Media Downloader

Download media with yt-dlp, with sane options, to expected locations.

Recommended Extra Setup:

Usage

Just run this python uv script:

```

uv run --script ${baseDir}/dl.py $url

```

Which will auto detect Video/Music and Single/Playlist info from the url, and save to corresponding locations.

Or, you can still use following shell cmds:

Download Single Video, save into ~/Movies as mp4:

```

uvx yt-dlp@latest --js-runtime node --remote-components ejs:github \

-f "bestvideo[vcodec^=avc1]+bestaudio/best" --merge-output-format=mp4 --max-filesize=2000M \

-P "$HOME/Movies" \

-o "%(title).240B.%(ext)s" --no-playlist \

${url}

```

Download Video Playlist, save into ~/Movies/<playlist>/ as mp4:

```

uvx yt-dlp@latest --js-runtime node --remote-components ejs:github \

-f "bestvideo[vcodec^=avc1]+bestaudio/best" --merge-output-format=mp4 --max-filesize=2000M \

-P "$HOME/Movies" \

-o "%(playlist_title)s/%(title).240B.%(ext)s" --max-downloads=30 \

${url}

```

Download Single Music, save into ~/Music as m4a:

```

uvx yt-dlp@latest --js-runtime node --remote-components ejs:github \

-f "bestaudio/best" --extract-audio --audio-format=m4a --audio-quality=0 --max-filesize=30M \

-P "$HOME/Music" \

-o "%(title).240B.%(ext)s" --no-playlist \

${url}

```

Download Music Playlist, save into ~/Music/<playlist>/ as m4a:

```

uvx yt-dlp@latest --js-runtime node --remote-components ejs:github \

-f "bestaudio/best" --extract-audio --audio-format=m4a --audio-quality=0 --max-filesize=30M \

-P "$HOME/Music" \

-o "%(playlist_title)s/%(title).240B.%(ext)s" --max-downloads=30 \

${url}

```

Tips:

Adjust the cmds when needed.
