youtube-cue VS Nullboard

> CLI: I wanted to download songs from youtube, but they were often stitched as complete albums - so I wrote a youtube-cue generator that generates cuesheets that can then be used to split and tag the yt-dlp downloaded audio file. (https://github.com/captn3m0/youtube-cue)

Thanks for this! I need to do some testing, this might automate the last manual step of my own script for converting YT mixes into distinct tracks. The problem I faced is that often the timestamps are not in the description, but instead in a comment, sometimes not even the pinned/top voted comment. That is why I paste it in via stdin for now.

As this fits the thread topic, a short description of this script. I enjoy YT mixes and wanted to listen to them in my car. I can use an USB stick with media files and playlists which are displayed decently by the infotainment system. I wrote a script that takes in a YT URL (or anything supported by yt-dlp), downloads & converts it to mp3, splits the mp3 file based on a list of timestamps, recognizes (tries to anyway) the songs via SongRec [0], tags & names the files correctly and finally generates an M3U playlist in the format recognized by my car. I use song recognition instead of parsing out the names from the timestamped list as the format of Artist - Title is nearly always slightly different. It was easier to use SongRec instead and get everything I need for tagging with >90% hit rate.

The heavy lifting is done by calling out to yt-dlp, ffmpeg and SongRec. I just glued them together with Python. I like your approach of a do one thing well and might add youtube-cue to the toolset.

Beets is amazing and comes with great defaults. I wrote code recently to generate CUE sheets from YouTube mixes[0] and beet imports it nicely and easily.

Hello, HN! I'd like to introduce you to nbagent[0], an open-source alternative backup agent for Nullboard[1] for Unix systems. If you, like me, are a fan of Nullboard's simplicity and you've been looking for an easy way to have your data backed up, check it out.

I'd love to hear your feedback on nbagent. Please feel free to leave comments, suggestions, or questions below.

Surprisingly no one has mentioned nullboard (https://nullboard.io/preview) yet. Just a single file JSON to carry around the entire board.

Nullboard maybe?

minimalist kanban board, without fancy tagging/time tracking/... features. Every game has a column, and notes are player names. nullboard would be perfect if it wasn't local only;

Nullboard - cool simple project, no bug tracking

Nullboard - Kanban board with dark mode, localStorage, and thoughtful UI

I use and like https://nullboard.io/preview nullboard which runs in the browser. Because it uses local data, you need to save it or the data is lost when you close the browser window.
