youtubedl-android VS bromite

For me, the less-complicated client called "DVD" is more reliable for downloading than the client called "Newpipe"; the later stops working intermittently. YMMV.

(Neither are as reliable as using own custom command line programs on desktop, or mobile via Termux. If Google makes a change I can fix/workaround immediately. No waiting for app developers.)

For me, Newpipe works well as a Soundlcoud client.

From the Kotlin source for "dvd":

Video downloader app powered by yt-dlp (formerly youtube-dl).

Features

Download video/audio from 1000+ sites supported by yt-dlp.

Run custom yt-dlp commands.

Update yt-dlp version from settings.

Share link via other apps.

I am trying to import the library youtubedl-android into my custom music app project but no matter what I do it does not work. I previously created a Xamarin app in C# but I am new to Kotlin and Android Studio. I followed the instructions on the github page to add the library to my almost blank jetpack compose project, and Gradle built with no issues but the library never shows up in Kotlin. I tried putting the library declarations in different places, using the dependency manager, and trying a blank XML project but nothing works. It always either says it can't find method implementation or can't resolve or just doesn't show up in Kotlin. Please help me I have tried everything I can think of.

You can download videos or gifs from websites like Youtube, Reddit with a link. Github release page:https://github.com/yausername/youtubedl-android/releases

dvd and seal uses same yt-dlp backend while dvd is no more maintained.

I have never try download video with Boost. You can copy the post link and download via https://redditsave.com/ or install this app to download any video on your device, https://github.com/yausername/youtubedl-android/releases

I think it could better implementing the download feature using this library for Android: https://github.com/yausername/youtubedl-android. It is a wrapper library for a well known CLI program called yt-dlp.

what about this: https://github.com/yausername/youtubedl-android

Our goal with the Chromium provided in CalyxOS has been to provide a browser with a solid base of privacy and security enhancements vs Chromium (and by extension, vs Chrome) while still allowing most sites and WebView-based apps to function as expected out of the box. We do this by using select changes from Cromite (and prior to that, Bromite). Some of these include the under-the-hood deactivation of intrusive features and analytics, while others provide additional site settings to adjust features like WebGL and WebRTC, features which are sometimes necessary but which can aid in fingerprinting or identification when turned on. We also bring in the legacy ad blocker from Bromite/Cromite to offer some reasonable protection from the worst kinds of ads. You can find and adjust these features in Settings.

Normally, I'd recommend Bromite as a lightweight Chromium-based browser with built-in adblocking, but the project appears to be asleep right now. It might be worth checking it in a few weeks, though.

Bromite via either its site/Fdroid, GitHub or Woolyss site has a bottom bar available in accessibility settings. (The first one has been unmaintained for a while, but has auto updates available if they ever drop. The other two are up to date but must be updated manually.)

Bromite hasn't been updated since December: https://github.com/bromite/bromite/releases
