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

Easily Archive YouTube Channels and Videos - Classic YouTube videos in Danger after new rule changes. We need to start archiving our favorite content.
Some options suggested by the following, that may not have been in the old version of the program/manual page I have installed: * https://write.corbpie.com/downloading-a-youtube-channel-with-yt-dlp/ * https://github.com/dmn001/youtube_channel_archiver * https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp/issues/3958 The following might embed the comments into the video file instead of separately --no-write-info-json --embed-info-json --write-comments

Is there a way using yt-dlp to only download the videos (from a channel) you havent already downloaded?

Download speed is throttling
I started using YouTube DL to download a whole channel this morning. At first, everything was going well, I was downloading at a 10mb/s speed, which is better than I was getting using other software, so that was a win for me. But after a while I noticed that the speed gradually went down from 10mb/s to 50KiB/s, and now even when I restart the command it stays at 50KiB/s. I am using this GitHub repo to download the channels, I don't know much about YouTube dl, so maybe the problem is in that config and I couldn't figure it out. Anyway, any help is appreciated. Thanks

I made a public SemperVideo Video Archive
There's an archiver script that skips existing files iirc, maybe try it locally. https://github.com/dmn001/youtube_channel_archiver. If I'd use it the problem is that I'd have to repack the whole complete archive Everytime a new video uploads. I think I will update the Archive regularly, but I'd implement them as a sort of additional archive that includes like X Months and only update the full archive rarely. We'll see.

Format code for browser playback compatibility
I am trying to play some videos downloaded with yt-dlp on my local web server. However, because of the codecs my current format code chooses when downloading I have noticed a number of videos will not play within in a web browser. My current format code is based on TheFrenchGhosty's youtube-dl script collection which chooses codecs for quality at the cost of compatibility.

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

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.
- I am genuinely terrified of the Internet Archive closing down.

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