Yt-Dlp Commands: The Complete Tutorial for Beginners
```
Hopefully that saves someone some extra googling.
For more hardcore automated archival, I do this on linux (which doesn't have the character length issues) and I'd recommend looking at the following for inspiration
- https://github.com/TheFrenchGhosty/TheFrenchGhostys-Ultimate... (Supports sponsorblock, and it turns out truly finding the best quality is pretty complex)
- https://github.com/dmn001/youtube_channel_archiver (A .conf file is very nice to use.)
- https://github.com/dbeley/youtube-archiver (how to set up a systemd service)
- Self hosted YouTube media server – Tube Archivist
- Best YouTube Downloader?

Noobie needs help making a config file for yt-dlp
Note that this option is somewhat broken. At least it was for years. For this reason, there are extra scripts that try to grab the actual best video + audio like https://github.com/TheFrenchGhosty/TheFrenchGhostys-Ultimate-YouTube-DL-Scripts-Collection
yt-dlp has a "best" option but it does not work all that great. Use this script instead

Youtube-dl Hosting Ban Paves the Way to Privatized Censorship
If you want to do complicated bullshit, like setting up automated downloading of channels for archiving, then I recommend this: https://github.com/TheFrenchGhosty/TheFrenchGhostys-Ultimate-YouTube-DL-Scripts-Collection : Initially might seem confusing, this is a good set of scripts for looking at how yt-dlp is "supposed" to be set up script-wise. Good for manually messing with things and setting up a cron job to run. These scripts will assist in downloading more than just the video, like thumbnails and metadata, and comments.

Stop using youtube-dl and use yt-dlp instead.
yt-dlp also scripts SO nicely. Take a look at this.

Is there any way to access YouTube within Plex?
Second, you need something to download the youtube videos so that they are available as files in Plex. for that I use the youtube-dl-server project because it does a few things:
-
video downloader
I use a youtube-dl-server fork which has the yt-dlp as option with nbr23/youtube-dl-server:yt-dlp
- YouTube metadata and library suggestions, help please
-
I made a self-hosted video-hosting website and archival manager for yt-dlp
Not quite the same idea/feel, but I've been using youtube-dl-server for some time. It supports/has yt-dlp as an option. if anyone is just looking for similar projects in general.
-
reddit is forcing the SaveVideo bot offline or face legal action.
Or better yet, just host something like youtube-dl-server.

Dear youtube archivists, how do you guys archive videos from search results (or particularly a channel)?
If it's something I'll be watching in Plex, I use a docker container running youtube-dl-server+youtube-dl to import it. I have an identical container set up for my SO so she can add her own stuff into her Plex libraries. I'll eventually be swapping out youtube-dl for yt-dlp in these containers.
What are some alternatives?
yt-dlp - A feature-rich command-line audio/video downloader
widevine-l3-decryptor - A Chrome extension that demonstrates bypassing Widevine L3 DRM
youtube-dl-react-viewer - Web app for downloading and viewing videos using youtube-dl, made with the MERN stack.
Removeddit - View deleted stuff from reddit
tubearchivist - Your self hosted YouTube media server
yt-dlc - media downloader and library for various sites.
gpodder-docker - 📦 Dockerized version of gPodder podcatcher.
reveddit - Review removed content on reddit. Uses the Pushshift API, built on code from removeddit.
ytdl-webserver - 📻 Webserver for downloading youtube videos. Ready for docker.
locatarr - My intent is to locate all the *arr apps that are out there in the world, like Sonarr, Radarr, etc. Thus, locatarr
youtube-dl - Command-line program to download videos from YouTube.com and other video sites
