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

          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.

      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

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

      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.

    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.

    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

    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.
