  • YoutubeDL-Material

    Self-hosted YouTube downloader built on Material Design

  • Try this. https://github.com/Tzahi12345/YoutubeDL-Material

  • ytdl-sub

    Lightweight tool to automate downloading and metadata generation with yt-dlp

  • You can check out ytdl-sub. It's written specifically for formatting youtube videos to show in Jellyfin/Plex/Kodi/etc with artwork as TV shows, movies, or whatever you want.

  • TubeSync-NFO-Agent.bundle

    A plex metadata agent for TubeSync's NFO Files

  • Another Plex plugin that worked best for me is TubeSync-NFO-Agent. Despite its name, it works with YoutubeDL-Material as well.

  • Youtube-DL-Agent.bundle

    A plex metadata agent for Youtube-DL downloads

  • Highly recommend this fork - https://github.com/JordyAlkema/Youtube-DL-Agent.bundle/ - you can invoke youtube-dl with --write-info-json and --write-thumbnail and not lose your metadata if the video is removed from Youtube :)
