ytdl-patched VS yt-dlp-gui

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.

Once downloaded, the video files can be played anywhere, on any device.

If yt-dlp works, you can also use Celluloid to watch videos from Youtube — choose Open Location and enter the YouTube video or playlist page.

I'd recommend you to have a look at yt-dlp [0] and NewPipe extractor [1]

Couldn't you just use the subtitles from youtube directly?

Or are these worse than whisper?

yt-dlp https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp

yt-dlp or one of its many GUI frontends.

Give yt-dlp a try: https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp

The only ads are the ones the creators insert into the videos themselves.

youtube-dl is broken now and barely updated for some byzantine reasons, no?

yt-dlp is supposed to be the new hotness, though I've yet to try it. https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp/

kannagi0303/yt-dlp-gui: Windows GUI for yt-dlp (github.com)

If command line is too confusing, try yt-dlp-gui

Try yt-dlp-gui https://github.com/kannagi0303/yt-dlp-gui/releases/tag/2023.03.28

Here's the link to Yt-dlp-gui, which has a gui menu/interface rather than just being run through the command line. There are lots of extra bits and bobs that you can get real nitty gritty with if you want. For example, you can put the upload date/description/channel in the file metadata, or tell it to not download the same video twice, or include subtitles in downloaded videos. It's all in the documentation. Of course, fresh out the box it'll still download whatever you want without any tweaking if that's more your style.

There is also a gui version, but I never tried it: https://github.com/kannagi0303/yt-dlp-gui

kinda. if they are all in one playlist it's quite fast. you can try yt-dlp-gui which makes the interface a million times more user friendly. here: https://github.com/Kannagi0303/yt-dlp-gui

Command prompt, or through a gui like https://github.com/kannagi0303/yt-dlp-gui
