in the build artifacts for Linux, macOS, and Windows workflows. This ensures language files are packaged with the application across all platforms.
Bump actions/checkout to v5, actions/setup-python to v6, and actions/cache to v4 in build workflows for Linux, macOS, and Windows. This ensures the workflows use the latest features and security updates from GitHub Actions.
Introduces an HDR (High Dynamic Range) column to the format table in both playlist and normal modes, updating column counts, widths, and item population logic accordingly. Also adds the 'hdr' translation key to all supported languages.
Refactored column width and resize logic in the format table to use responsive sizing based on header text length and font metrics. Introduced helper methods to calculate and apply column widths for both normal and playlist modes, improving adaptability to localization and UI consistency.
Introduces new translation keys for file exists and auto-update dialogs in all supported languages. Updates the settings and main GUI to use these i18n strings instead of hardcoded English text, improving localization and user experience.
Added 'speed' and 'eta' translation keys to all language files for download status. Updated ytsage_downloader.py to use localized labels for speed and ETA in the status message.
Expanded and updated translation files (ja, pt, ru, tr, zh) with new keys for download progress, error messages, playlist info, and subtitle selection. This improves localization coverage and user feedback during download and error scenarios.
Expanded translation files (ar, de, fr, hi, id, it, pl) with additional download status messages, error messages, playlist info, and subtitle selection strings to improve localization coverage and user feedback.
Replaced hardcoded status and error messages with localized strings throughout the downloader, main GUI, update dialog, and video info components. Updated English and Spanish language files with new keys for download statuses, errors, playlist info, and UI labels to improve internationalization and maintainability.
Improves robustness of the get_quality function by handling None and non-string resolution values, and catching IndexError in addition to ValueError when parsing resolution.
The format table now displays FPS (frame rate) instead of notes in both playlist and normal modes. All translations were updated to remove the 'notes' and related size/quality fields, replacing them with 'fps'. The table column widths were adjusted for better visibility, and FPS values are color-coded based on their value. The obsolete _get_format_notes method was removed.
The select column width in the format table was increased from 50 to 80 pixels to better accommodate longer translations. This change ensures consistent column sizing across different table setups.
Added a new Japanese translation file (ja.json) and updated all language files to include Japanese in the language selection.
