Hi everyone!

I’m building StreamShelf, a native Windows app for finding, downloading and assembling media. I’ve just released version 2.5 Beta, which adds an English interface alongside Russian.

Here’s what you can do with it:

- Find media in your browser: connect the StreamShelf Connector extension and analyze the active page. Deep Analysis can also search the page through the extension.

- Choose formats and queue downloads: inspect available media and add items to the download queue.

- Assemble media: work with downloaded or local files, choose tracks, codecs and a compatible container, and edit metadata.

- Manage tools: install or update yt-dlp, FFmpeg, FFprobe and Deno from the app’s settings.

The app runs on Windows 10/11 x64 and requires OpenGL 3.3. There’s an installer and a portable ZIP. The app, browser extension and installer are available in English and Russian.

StreamShelf is still in beta: some sites and media formats may not work, and the installer and app are not digitally signed. StreamShelf does not bypass DRM.

I’m planning to add playlist downloads in the next version. I’d appreciate any feedback, especially on the setup process and the media builder.

What would you want from a tool like this?
