AudioHarvester – Lightweight YouTube Audio Downloader for Linux

[wildcardcharacter]

Hello everyone,

Id like to introduce a small project I’m working on.

AudioHarvester is a lightweight Linux desktop application written in Python and PyQt6 for downloading audio from YouTube using yt-dlp and ffmpeg.

Current features include:

• MP3, Opus and M4A support
• Audio quality selection
• Embedded cover artwork
• Metadata support
• Playlist downloads
• Download entire playlists or a single track
• Download history
• Custom output directory
• XFCE menu integration
• Installable DEB package

The project is open source and currently available as version 0.9.

Please note: The graphical user interface is currently available in German only. English language support is planned for a future release.

GitHub:
https://github.com/wildcardcharacter/AudioHarvester

I created AudioHarvester as a simple and lightweight desktop tool for Linux users who prefer a graphical interface instead of command-line tools.

Feedback, suggestions and bug reports are welcome.

Thanks for taking a look
