youtube-dl-wpf VS tartube

4.

youtube-dl-wpf is what I use, works well for CLI maggots like me -- doesn't feel like building a .bat script but also want the freedom to alter the actual argments that's passed to yt-dlp.

Once I posted a super long reply to a super long and messy feature request: https://github.com/database64128/youtube-dl-wpf/issues/131. It's basically like this:

> First of all, thank you for your support...$blah_blah_blah

> Unfortunately, I have to say no to some of your requests. $project is just a small side project of mine. My approach to its development will always be to prioritize my own use cases, while also catering to the community as much as I can. As you may have noticed, I have already implemented a bunch of new features and made quite a few changes based on community feedback. Decisions on whether to adopt a proposal from the community are made by evaluating the usefulness of the proposed feature or change for me and the wider community, and the feasibility of implementing it in my limited spare time.

> Now that I have explained my ways of doing side projects to you, let's go through your proposals:

heres a gui that i use. you just have to point to ffmpeg and yt-dlp executable in the settings and its all set up https://github.com/database64128/youtube-dl-wpf

A small project of mine: https://github.com/database64128/youtube-dl-wpf

It uses WPF so it can only run on Windows though.

you can try using yt-dlp along with a GUI of some sort, like Cube YouTube Downloader.

im using a program Tartube to download audio from youtube. My objective is to download the audio in required format and speed up the audio 1.5x using ffmpeg integrated into the program. what i have been doing till now is downloading the audio and speeding up separately using ffmpeg ffmpeg -i input.mp3 -af atempo=1.5 output.mp3 but the program can do this automatically for me. Where i am lacking is finding the correct arguments to fed into the program that will fetch the desired result. for eg i have tried ffmpeg -af atempo=1.5 etc but they are all inappropriate argument format for it. Can you help me by guiding what the correct format should be? here is the github question which hasnt been answered yet :link Thanks

Linux also offers complete suites for interacting with YT, like tartube.

Does anyone know where to find the FFmpeg options window in Tartube? I'm new to the program and can't seem to find it anywhere. I know that the window exists because of this old thread in the github https://github.com/axcore/tartube/issues/264. I'm trying to enable GPU encoding for post-processing with FFmpeg so that Tartube doesn't push my CPU usage to 100% every time I download a file.

In case you would like those crashes to get fixed, here's the bug report form for Tartube https://github.com/axcore/tartube/issues.

Just use yt-dlp, or if you prefer a GUI, Tartube (which is basically just a GUI for yt-dlp)
