Is there a self-hosted downloader that would automatically download liked videos or the ones added to a specific playlist?

Been using this for a few weeks on my synology nas. Absolutely love it!

The sound of "cronjob" made him horny.

They found the way you wrote "Yt-dlp and a cron job" sexually appealing, and went to havd some fun rub... uh, installing.

They read the sentence "Yt-dlp and a cron job" which triggered a hormonal reaction in their brain which they linked to arousal due to prior experience. They used this as an opportunity to retreat to a more private setting and indulge in auto erotic stimulation.

See if ytdl-sub is what you want.

[-] delver@sh.itjust.works 4 points 5 months ago

Seconded ytdl-sub, especially if you want them to work flawlessly with Kodi/Plex/Jellyfin (integrated into the library etc) Other than that, tubesync is nice and has a decent web ui too.

I've been using Pinchflat for a while and so far it's been great for me. It can automatically rescan the channel or playlist on a defined time (like every day or every week), and download new videos. It uses yt-dlp so you can configure all the parameters you want it to use for the download

[-] EddyBot@discuss.tchncs.de 2 points 5 months ago

yea pinchflat has been easy to setup
also adding the videos to Jellyfin was easier than expected

Metube might be right for you.

[-] BrightCandle@lemmy.world 6 points 5 months ago

Metube is great and also has some browser plugins as well so it's as simple as right click and send to metube on a YouTube link. Wish there was one for android too but alas not yet that I have seen.

[-] catloaf@lemm.ee 5 points 5 months ago

I use yt-dlp and a bash script running from cron

[-] S13Ni@lemmy.studio 4 points 5 months ago

Some fork of youtube-dl would probably do. Personally I use JDownloader 2 (open source) to download not just from youtube but from any other sites as well. It runs locally.

[-] Construc_@lemmy.world 3 points 5 months ago

+1 for MeTube. its easy to set up, works out-of-the-box for the unraid docker container (unlike others)

[-] Towerofpain11@lemmy.world 3 points 5 months ago

I'm having success with TubeSync through docker compose.

[-] SiblingNoah@lemmy.world 1 points 5 months ago

That’s what I use with success for about a year now.

[-] Moonrise2473@feddit.it 2 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

I like metube from a manually curated list

Liked videos or added to playlist requires Google login on both the viewer and the downloader and for me that is unacceptable

[-] swooosh@lemmy.world 2 points 5 months ago

Jeeaaasus has a docker image on github

[-] Sarsoar@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 5 months ago

I use pytube and a python script I have been growing and adding features for a while. Lots of examples for you to make something that suits your own needs.

[-] namelivia@lemmy.world 2 points 5 months ago

I use Metube

[-] MattMckenzy@lemmy.ml 2 points 5 months ago

You could try out something I whipped up for this and see if it works for you: https://github.com/MattMckenzy/ToothPick
