About Neural Extractor
Neural Extractor is a lightweight desktop application (Windows / macOS / Linux) that wraps yt‑dlp and FFmpeg in a polished GUI built with PySide6. It supports single videos, playlists and batches; grabs thumbnails and SRT captions (with fallback to auto-translation); and logs every step for full auditability. Version 0.1.0 focuses on YouTube, but the modular backend is ready for other platforms. All code is MIT-licensed and packaged with PyInstaller—no hidden binaries, no adware, no surprises.
