YoutubeDL-Material VS ytdl-sub

this the one I use: https://github.com/Tzahi12345/YoutubeDL-Material

There are a few options. So far, I kinda like the way YoutubeDL-Material looks. If you're using an unRaid server, there's even a docker app you can run without configuring anything.

I'm using this one through docker, but it's a little flakey.

I've had a look at youtubedl-material, and it hasn't been updated for a while. is there anything else? Can someone confirm it does everything youtube-dl cli does?

I self-host an instance of YoutubeDL-Material and it works great most of the time. Nice frontend UI for youtube-dl.

I've been using https://github.com/Tzahi12345/YoutubeDL-Material. Seems to work pretty well.

Preps everything for kodi, including metadata, sensible folder structures etc. https://github.com/jmbannon/ytdl-sub

I recently found ytdl-sub which is basically a metadata wrapper around yt-dlp to help you save videos in a format library software like Plex etc supports. Rather than having some horribly named videos with metadata files just taking up space.

Use ytdl-sub for downloading YT channels/playlists/etc: https://github.com/jmbannon/ytdl-sub

I don't mean to take the limelight away from this, was probably a ton of work. I used to have a similar bash setup at one point, then later created this tool to standardize yt-dlp archiving: https://github.com/jmbannon/ytdl-sub

I'm biased because I'm the author, but I think ytdl-sub could shine here: https://github.com/jmbannon/ytdl-sub

I use the ytdl-sub project and it does a great job preserving the metadata and putting it in a format Plex can use without a lot of fuss. Maybe see about integrating with that instead of roll-your-own? A GUI is nice but I just have this set to run on a cron a couple times a day, set and forget.

You should give ytdl-sub a try - nearly 100% compatible with any yt-dlp arg and more: https://github.com/jmbannon/ytdl-sub
