Made with HARPA AI
I spent half a day messing around with Tauri / Vue trying to figure out how to customize the GUI and in half an hour I had this working as demonstrated and had expanded it out with extra functionality. This is an awesome vid and so much simplier with an interface that still looks super clean and modern. I'd heard mention of tkinter before when I was looking into and experimenting with PyQt, but you've sold me on it. Can't wait to check out your other and more recent videos!
first i found out about pytube and decided to combine it with tkinter in a project. than i was told that there is already a website that does the same thing i wanted to create. now i find out that there is already a tutorial on how to build such a project. at this point i'm dead inside...
It's okay if you are trying to make something that's already available, it's a good feeling building something on your own and seeing it work.
@@prohubbetaespecially when you have specific interests that deviate from the project and troubleshoot your own code
What is the website name ?
You should still try, what if your one is better and faster.
I feel the same
This is AMAZING! Just one minor (really nit thing) - PEP8 for python doesn't indicate the usage of camel case for functions, snake case should be used there (start_download(), for example)
Great tutorial man. Kudos!.
I was unable to downloaded a couple videos (yours included and another from Rick Beato) and entered a question here to see if anyone else have the same issue. And then tried a few more videos and voilà, it worked as expected!
Thanks so much for sharing this with us. I learnt a lot from it.
cheers!
yes it dint download
New sub here! I wrote an script that uses pytube w/ no GUI. This tutorial provided a great start to taking the app to the next level. Well done, mate!
Thank you so much for this amazing tutorial. I had a class project and I had no idea how to make a progress bar for a downloader?!!!! and I'm not good at understanding documentations so this video saved me 💚
I have not rebuilt it yet, but really amazing. :) I would use pyinstaller as well to create an executable
That wont work as expected. Windows will detect it as a virus so is useless, to be honest
Loved this one, will try to implement a launcher for an online game and see how it goes... I am curious to know if I will be able to make it work by downloading the version updates of the files. can't wait to see more content like this one.
Its been a while me learning to code. Now I was learning Tkinter. I want to create a hospital management software But i am not able to make so , Any suggestions!

Great video, but i am stuck. I have followewd the instructions but my video is not downloading and i get both print messages. link invalid and download complete.
Same!!
Same
Do more python content please !!
Yes !, nice to see Python content in your channel 🙂
More to come!
@@developedbyed great 😎😎
Hey, thank you so much! this is the best TH-cam tutorial for a download i found. I tried about 8 different tutorials but this is by far the best!
Could you perhaps show us how to implement a folder selection too? i would love to chose where i download my files! :) Big thanks for the video!
27:35 you don't need to convert percentage_of_completion to float since it's already a float
So I really like this and I followed the video step by step and it works great, except... it doesn't show the progress bar or percentage rising while running the code. In fact the whole console goes unresponsive until the download is complete After it's complete everything updates and shows as one would expect but it's not running while the download is progressing. Do you know of any fix to this?
I'm struggling with this also. What I found is that you have to use threading. Which I have done but it still doesn't work. Only thing that threading helps with is stop the freezing of the GUI.
Still not getting any progress.. I don't know if it's Pytube that has a bug or it's my code
Same! @developedbyed please help!
Me too! My window just stops responding...
@@nicow6975 it stops and comes back, i tried a small video and it went from 0 to 100 also once
it works if you try downloading a large video like this specifc video it gave progress
Same, My window is stops responding
nice, i've learnt and established alot from this video.👍
Thanks, you solved my problem downloading videos (especially with IDM)
Ok so our gorgeous teacher on the internet is going to teach us Python too? That sounds interesting and exciting. Hopefully you will release a real world project in Python soon. 🙏🙏🙏
which IDE are you using and how did you get your IDE to work???
I graduated from computer science college, and I still can't get my IDEs to work at home, for like any language, I always have compiler problems, or framework problems, or I can't include some libraries, I'm tired T_T
hes using Visual Studio Code.
Great tutorial about developing a cool looking gui in Python. Thanks
thanks man you solved alot of my problems like the one on 5:54
Love this. Please do more.
you are the king of python......................
Great project 💪🏻
Thankyou so much!! you really helped me today!!!
Yay! This is JUST what I was thinking of doing, but didn`t know where to start. I like :)
Edit: I made it. Really fun and satisfying project.
Can you share it? I need it for project 😭

I am planning to make this in the following days, if you interested I could send it later.

TEST here is the code actually, to test if this can be done on TH-cam.
import tkinter
import customtkinter
from pytube import TH-cam
## Something is not right here - The YT was age restricted required login
def startDownload():
try:
ytLink = link.get()
ytObject = TH-cam(ytLink, on_progress_callback=on_progress)
video = ytObject.streams.get_highest_resolution()
title.configure(text=ytObject.title, text_color="white")
finishLabel.configure(text="")
video.download()
finishLabel.configure(text="Downloaded!", text_color="white")
except:
finishLabel.configure(text="Download error", text_color="red")
#from TH-cam class from pytube
def on_progress(stream, chunk, bytes_remaining):
total_size = stream.filesize
bytes_downloaded = total_size - bytes_remaining
percentage_of_completion = bytes_downloaded / total_size * 100
per = str(int(percentage_of_completion))
pPercentage.configure(text=per + '%')
pPercentage.update()
# Update progress bar
progressBar.set(float(percentage_of_completion) / 100)

yoooooo i learned web front-end developement from you long ting time ago,and here we are learning again from the best.i missed learning from you.10/10 from now❤❤❤❤❤❤
Please do another video where perhaps you combine this desktop app with backend. Node backend to be specific.
Thank you for great content 👏
Nice.... need also one about PyQT, please.
When i try to click download it give me this error: "Error while downloading: get_throttling_function_name: could not find match for multiple
You may need to update pytube or use an alternative."
Really loved it ...!
Wow! Amazing content.
Great demo - thanks :)
Where can I get inspo for clean modern UI's I can't seem to look up on yt cuz it gives random stuff that doesn't fit the description of what I'm trying to look for😭
'pip install tkinter' command doesn't work for me. Googled and it says use 'pip install tk' - I wonder why this is?
Edit: Figured it out. The error said 'ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'packaging'' - just did a 'pip install packaging' and it worked!!
Thanks for the solution, had the same problem!
my program is working but the video from youtube does not download everything works but file is nowhere to be find ? can anyone help
Good work man
You are a legend Ed
not working for me ... still getting invalid link whatever I do having the same code you have.. maybe the pytube library changed ? anybody ?
same, not sure if the pytube library is outdated
Found the fix, Pytube is the problem, its using an outdated library, therefore you need to use ytdlp, and fix the code:
import tkinter
import customtkinter
from yt_dlp import TH-camDL
def start_download():
yt_dlp_link = link.get()
if not yt_dlp_link.strip():
print("Error: The URL cannot be empty.")
return
try:
# Configuration for TH-camDL
ydl_opts = {
'format': 'best',
'outtmpl': '%(title)s.%(ext)s'
}
with TH-camDL(ydl_opts) as yt_dlp_object:
yt_dlp_object.download([yt_dlp_link])
print("Download Complete!")
except Exception as e:
print("Error:", e)
# System settings
customtkinter.set_appearance_mode("System")
customtkinter.set_default_color_theme("blue")
# Our app Frame
app = customtkinter.CTk()
app.geometry("720x480")
app.title("TH-cam Downloader")
# Adding UI Elements
title = customtkinter.CTkLabel(app, text="Insert a youtube link")
title.pack(padx=10, pady=10)
# Link input
url_var = tkinter.StringVar()
link = customtkinter.CTkEntry(app, width=350, height=40, textvariable=url_var)
link.pack()
# Download button
download = customtkinter.CTkButton(app, text="Download", command=start_download)
download.pack(padx=10, pady=10)
# Run app
app.mainloop()
This should get it to work.
great video! now we don't have to pay google for a video!! i have to ask, where is the file saved? i'm brand new to this so that should be a part of the code
those who face promblem to install tkinter you can also run this command =>> pip install tk then can import ==> import tkinter as tk
great tutorial there
Love this tutorial!
How would you make the progress bar go back to 0% on a new link being inputted so that when you press download with the new link it will update?
write in the top of function start_downloading
label_finish.configure(text="")
bar_Progress.set(0)
label_Progress.configure("0 %")
for reset title and progress
Tip: Don't name your file "main". It is a no no in python. Internally, the python program in memory is named "main" also.
You can see this in code if __name__ == "__main__" At the very least it might cause confusion.
I named mine as TH-camDownloader.py
Thanks, was able to build everything but I could not download the video. Well, it did download but can't find in my python directory.
Well done!!
Mine is saying downloaded but I can't find the video anywhere on my computer. I don't know what I would be doing wrong. Would I not have to code into the program a folder destination?
Nice tutorial
Nice one bro.
Hello i am trying to run the code but I'm getting a TypeError: Variable.trace_add() missing 1 positional argument 'callback'. Can anyone help?
hi this tutorial is amazing and it also worked for me but i just wanted to ask you if you can make another tutorial with all the same things in this tutorial but just adding a resolution buttons with different resolution
ytObject.streams.get_by_resolution("INSERT YOUR DESIRED RESOLUTION HERE") instead of ytObject.streams.get_highest_resolution(). You can combine it with a DropDown button to select your resolution instead of a regular button for example.
Great tut, how do i center the form on screen coz it seems not to work in custom tkinter
Create this with NodeJs and make a video on it if possible
By just seeing one video i was becomes yours super fan ✨

Can we specify wher the file is downloaded? Even if it is hardcoded...? I think its downloading in the project folder in this example.
Love the python content!
Didnot know Jack Dorsey had youtube channel
Im not sure why but everything works other than when i try to download a video it just says the "Download Error" and i cant get around it
i have the same problem, so i searched it on google.
google says this: "The original pytube library no longer works, so we need to use the pytube3 library, which only works with Python3 and not with Python2"
I love it ! Thank you so much !
put a checkbox onit that can open in vlc after dl complete! that would be better and a button top open the folder the fil that dl is in!
thanks man
Progress bar is indeed a problem, and somehow my labels as well.
Are you running in IDLE or VS Code?
For some reason - when I ran in VS Code- as he does in his video - it implements completely accurate.
I pored over the code and wrote down the code line by line on paper and compared with what he typed in the video.
Realized today - that he used VS Code terminal
and I ran it from IDLE
when I ran from IDLE the app works - it downloads
but the GUI doesn't operate completely accurately
like the progress bar didn't update
it was shown
but showed complete at the end
try VS Code to run - it should work?
Thank you, very useful and simple. Is it legal to deploy on my website?
Great video.
I dont get any errors with this code, however, its says invalid link AND download complete and there is no sign of the video. I have checked several folders for it but assume it just didnt come down after several attempts.
Ik its a late reply, but Pytube isnt maintained anymore and thus, doesnt work. I used yt-dlp instead
Your font police is really awesome! What is it please?
I have a issue at 3:39 theres a error that says customtkinter does not defined ??? Can someone help pls
how can we convert this to .exe format (or installable format) and use as a normal application in any PC
pyinstaller duh
Amazing tutorial!
Please sir make a video on making a website that generates ai images using Stable Diffusion api with python, etc 🙏🙏🙏
hey bro! what vscode theme do you use? i like it 😅
Please where does the video download to ?
To the folder where the code is run from.
I tried using this video as the test subject for downloading, and pytube tells me it's age restricted, for some reason.
Super !!! I loved it :
Having an issue where the .streams method isn't being recognized in VS code for some reason. When I try to download a yt link, I get both the invalid error and download complete to print out to terminal, but there's no file downloaded. Wondering why the .stream method isn't being recognized. Any ideas/help is appreciated!
Otherwise, easy to follow video and it was nice to see the errors come up so it can help newbies like myself get the ropes.
Found my issue, forgot the s somehow in streams when I kept thinking it was there. I think it also helped that I restarted VS code and updated PowerShell to the latest version so IntelliSense pulled the method up.
I'm have the same issue. I tried you're solution was well.
for some reason mine wont download or it has but i can't find the file lol
I can see the box and i did get a download progress just no file
Good morning,
Very good video and very informative, I tried to copy the code, but I have a lot of problems following the writing.
would it be possible to give me a link where i could download the source code.
Thank you in advance for your understanding.

It says Download Complete, but i cannot find the video file anywhere
I think it automatically saves into your python directory.
So wherever python default saved to on your computer.
@@mz5234 is there a way to change where it downloads too?
@@Ineedsumrandom hello there!
Missed this
I was trying to figure that out --let my projects sit on the back burner for about 3-4 weeks now
maybe you have already found out
will add the answer here -- when I figure it out
I am guessing though
-- you have to specify the PATH
you can find the PATH of the generic Python directory - where the Python program lives
and then copy and paste that PATH
and then - from there --- store that in some variable
and switch - to the PATH_new you want.
don't quote me though
stuck cleaning the garage atm
Can anyone describe to me why:
running the same code in MS VS Code terminal leads to a more accurate result?
When I ran the same exact code from the IDLE interface-- the GUI Window - didn't update the progressbar in real time.
The video downloaded - but the progress bar didn't implement in real time on the GUI.
When I run it in MS VS Code- it works exactly the same as developedbyed's video.
I didn't change anything with the code.
spent hours and hours looking at it - couldn't figure out why.
then watched the video again today - and realized he's using VS Code - and I didn't run it from VS Code.
Shouldn't the result be the same?
(Pin this)
if you had any problem when you installed pytube , tkinter or custumtkinter in the integrated terminal or any terminal , please restart vs code after installation. I had to go on reddit posts and panic!
Absolutely love this one. Would like to see more. Thanks
I have customtkinter installed and updated, but yet it says I dont. So I cant run the code.
Anyone else with the same problem?

Videos with age restrictions cannot be downloaded. How are we going to save it?
I got problem please anyone help me out. The problem is that whenever I try to download any video and click on download button the program sops responding
mine says it failed and then saved and it doesnt even show in the directory!?!?!?!
saves in your default Python folder
which is where Python lives on your computer.
there's probably a way to change the directory to one you create
left this project on hold - so haven't managed to do that myself yet
17:00 Progress loading bar (start)
is there a way to make another button wich only downloads mp3

I recreated the same project but when I run the script, my window does not responds or prints download error.
please help me if somebody can
how can I change the download chunk size in pytube?? by default it is 9MB, and I want to make it less than that
I wish i knew more code.
The beauty of python .
great video, more video on python could be great.
Where does it download?
"I think we have some sort of....." that is my experience with python on windows also :)
how to solve downloading error whenever i am pasting the link and click on download it is showing downloading error
what theme package do you use?
Can anybody help me find where it saved the downloaded file? I can't find it on my PC anywhere.
shouldn't it be at the same path as where you run the script from?
or it could depends on how pytube is configured?
the path where you run the script from and the path where the script is are not the same.
the path where you run the script from = if you're currently at the "D:\" path and then you call the script from there, it'll download the video to "D:\"
the path where the script is = where you store the script. let's say it's in "C:\project\script.py", it should download the video to the same folder as the script.
having issues installing tkinter. getting modulenotfound error: no module named tkinter even after pip installing..
Idk if oyu fixed it, similar thing happened to him in the video, just change the python interpreter to a different one in vscode
Can Someone send me the code from this video without me having to manually typing everything here
No😂 at least i am not going to cus i cant figer it out
