s3cmd VS youtube-dl

did you try this? https://github.com/s3tools/s3cmd/issues/1356

You could also use s3cmd via a drush or bash script to sync what you need

In order to configure this thing you can use a tool named s3cmd. It's available from brew.sh.

I have a cronjob that runs hourly which creates a tarball and then uses s3cmd to push files to Amazon S3. It also removes local backups that are older than 3 hours old, and retention policy removes S3 backups older than 7 days old.

I see. According to the Web Archive, this website stopped working all the way in November 2023, and http://ytdl-org.github.io/youtube-dl/ now contains all the same content as the old one and is the new "official" website.

youtube-dl is still a thing, last commit was one week ago.

YouTube with youtube-dl [1] or NewPipe [2].

See elsewhere in the thread for details, but youtube-dl was restored by Github and is generally not considered to be in violation of the DMCA. You can see it on Github here: https://github.com/ytdl-org/youtube-dl

A copyright holder abused the DMCA process to take it down the first time.

The best way is to download the source from github, run `make`, and copy the the file to $HOME/bin . There hasn't been a release for about a year now and the files on the distro repos are even older (I think).

Also YouTube has been doing some changes lately on the the player and a lot of the tools fail to download audio or video.

For example, in the last couple of weeks there have been some issues with a redirect to a 'consent page' : https://github.com/ytdl-org/youtube-dl/issues/32499
