Do you have a fool-proof method?

  • I have Internet Download Manager and it has browser integration. But the programmer can be very annoying. It stopped working 100% of the time. And I guess he’s not going to fix it. And I bet he won’t even make the link available so I can grab it with another app.

  • I also use yt5s.com. It used to be golden but starting yesterday it’s gives me 403 error sometimes.

  • At deturl.com - I tried all the download links to other sites but it seems the site was abandoned. The links are dead and the sites that work - also generated 403 yesterday. I’m about to try right now but I expect 403s again.

    I use metube, which is a web based front end for yt-dpl/youtube-dl. It’s useful if you run a Plex server or a host-your-own-music server(like subsonic). I can log in to the front end, paste in a video/playlist link, and it downloads it into a folder that Plex can pick up.

    It’s probably overkill unless you self-host a media server, though.
