I need something and hopefully i dont have to invent the wheel.
I want to subscribe to youtube channels and have new videos automatically detected and downloaded to local storage. Bonus points for jellyfin intergration but i can live without.
I know not too hard to rig something like this uo with youtube-dl but if there is an existing solution that would be amazing.
Anybody know?
How would one connect this to jellyfin while preserving thumbnails etc?
Pinchflat allows to download and/or embed thumbnails and subtitles, as well as creates nfo files. I am using it together with Jellyfin and it works totally fine
It has options for providing metadata, thumbnails, etc for jellyfin automatically, by pulling the metadata from the youtube page.
Very cool!
Works great to convert certain channels to podcasts as well.
TubeArchivist works well for me. It also has a metadata plugin for Jellyfin
You’re looking for TubeArchivist
Definitly look at pinchflat. Does exactly this. :) Easy to set up, and it runs so smoothly !
ytdl-sub is by far the lightest weight of all of them.
I’ve been using Tubesync but the pinch one linked looks much cooler and easier
Yeah I switched from tubesync to pinchflat and haven’t looked back. Much more friendly UI.
