Help, any Playlist ytb download app?
| Youtube-dl
| Since youtube-dl's future is uncertain at the moment, I'd like to recommend youtube-dlc which is a slightly more active fork of youtube-dl. Of course it might get DMCAd as well, but it's good for now.

Ehm, thank you a lot for answering, but i'm not familiar and don't use pyhton...

1. First you ask for a program (that you dont know because then you wouldnt have to ask) and then you say you're not familiar... bruh
2. It has a standalone exe for windows and can be installed on linux with one single command, so no need to know python to use it
3. The commands and arguments in youtube-dl are pretty frustrating tho, that's its only con, but once you get the commands, it's one of the best programs in the world.
4.You don't have so much alternatives

>i'm not familiar and don't use pyhton
Python knowledge is not necessary at all. After installing youtube-dl with the package manager of your OS just start the terminal emulator of your OS and type
man youtube-dl
or
youtube-dl --help
you may pipe the last one through "less":
youtube-dl --help |less
| Actually, just youtube-dl (video url here' works. For playlists, there is an option I cant bother checking rn ;].
You need to provide url with playlist for that one.
I used youtube-dl and it handled facebook, twitter videos with no issues, saving in mp4.
| >>710814 Nothing is uncertain. Either Micro$oft sees they are doing illegal crap and they cancel the DMCA, either youtube-dl goes on another platform.
| >>711586 not really up to Microsoft, dmca has a provision called "safe harbor" designed to protect online content hosts like github, YouTube, Twitter, et cetera
To stay under that you have to follow any dmca takedown you get more or less and if you fail to you can be held liable for copyright abuse on your platform
That's why YouTube does what they do and everyone gets upset but nothing changes, it's not really up to YouTube
What ytdl team have to do is file a counter notice
| But the thing with a counter notice is the host can on theory choose not to put it back up because it's their right to decide what they host, that's not been tested in court but it's something we've seen before
| >>711704 I don't think they'd get in trouble for not doing something illegal though. If I go and claim that every github repo is mine, I doubt they would shut them all down and wait for owners to complain.
| So how that goes is if they are so sure that it's not a valid claim that they are willing to put their own business on the line they could indeed ignore it, and YouTube has actually done that before
But if they follow though there's no repercussions on the company, the person who files them will have perjured themselves and it's up to the injured party to take them to court, maybe a class action if you did enough of them

no shit they won't litterally shutdown github just because you asked.
but they probably will shutdown a few repos if you do a dmca as dmcas are absolutley abused and frankly need a nerf
| `youtube-dl [playlist]` works fine too, it figures it out. you can change output stuff with it too if you need to.

| So! Here is the thing : i use an mp3, and since i play a lot of video games, i usually search the Playlist on youtube to download it in one download thanks to Free Download Manager
But, i think YouTube changed the algorithm so i can no longer download whole Playlist, only one vid at a time
Any solution an recommendation? Hope you'll have a nice day <3
