So theres the "bug"/bug of the FFmpeg console window that pops up on windows because of how FFmpeg works which high jacks your mouse/active window" and prevents you from doing anything else cause it high jacks your cursor and I would assume most people are starting the download of album X and then want to search and find album Y but are unable to because of the FFmpeg window high jacking the cursor/"active window". If you install Microsoft Power Toys and use Always On Top with Windows Key + Ctrl + T while on the TIDAL-Downloader-NG GUI window it will keep the TIDAL-Downloader-NG GUI window active and always on top so while you have stuff downloading you can also be searching for other things to add to the download queue. I tested that and would assume the same can be said for something like Chrome so if you want to let some things download while you're watching YouTube you should be able to do that too.
P.S. I also still stand by my 2 other feature requests cause like I said they were not meant as a work around for the FFmpeg window pop up cause I think they are actually good feature that should be added they just worked out as a nice sort of work around
