I used to use youtubedl to rip some child friendly media for my kids, preventing them from getting elsa gated.

But that project got gayed and abandoned it seems. What do?

Thanks brahs

>>100191032
It errors with the same youtube dl error, i think i need to be logged into youtube for it to work.
>>
>>100191346
it shouldn't do that, I never have to login in with it unless I'm downloading an age restricted video.
If you do need to login, get an extension like "cookies.txt" and just copy your youtube cookie to a file and yt-dlp has an option for reading cookies from a file.

No, my headless pi runs it fine, it just fakes some user agent afaik. You might have an older version, check whatever repo you are using.
>>
>>100191374
the only other errors I get are when it's out of date, but guessing that's not the issue if you just installed it.

I remeber at one point configuring it to use the aria2 downloader that solved some issues with throttling, but I forget how I did that, looking for my config now lol

>>100191022
Nice try but you are only postponing, you won't always be able to protect them and soon or later they WILL eventually be brainwashed and you will lose them forever! The girl will be impregnated at twelve and not even know if the father is Jamal or Tyron. The boy will tell you to call him they/them and to buy him a dress for the prom.

Best GUI for yt-dlp? One that I can choose the resolution and download entire playlists and channels
>>
>>100191712
cmd

>>100191712
command line

>>100191346
No you don't, it works just fine with yt-dlp <url>

It will default to downloading the best quality

Too hard to memorize and type correctly every single time, have to read the manual every time and find where I wrote something wrong.
>>
>>100191844
Retard issue, not my problem.
>>
>>100191844
Copy that part of the manual into a text file, and save it next to the .exe
What's wrong with you, retard.
>>
>>100191591
A salty troon? Truly deranged projection.

lol, go back to the party underage newfag, oh right, it is down.

>Unable to extract uploader id
That's the error. Running python 3.6 which is apparently dedicated. Had to yum install gcc on this old ass laptop.

>>100191022
>child friendly media
what did you mean by this
>>
>>100191940
I mean leo the truck, non pozzed dave and ava before they noged the mom, back when they had the monkey family.

Cartoons that arent pozzed, and removes the internet requirement to watch them which prevents the algorithm from transitioning my 2 year old.
>>
>>100191844
Checked. You shouldnt read the manual, just cat/help pipe grep keyword.

You do realize you can just create and manipulate a config file, right? I'm a huge retard myself but I use one. For example mine is
-o "E:/Downloads/ydl/%(title)s-%(view_count)s.%(ext)s"  
#--extract-audio
#yt-dlp -f 'bv+ba/b' --add-metadata --embed-thumbnail --remux-video mkv

I comment out whatever I'm not using or add comments for anything I want to save to remind me later.

I use freetube for casual viewing. It has some download options.

I recommend you learn how to use the commands on CLI because it's better.
>>
why you using pip instead of your system package manager?
>>
>>100191032
>install through pip
lmao
>>
>>100193179
>>100193539
at least with youtube-dl the package manager version wouldn't get updated as often, which was a pain, because that was back when youtube was fighting it, when it was eventually kill I just continued to use pip for yt-dlp.

>>100191976
better if you don’t get your kid addicted to fiction
