            Trouble with progressbar(tkinter) in a download file
            Asked 2022-Mar-21 at 06:24

            I'm starting in python and developing a youtube video/audio downloader for my wife. It is already functional, but I wanted to improve the look of it by placing a download progress bar, which can be determined or indeterminate. I've searched several places, even rolled over stackoverflow, but i couldn't find the solution for myself. Maybe my code's a little messed up, but I'm working on it.

            As I did two separate programs, I will post only the video downloader. The audio contains a few more lines, just changing the type of file I want from the link and converting it to mp3, since the tkinter downloads in mp4 only audio. Then I'm going to integrate the two into one.

            I created example which uses Label to display how many bytes remained to download.

            If you get file length then you could calculate it as percentage.

            YouTube() can use on_progress_callback and on_complete_callback to execute functions during downloading and they can be used to display progress.

            These functions runs in new threads and they can't update widgets directly (it generate error) so I use Queue() to send values from these functions to main thread. And main thread uses root.after() to execute update_status() every 100ms. And this function gets information from queue and update labels.

            Every thread gets number to later send it back and update_status() which label to update

            And similar way it could work with widgets Progressbar.

            For test I added few links directly in code - so I did't have to put them manually in every run.

            Because I use for-loops and list so I reduced code but still have 5 Entries, and can download 5 files at the same time. If I would use range(10) then I could download 10 files.

            Originally I created all_threads to keep all threads and use is_alive() to check finished threads but now I don't use this list.

            I tried to keep only elements which are really important in example - so I removed fonts, colors, images.

            Your issue doesn't have anything to do with your code.

            Youtube does no longer have a dislike count, they simply removed it.

            You just have to wait for the pafy package to be updated accordingly, or patch the package locally and remove that part by yourself.

            Keep in mind there are at least 5 different pull requests open trying to fix it.
