Seems like a fairly mature and well maintained project. Can be fired up in DevContainer for hacking.
Does it support sponsor block? Like cut out the sponsor sections from the downloaded videos?
yup
Does it support logging in to YouTube to have access to purchased content, premium content, subscribers-only content, etc?
Since it uses yt-dlp which supports cookies, I would guess it does or it will soon. Not sure about how yt handles “purchased” content, but the cookies work for age restricted videos at least.
I have been looking for something just like this, thanks
Damn I’ve been looking for something just like this, but my setup doesn’t use docker.
I’ve had all my servers running on my personal Windows machine, and I’ve been planning to move them to a dedicated Linux machine, as well as move to Linux on my PC. Part of that involved containerizing my whole setup to make the move easier. There’s a script listed in Jellyfin docs that helps you migrate your setup. Itzs a bit involved if you’re coming from Windows but very doable. Very easy if you’re already on Linux though.
My media setup is on a Linux VPS configured with Swizzin community edition. I tried a bunch of docker-based projects over the years but could never quite get my head around it. A good friend of mine just redid his whole setup with docker tho, so maybe if/when mine breaks I’ll give it another shot.
I definitely struggled to wrap my head around it at first, but I got used to using it when I got into DevOps, and once you understand it, it becomes so easy and helpful that it’s easy to overuse it. I can certainly answer any questions to the best of my ability if you do look into it!
Only thing I’m missing is the ability to only download a subset of videos from a channel. There is a workaround by making a playlist but I believe that requires a Google account.
TubeSync has a regex filter for this
Yah, I think that’s what the author suggests as well. Unfortunate, maybe make a feature request or a PR.
Only other alternative I can see is a custom script that it supports with some gnarly allow list
