(lemmy.world) submitted 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago) by GatesMcBalmer@lemmy.world to c/selfhosted@lemmy.world 35 comments fedilink hide all child comments I'm looking for a server I can host in my home that has a simple ui where I can put in URLs for download and have them all show up on my Jellyfin. Bonus if there is VPN support. Update: Thanks to everyone for the suggestions! Several projects to check out: youtube-dl, pinchflat, ytptube, metube, tubearchivist, yt-dlp-webui, ytzero, igloo, youtarr

Calling it YouTube-dl is just unnecessarily lazy and confusing. This appears to be mostly a docker image of yt-dlp, which is itself a fork of youtube-dl. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] iamthetot@piefed.ca 1 point 3 days ago I mean, I guess I'm not informed enough to know. I just know that this one has a GUI, and certain automation functions. I got it all set up and now I don't even have to think about it, it just downloads my desired YT vids, which then get scanned by Jellyfin and show up there, which is what OP wanted. 🤷 permalink fedilink source parent
