## Description

Downkyi is a desktop application designed for downloading video content from Bilibili. It functions as a batch downloader, allowing users to queue and retrieve multiple video files simultaneously to automate the collection of digital media libraries.

The application supports the retrieval of high-resolution media, including 8K, HDR, and Dolby Vision formats, to facilitate the creation of permanent offline archives. It also includes utility functions for media processing, such as separating audio tracks from video files and removing visual watermarks to prepare content for further editing or creative projects.

The software manages download tasks through a thread-pooled worker system and utilizes a modular plugin architecture to resolve stream URLs from web sources. It relies on a command-line multimedia framework to perform post-download operations like stream remuxing and transcoding, while maintaining user preferences and download history through structured configuration files.
