Here's a little yad program that uses yt-dlp, ffmpeg, and ffprobe as backends. Paste in the Youtube playlist (or single video) that you'd like to download and select output directory, resolution, video and audio codecs. Tick the checkboxes if you want to trim silence from the start and end of videos and/or merge all videos in playlist to one video.

Feature request - audio only downloads?

@Jasper, I should be able to implement that. I'll probably work on it tomorrow.

If you are tweaking.

I suggest you have it start with output directory already set to /mnt/home

That is a good location to download and not have the stuff in the save file/folder

/mnt/home will be the partition the Puppy OS is installed on or the partition where the save is located.

Just placed on the partition and not inside any directory.

For me it starts with root selected and that would be a location in the save.

0.2 is up. Audio only download checkbox added and if you've never run the program and if /mnt/home exists that will be the default save directory.

Not seeing the /mnt/home change in version 0.2

Yes It has /mnt/home in the operating file system.

This is what I see:

@plinej

Happy Easter!!

Thank you, works perfectly for me

@bigpup, you're right...

0.3 is up. Try that @bigpup. You will have to delete ~/.yplaylist if you've run the program to see /mnt/home as the default save to...

Tried version 0.3

You got it!

Now starts set to download to /mnt/home

Nice little program!

I like it!

Note:
I am using it in BookwormPup64 10.0.6

updated to 0.4 bugfix
