I was planning on using either the one by kannagi0303 from github or stacher.
update: I have setup the one from github, seems to do the job. Still can’t figure out downloading subtitles using gui and using the yt-dlp terminal version for that. Link for what I am using: https://github.com/kannagi0303/yt-dlp-gui
I just have mine set up as an alias in zsh (I assume this would work in bash too):
alias yt='yt-dlp -f "bestvideo[ext=mp4]+bestaudio[ext=m4a]/mp4"'Then just
yt [url of video]from the command line should automatically grab the best quality video as an .mp4. And of course that can be tweaked to whatever you like (adding subs etc.)Don’t forget to block sponsors and get subtitles
alias ytdl=‘yt-dlp -f mp4 “bestvideo*+bestaudio” --sponsorblock-remove all --write-auto-sub’
On Android I just use Libretube. Has Sponsorblock and you can can grab a csv of all your subs you had from your previous client.
Lastly, I use newsboat and YouTube RSS feeds to subscribe these days. Redirection extension takes me to an invidious instance. Noscript blocks everything. Just need the url for yt-dlp.
Huh, I didn’t know it could do sponsorblock as well, neat!
