  Take a look at: https://github.com/alexta69/metube or https://github.com/Tzahi12345/YoutubeDL-Material both are very light and do most of what you are trying to do. Don't seem to have the external metadata part though.

• Best means to setup pulling from YouTube?

  Just a heads up, this is potentially abandoned. Last release was almost a year ago: https://github.com/Tzahi12345/YoutubeDL-Material

  i use youtubedl-material, https://github.com/Tzahi12345/YoutubeDL-Material, hosted in docker (for easy integration with traefik). It's really simple but has been a fine solution for my use case

• Getting up to date news the RSS way...

  I use FreshRSS a ton as well but based on your “The Ask” section, why not use a tool meant for downloading your YT subscriptions and placing the videos into folders for Plex to scan over. I do this with https://github.com/Tzahi12345/YoutubeDL-Material and had pretty good success with viewing in Plex using their folder view which effectively sorts the channels or playlists since that is how YoutubeDL-Material saves them.

  Here's just one of the visions that definitely set it apart from just being a downloader (although the mentioned ticket could also be very helpful in a scraper-only setting I admit) https://github.com/Tzahi12345/YoutubeDL-Material/issues/428

  However, I just want to make sure you're not reinventing the wheel here unnecessarily; there's Youtube-DL-Material as well which I've used in a Docker container for a while... and while that project's also imperfect it's still pretty actively in development and improves often enough that I am happy with it.

• MeTube - Web GUI for youtube-dl

  If people require multi-user and/or subscription-support - I've been using https://github.com/Tzahi12345/YoutubeDL-Material for that.

• Batch download of txt URL list
  2 projects | reddit.com/r/youtubedl | 9 Sep 2021

  So I have a Synology NAS running docker I would like to use for batch video DL from a url list from either txt or csv file I generate from Link Klipper. I installed YoutubeDL-Material but it seems limited to single URL download. Is there a docker WebUI that allows either upload of a txt file or pointing to a local path or URL pointing to a txt file?

• Is there no decent solution for local YouTube backup playback for us simpletons?
  1 project | reddit.com/r/selfhosted | 27 Aug 2021

  Are you a YouTube content creator wanting to backup your own content, or are you trying to backup other YouTube content locally? What is the source of said videos, local or youtube.com? If the latter, YoutubeDL-Material is a download manager with a nice UI that pulls metadata from YouTube along with the videos. It organises the downloads in a grid with thumbnails on the download page. It doesn't organise them by channel, but there's an option to create custom playlists.
