First of all very cool application. i was previously using a bash alias with yt-dlp with all my customizations. this does a more polished work than that.

this my script.

alias ydown="yt-dlp ${1} -v -f bestvideo+bestaudio --merge-output-format mp4 --write-thumbnail --write-info-json --embed-subs --cookies /media/wd256gb/hometube/youtube_cookies.txt"

I use jellyfin to view this videos. Thus the additional file like the thumbnail and json combined was providing me a gread library visibility. i have used the --write-info-json --write-description --write-thumbnail for the YTDLP_CUSTOM_ARGS propery thus i can see in the temp folder these files are downloaded and the metadata and subs are embedded to the file. but thumbs are ignored.

Is there a way to automate this ?
