**AsyncYT** is a fully async, high-performance media downloader for 1000+ websites powered by [yt-dlp](https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp) and `ffmpeg`.  
It comes with auto binary setup, progress tracking, playlist support, search, and clean API models using `pydantic`.

## ✨ Features

- ✅ **Fully Async Architecture** – every operation is non‑blocking and `await`‑ready.
- 🎥 **Video, Audio, and Playlist Support** – download any media you throw at it.
- 🌐 **Automatic Tool Management** – will grab `yt-dlp` and `ffmpeg` for you if not installed.
- 🎛 **Advanced FFmpeg Configuration** – control codecs, bitrates, CRF, presets, and more via strongly‑typed enums.
- 📡 **Real‑Time Progress Tracking** – both download and FFmpeg processing progress, perfect for UI updates or WebSockets.
- 🧩 **Standalone AsyncFFmpeg** – use the FFmpeg engine by itself for your own media workflows (no downloading required).
- 🔍 **Media Inspection** – get detailed file info (resolution, duration, codecs, etc.) through `AsyncFFmpeg.get_file_info()`.
- ⚙️ **Asynchronous FFmpeg Processing** – run FFmpeg jobs with `AsyncFFmpeg.process()` without blocking your app.
- 🎬 **Video & Audio Codec Enums** – pick codecs safely with built‑in enums.
- ⚡ **Presets for Performance** – quickly switch between `ultrafast`, `fast`, `medium`, and more with type‑safe presets.
- 📚 **Inline Documentation** – every public method is documented and typed for easy discoverability.
- 🔗 **Codec Compatibility Helpers** – utilities to check which formats and codecs pair nicely.
