• Show HN: Script downloads any YouTube videos, high quality, without ads

  Not sure what the point of this is, it just seems to be a thin wrapper around yt-dlp (https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp). - Source: Hacker News / 4 months ago

• A Python script that *DOWNLOADS* any VIDEOS in seconds (and *FULL PLAYLISTS*)

  My first question was going to be how is this better than yt_dlp https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp and then I looked at this source: from yt_dlp import YoutubeDL. - Source: Hacker News / 4 months ago

• VideoWise – Make Video Content Searchable and Interactive with AI

  Great work. Based on your TODO "Add functionality to upload videos directly from YouTube URLs." I recommend leveraging https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp to support any video source their extractors support. Also consider S3 compatible targets (not just AWS S3, but also Backblaze B2, Minio, etc). - Source: Hacker News / 5 months ago

  Yt-dlp https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp lets you list and download different formats offered by YoTube for videos. You could try downloading different audio formats and see if any of the available ones contains non-garbled audio. For example:

    yt-dlp -F "https://youtube.com/watch?v=a28_aXgrgXE".

• Show HN: Voice-Pro – AI Voice Cloning Magic: Transform Any Voice in 15 Seconds

  As I made the comment, I can't really imagine anything that's not so absurd that has a more than zero chance of happening. Seriously, what can anybody do about random hacker Joe publishing under the name XoX? Even if they burn GitHub and friends to the ground, if something is useful it will be really really hard to get rid of it. Remember youtube-dl? It's now - Source: Hacker News / 6 months ago

• Nier automata anime soundtrack album

  YouTube-DLG (https://mrs0m30n3.github.io/youtube-dl-gui/) is by far my fave method after all this time. It's an open source desktop app so no need to deal w Bs ads or potential malware or any sort of other nonsense. Source: about 2 years ago

• How to prevent sites from disabling context menu items?

  It seems that you have found a site that uses Media Source Extensions to stream videos. Firefox is receiving the video in small pieces, making it impossible to download the entire video all at once using the context menu. Give youtube-dl-gui a try. It can download full videos from many sites, including Youtube. Source: about 2 years ago

• .mp3s downloading as .webms

  Hello, I have been using youtubedl for 3 years now. First, I used it via py, then I downloaded the command exe, but it stopped working, after which I switched to youtube-dl-gui, which it worked fine up until a month ago. Now I'm on yt-dlg, and it works but in a weird way. .mp4s are downloaded fine, but when I try to download an .mp3, it's usually done in a matter of seconds and the status at the end always says...

• Download YT playlists all at once without manual work?

  Https://mrs0m30n3.github.io/youtube-dl-gui/ Is what I've been using for the past year now. Source: over 2 years ago

• Newbie, sorry if questions are obvious, not that tech savvy! 1. Recommended jdownloader2 to rip BBC sounds - copied link & faced with hundreds of lines, how do I identify which is music file? 2. Fed up with vinyl only albums not having digital d/l, can anyone recommend to use site to find digi copy?

  For downloading from BBC Sounds - Youtube-DLG is what you want - https://mrs0m30n3.github.io/youtube-dl-gui/. Just paste the link in and it will download it. You can also use get_iplayer if you want to dabble in the command line stuff. Source: over 2 years ago
