Archived YouTube Video Finder
I recently found ytdl-sub which is basically a metadata wrapper around yt-dlp to help you save videos in a format library software like Plex etc supports. Rather than having some horribly named videos with metadata files just taking up space.

[Release] My collection of yt-dlp archival scripts with sensible defaults. The configuration files offer explanations as to why certain options are used and also let you easily comment/uncomment lines as desired to suit your setup and preferences.
I don't mean to take the limelight away from this, was probably a ton of work. I used to have a similar bash setup at one point, then later created this tool to standardize yt-dlp archiving: https://github.com/jmbannon/ytdl-sub

We need a community archiving effort for YouTube channels. What's most crucial to protect and how do we get organised?
I'm biased because I'm the author, but I think ytdl-sub could shine here: https://github.com/jmbannon/ytdl-sub

GUI automatic youtube downloader for Plex.
I use the ytdl-sub project and it does a great job preserving the metadata and putting it in a format Plex can use without a lot of fuss. Maybe see about integrating with that instead of roll-your-own? A GUI is nice but I just have this set to run on a cron a couple times a day, set and forget.

format for ffmpeg arguments to pass on to other program
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

Can't find the FFmpeg options window in 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.
