… so you use command line?
- TheRealNGenius 5y agothat makes sense assuming they just YouTube-dl the videos they want to watch... Certainly not my preferred method but you do you.
- 1vuio0pswjnm7 5y agoYes, I search from command line, get JSON returned. Extract info I need from JSON, titles, descriptions, URLs, etc., and then download videos from command line, using tiny shell scripts. (I do not use youtube-dl because I rarely ever need to download videos that use a dynamically-generated sig value.) Additionally, I have scripts to download lists of all videos from any given YouTube channel. No browser or Javascript needed.
