VDL - Video Downloader

Post by Grey »

GUI for youtube-dl and yt-dlp (they are present built-in and can be updated). Searches in playlists and just by request.
Translated into three languages. English, Russian and Ukrainian. It's good that the friendship of peoples is still valid here.
https://github.com/engatec/vdl

I downloaded 4 songs from the band Vacuum (Science Of The Sacred, Chant Like a Mantra, I Breathe, Let The Mountain Come To Me).
Everything works.

Download the version that is "linux-portable". Unpack and run /vdl/bin/vdl. In fact, a vdl.jar from a neighboring folder does the "dirty work" there.

Playbox.fx

Post by muggins »

Playbox.fx is a free, ad-free and still growing collection of board games. It is a private hobby project with no commercial goals.
It contains Mahjong Solitaire, Draughts, Chess, Go, Halma, Nine Men's Morris and Peg Solitaire. The games can be played against a simple AI or locally against friends. There is a portable version (zip) for Linux. There is an installer (exe) and a portable version (zip) for Windows.

https://sourceforge.net/projects/playbox/

Is a large download as it includes it's own Java runtime. I'm not sure how easy it would be to modify it to use an existing JRE.

       * Unpack PDF Attachments
       * Burst a PDF Document into Single Pages
       * Uncompress and Re-Compress Page Streams
       * Repair Corrupted PDF (Where Possible)

OPTIONS
       A summary of options is included below.

       --help, -h
              Show this summary of options.

       <input PDF files | - | PROMPT>
              A list of the input PDF files. If you plan to combine these PDFs
              (without using handles) then list files in the order you want
              them combined.  Use - to pass a single PDF into pdftk via stdin.
              Input files can be associated with handles, where a handle is
              one or more upper-case letters:

              <input PDF handle>=<input PDF filename>

              Handles are often omitted.  They are useful when specifying PDF
              passwords or page ranges, later.

              For example: A=input1.pdf QT=input2.pdf M=input3.pdf

       [input_pw <input PDF owner passwords | PROMPT>]
              Input PDF owner passwords, if necessary, are associated with
              files by using their handles:

              <input PDF handle>=<input PDF file owner password>

              If handles are not given, then passwords are associated with
              input files by order.

              Most pdftk features require that encrypted input PDF are accom-
              panied by the ~owner~ password. If the input PDF has no owner
              password, then the user password must be given, instead.  If the
              input PDF has no passwords, then no password should be given.

              When running in do_ask mode, pdftk will prompt you for a pass-
              word if the supplied password is incorrect or none was given.

       [<operation> <operation arguments>]
              Available operations are: cat, shuffle, burst, rotate, gener-
              ate_fdf, fill_form, background, multibackground, stamp, multi-
              stamp, dump_data, dump_data_utf8, dump_data_fields,
              dump_data_fields_utf8, dump_data_annots, update_info,
              update_info_utf8, attach_files, unpack_files. Some operations
              takes additional arguments, described below.

              If this optional argument is omitted, then pdftk runs in 'fil-
              ter' mode.  Filter mode takes only one PDF input and creates a
              new PDF after applying all of the output options, like encryp-
              tion and compression.

          cat [<page ranges>]
                 Assembles (catenates) pages from input PDFs to create a new
                 PDF. Use cat to merge PDF pages or to split PDF pages from
                 documents. You can also use it to rotate PDF pages. Page
                 order in the new PDF is specified by the order of the given
                 page ranges. Page ranges are described like this:

                 <input PDF handle>[<begin page number>[-<end page num-
                 ber>[<qualifier>]]][<page rotation>]

                 Where the handle identifies one of the input PDF files, and
                 the beginning and ending page numbers are one-based refer-
                 ences to pages in the PDF file.  The qualifier can be even,
                 odd, or ~, and the page rotation can be north, south, east,
                 west, left, right, or down.

                 If a PDF handle is given but no pages are specified, then the
                 entire PDF is used. If no pages are specified for any of the
                 input PDFs, then the input PDFs' bookmarks are also merged
                 and included in the output.

                 If the handle is omitted from the page range, then the pages
                 are taken from the first input PDF.

                 The even qualifier causes pdftk to use only the even-numbered
                 PDF pages, so 1-6even yields pages 2, 4 and 6 in that order.
                 6-1even yields pages 6, 4 and 2 in that order.

                 The odd qualifier works similarly to the even.

                 Pages can be subtracted from a page range using the ~ quali-
                 fier followed by a page range. For instance, 1-20~5-6 and
                 1-20~5~6 are equivalent to 1-4 7-20, and ~5 yields all pages
                 except page 5. Depending on your shell, you may need to quote
                 this argument because of the ~ at the beginning.

                 The page rotation setting can cause pdftk to rotate pages and
                 documents.  Each option sets the page rotation as follows (in
                 degrees): north: 0, east: 90, south: 180, west: 270, left:
                 -90, right: +90, down: +180. left, right, and down make rela-
                 tive adjustments to a page's rotation.

                 If no arguments are passed to cat, then pdftk combines all
                 input PDFs in the order they were given to create the output.

                 NOTES:
                 * <end page number> may be less than <begin page number>.
                 * The keyword end may be used to reference the final page of
                 a document instead of a page number.
                 * Reference a single page by omitting the ending page number.
                 * The handle may be used alone to represent the entire PDF
                 document, e.g., B1-end is the same as B.
                 * You can reference page numbers in reverse order by prefix-
                 ing them with the letter r. For example, page r1 is the last
                 page of the document, r2 is the next-to-last page of the doc-
                 ument, and rend is the first page of the document. You can
                 use this prefix in ranges, too, for example r3-r1 is the last
                 three pages of a PDF.

                 Page Range Examples without Handles:
                 1\-endeast - rotate entire document 90 degrees
                 5 11 20 - take single pages from input PDF
                 5-25oddwest - take odd pages in range, rotate 90 degrees
                 6-1 - reverse pages in range from input PDF

                 Page Range Examples Using Handles:
                 Say A=in1.pdf B=in2.pdf, then:
                 A1-21 - take range from in1.pdf
                 Bend-1odd - take all odd pages from in2.pdf in reverse order
                 A72 - take a single page from in1.pdf
                 A1-21 Beven A72 - assemble pages from both in1.pdf and
                 in2.pdf
                 Awest - rotate entire in1.pdf document 90 degrees
                 B - use all of in2.pdf
                 A2-30evenleft - take the even pages from the range, remove 90
                 degrees from each page's rotation
                 A A - catenate in1.pdf with in1.pdf
                 Aevenwest Aoddeast - apply rotations to even pages, odd pages
                 from in1.pdf
                 Awest Bwest Bdown - catenate rotated documents

          shuffle [<page ranges>]
                 Collates pages from input PDFs to create a new PDF.  Works
                 like the cat operation except that it takes one page at a
                 time from each page range to assemble the output PDF.  If one
                 range runs out of pages, it continues with the remaining
                 ranges.  Ranges can use all of the features described above
                 for cat, like reverse page ranges, multiple ranges from a
                 single PDF, and page rotation.  This feature was designed to
                 help collate PDF pages after scanning paper documents.

          burst  Splits a single input PDF document into individual pages.
                 Also creates a report named doc_data.txt which is the same as
                 the output from dump_data.  The output section can contain a
                 printf-styled format string to name these pages.  For exam-
                 ple, if you want pages named page_01.pdf, page_02.pdf, etc.,
                 pass output page_%02d.pdf to pdftk. If the pattern is omit-
                 ted, then a default pattern g_%04d.pdf is appended and pro-
                 duces pages named pg_0001.pdf, pg_0002.pdf, etc.  Encryption
                 can be applied to the output by appending output options such
                 as owner_pw, e.g.:

                 pdftk in.pdf burst owner_pw foopass

          rotate [<page ranges>]
                 Takes a single input PDF and rotates just the specified
                 pages.  All other pages remain unchanged.  The page order
                 remains unchanged.  Specify the pages to rotate using the
                 same notation as you would with cat, except you omit the
                 pages that you aren't rotating:

                 [<begin page number>[-<end page number>[<qualifier>]]][<page
                 rotation>]

                 The qualifier can be even or odd, and the page rotation can
                 be north, south, east, west, left, right, or down.

                 Each option sets the page rotation as follows (in degrees):
                 north: 0, east: 90, south: 180, west: 270, left: -90, right:
                 +90, down: +180. left, right, and down make relative adjust-
                 ments to a page's rotation.

                 The given order of the pages doesn't change the page order in
                 the output.

          generate_fdf
                 Reads a single input PDF file and generates an FDF file suit-
                 able for fill_form out of it to the given output filename or
                 (if no output is given) to stdout.  Does not create a new
                 PDF.

          fill_form <FDF data filename | XFDF data filename | - | PROMPT>
                 Fills the single input PDF's form fields with the data from
                 an FDF file, XFDF file or stdin. Enter the data filename
                 after fill_form, or use - to pass the data via stdin, like
                 so:

                 pdftk form.pdf fill_form data.fdf output form.filled.pdf

                 If the input FDF file includes Rich Text formatted data in
                 addition to plain text, then the Rich Text data is packed
                 into the form fields as well as the plain text.  Pdftk also
                 sets a flag that cues Reader/Acrobat to generate new field
                 appearances based on the Rich Text data.  So when the user
                 opens the PDF, the viewer will create the Rich Text appear-
                 ance on the spot.  If the user's PDF viewer does not support
                 Rich Text, then the user will see the plain text data
                 instead.  If you flatten this form before Acrobat has a
                 chance to create (and save) new field appearances, then the
                 plain text field data is what you'll see.

                 Also see the flatten, need_appearances, and replacement_font
                 options.

          background <background PDF filename | - | PROMPT>
                 Applies a PDF watermark to the background of a single input
                 PDF.  Pass the background PDF's filename after background
                 like so:

                 pdftk in.pdf background back.pdf output out.pdf

                 Pdftk uses only the first page from the background PDF and
                 applies it to every page of the input PDF.  This page is
                 scaled and rotated as needed to fit the input page.  You can
                 use - to pass a background PDF into pdftk via stdin.

                 If the input PDF does not have a transparent background (such
                 as a PDF created from page scans) then the resulting back-
                 ground won't be visible - use the stamp operation instead.

          multibackground <background PDF filename | - | PROMPT>
                 Same as the background operation, but applies each page of
                 the background PDF to the corresponding page of the input
                 PDF.  If the input PDF has more pages than the stamp PDF,
                 then the final stamp page is repeated across these remaining
                 pages in the input PDF.

          stamp <stamp PDF filename | - | PROMPT>
                 This behaves just like the background operation except it
                 overlays the stamp PDF page on top of the input PDF docu-
                 ment's pages.  This works best if the stamp PDF page has a
                 transparent background.

          multistamp <stamp PDF filename | - | PROMPT>
                 Same as the stamp operation, but applies each page of the
                 background PDF to the corresponding page of the input PDF.
                 If the input PDF has more pages than the stamp PDF, then the
                 final stamp page is repeated across these remaining pages in
                 the input PDF.

          dump_data
                 Reads a single input PDF file and reports its metadata, book-
                 marks (a/k/a outlines), page metrics (media, rotation and
                 labels), data embedded by STAMPtk (see STAMPtk's embed
                 option) and other data to the given output filename or (if no
                 output is given) to stdout.  Non-ASCII characters are encoded
                 as XML numerical entities.  Does not create a new PDF.

          dump_data_utf8
                 Same as dump_data except that the output is encoded as UTF-8.

          dump_data_fields
                 Reads a single input PDF file and reports form field statis-
                 tics to the given output filename or (if no output is given)
                 to stdout. Non-ASCII characters are encoded as XML numerical
                 entities. Does not create a new PDF.

          dump_data_fields_utf8
                 Same as dump_data_fields except that the output is encoded as
                 UTF-8.

          dump_data_annots
                 This operation currently reports only link annotations.
                 Reads a single input PDF file and reports annotation informa-
                 tion to the given output filename or (if no output is given)
                 to stdout. Non-ASCII characters are encoded as XML numerical
                 entities. Does not create a new PDF.

          update_info <info data filename | - | PROMPT>
                 Changes the bookmarks, page labels, page sizes, page rota-
                 tions, and metadata in a single PDF's Info dictionary to
                 match the input data file. The input data file uses the same
                 syntax as the output from dump_data. Non-ASCII characters
                 should be encoded as XML numerical entities.

                 This operation does not change the metadata stored in the
                 PDF's XMP stream, if it has one. (For this reason you should
                 include a ModDate entry in your updated info with a current
                 date/timestamp, format: D:YYYYMMDDHHmmSS, e.g. D:201307241346
                 - omitted data after YYYY revert to default values.)

                 For example:

                 pdftk in.pdf update_info in.info output out.pdf

          update_info_utf8 <info data filename | - | PROMPT>
                 Same as update_info except that the input is encoded as
                 UTF-8.

          attach_files <attachment filenames | PROMPT> [to_page <page number |
          PROMPT> | relation <relationship>]
                 Packs arbitrary files into a PDF using PDF's file attachment
                 features. More than one attachment may be listed after
                 attach_files. Attachments are added at the document level
                 unless the optional to_page option is given, in which case
                 the files are attached to the given page number (the first
                 page is 1, the final page is end). Attachments at the docu-
                 ment level may be tagged with a relationship among Source,
                 Data, Alternative, Supplement, and Unspecified (default).

                 For example:

                 pdftk in.pdf attach_files table1.html table2.html to_page 6
                 output out.pdf

                 pdftk in.pdf attach_files in.tex relation Source output
                 out.pdf

          unpack_files
                 Copies all of the attachments from the input PDF into the
                 current folder or to an output directory given after output.
                 For example:

                 pdftk report.pdf unpack_files output ~/atts/

                 or, interactively:

                 pdftk report.pdf unpack_files output PROMPT

       [output <output filename | - | PROMPT>]
              The output PDF filename may not be set to the name of an input
              filename. Use - to output to stdout.  When using the dump_data
              operation, use output to set the name of the output data file.
              When using the unpack_files operation, use output to set the
              name of an output directory.  When using the burst operation,
              you can use output to control the resulting PDF page filenames
              (described above).

       [encrypt_40bit | encrypt_128bit | encrypt_aes128]
              If an output PDF user or owner password is given, the output PDF
              encryption algorithm defaults to AES-128. The weaker RC4 40-bit
              and RC4 128-bit algorithms can be chosen by specifying
              encrypt_40bit or encrypt_128bit (discouraged).

       [allow <permissions>]
              Permissions are applied to the output PDF only if an encryption
              strength is specified or an owner or user password is given.  If
              permissions are not specified, they default to 'none,' which
              means all of the following features are disabled.

              The permissions section may include one or more of the following
              features:

              Printing
                     Top Quality Printing

              DegradedPrinting
                     Lower Quality Printing

              ModifyContents
                     Also allows Assembly

              Assembly

              CopyContents
                     Also allows ScreenReaders

              ScreenReaders

              ModifyAnnotations
                     Also allows FillIn

              FillIn

              AllFeatures
                     Allows the user to perform all of the above, and top
                     quality printing.

       [owner_pw <owner password | PROMPT>]

       [user_pw <user password | PROMPT>]
              If an encryption strength is given but no passwords are sup-
              plied, then the owner and user passwords remain empty, which
              means that the resulting PDF may be opened and its security
              parameters altered by anybody.

       [compress | uncompress]
              These are only useful when you want to edit PDF code in a text
              editor like vim or emacs.  Remove PDF page stream compression by
              applying the uncompress filter. Use the compress filter to
              restore compression.

       [flatten]
              Use this option to merge an input PDF's interactive form fields
              (and their data) with the PDF's pages. Only one input PDF may be
              given. Sometimes used with the fill_form operation.

       [need_appearances]
              Sets a flag that cues Reader/Acrobat to generate new field
              appearances based on the form field values.  Use this when fill-
              ing a form with non-ASCII text to ensure the best presentation
              in Adobe Reader or Acrobat.  It won't work when combined with
              the flatten option.

       [replacement_font <font name>]
              Use the specified font to display text in form fields. This
              option is useful when filling a form with non-ASCII text that is
              not supported by the fonts included in the input PDF. font name
              may be either the file name or the family name of a font, but
              using a file name is more reliable. Currently only TrueType
              fonts with Unicode text are supported.

       [keep_first_id | keep_final_id]
              When combining pages from multiple PDFs, use one of these
              options to copy the document ID from either the first or final
              input document into the new output PDF. Otherwise pdftk creates
              a new document ID for the output PDF. When no operation is
              given, pdftk always uses the ID from the (single) input PDF.

       [drop_xfa]
              If your input PDF is a form created using Acrobat 7 or Adobe
              Designer, then it probably has XFA data.  Filling such a form
              using pdftk yields a PDF with data that fails to display in
              Acrobat 7 (and 6?).  The workaround solution is to remove the
              form's XFA data, either before you fill the form using pdftk or
              at the time you fill the form. Using this option causes pdftk to
              omit the XFA data from the output PDF form.

              This option is only useful when running pdftk on a single input
              PDF.  When assembling a PDF from multiple inputs using pdftk,
              any XFA data in the input is automatically omitted.

       [drop_xmp]
              Many PDFs store document metadata using both an Info dictionary
              (old school) and an XMP stream (new school).  Pdftk's
              update_info operation can update the Info dictionary, but not
              the XMP stream.  The proper remedy for this is to include a
              ModDate entry in your updated info with a current date/time-
              stamp. The date/timestamp format is: D:YYYYMMDDHHmmSS, e.g.
              D:201307241346 - omitted data after YYYY revert to default val-
              ues. This newer ModDate should cue PDF viewers that the Info
              metadata is more current than the XMP data.

              Alternatively, you might prefer to remove the XMP stream from
              the PDF altogether - that's what this option does.  Note that
              objects inside the PDF might have their own, separate XMP meta-
              data streams, and that drop_xmp does not remove those.  It only
              removes the PDF's document-level XMP stream.

       [verbose]
              By default, pdftk runs quietly. Append verbose to the end and it
              will speak up.

       [dont_ask | do_ask]
              Depending on the compile-time settings (see ASK_ABOUT_WARNINGS),
              pdftk might prompt you for further input when it encounters a
              problem, such as a bad password. Override this default behavior
              by adding dont_ask (so pdftk won't ask you what to do) or do_ask
              (so pdftk will ask you what to do).

              When running in dont_ask mode, pdftk will over-write files with
              its output without notice.

EXAMPLES
       Collate scanned pages
         pdftk A=even.pdf B=odd.pdf shuffle A B output collated.pdf
         or if odd.pdf is in reverse order:
         pdftk A=even.pdf B=odd.pdf shuffle A Bend-1 output collated.pdf

       The following examples use actual passwords as command line parameters,
       which is discouraged (see the SECURITY CONSIDERATIONS section).

       Decrypt a PDF
         pdftk secured.pdf input_pw foopass output unsecured.pdf

       Encrypt a PDF using AES-128 (the default), withhold all permissions
       (the default)
         pdftk 1.pdf output 1.128.pdf owner_pw foopass

       Same as above, except password 'baz' must also be used to open output
       PDF
         pdftk 1.pdf output 1.128.pdf owner_pw foo user_pw baz

       Same as above, except printing is allowed (once the PDF is open)
         pdftk 1.pdf output 1.128.pdf owner_pw foo user_pw baz allow printing

       Apply RCA 40-bit encryption to output, revoking all permissions (the
       default). Set the owner PW to 'foopass'.
         pdftk 1.pdf 2.pdf cat output 3.pdf encrypt_40bit owner_pw foopass

       Join two files, one of which requires the password 'foopass'. The out-
       put is not encrypted.
         pdftk A=secured.pdf 2.pdf input_pw A=foopass cat output 3.pdf

       Join in1.pdf and in2.pdf into a new PDF, out1.pdf
         pdftk in1.pdf in2.pdf cat output out1.pdf
         or (using handles):
         pdftk A=in1.pdf B=in2.pdf cat A B output out1.pdf
         or (using wildcards):
         pdftk *.pdf cat output combined.pdf

       Remove page 13 from in1.pdf to create out1.pdf
         pdftk in.pdf cat 1-12 14-end output out1.pdf
         or:
         pdftk A=in1.pdf cat A1-12 A14-end output out1.pdf

       Uncompress PDF page streams for editing the PDF in a text editor (e.g.,
       vim, emacs)
         pdftk doc.pdf output doc.unc.pdf uncompress

       Repair a PDF's corrupted XREF table and stream lengths, if possible
         pdftk broken.pdf output fixed.pdf

       Burst a single PDF document into pages and dump its data to
       doc_data.txt
         pdftk in.pdf burst

       Burst a single PDF document into encrypted pages. Allow low-quality
       printing
         pdftk in.pdf burst owner_pw foopass allow DegradedPrinting

       Write a report on PDF document metadata and bookmarks to report.txt
         pdftk in.pdf dump_data output report.txt

       Rotate the first PDF page to 90 degrees clockwise
         pdftk in.pdf cat 1east 2-end output out.pdf

       Rotate an entire PDF document to 180 degrees
         pdftk in.pdf cat 1-endsouth output out.pdf

SECURITY CONSIDERATIONS
       Passing a password as a command line parameter is insecure because it
       can get saved into the shell's history and be accessible by other users
       via /proc. Use the keyword PROMPT and input any passwords via standard
       input instead.
