Comment on Is there a music thing that handles single tracks

yt-dlp can handle YouTube Music Links. Just tell it with -x --audio-format mp3, that you don’t want the Video, but an mp3 (opus can’t be tagged). I use it to obtail whole artists, then I tag them with MusicBrainz Picard. I’m sure there is a way to automate this. yt-dlp has also a Python library. However I haven’t used it for now.

opus can’t be tagged

I’m pretty sure that it supports tagging.

goes to try it out

$ yt-dlp -x https://www.youtube.com/shorts/syF8M3aeiWs >/dev/null $ opustags beep\ sound\ effect\ \[syF8M3aeiWs\].opus |grep -v ^METADATA language=eng encoder=Lavf61.7.100 title=beep sound effect date=20230316 purl=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=syF8M3aeiWs synopsis=beep DESCRIPTION=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=syF8M3aeiWs artist=Seth's old channel $

If you mean that this MusicBrainz Picard thing doesn’t support tagging Opus, it sounds like it does:

community.metabrainz.org/t/…/467209

I have been having trouble tagging .opus files. Every time I try to edit .opus files I get:

(error: read b’\x1aE\xdf\xa3’, expected b’OggS’, at 0x0)

Looks like this is not a valid Ogg Opus file. Opus is just an audio codec, not a file format. Files with the file extension .opus are supposed to be inside an Ogg container, and that’s what Picard supports.

And looking at the output of yt-dlp -x, it looks like it’s Opus in an Ogg container:

$ file beep\ sound\ effect\ \[syF8M3aeiWs\].opus beep sound effect [syF8M3aeiWs].opus: Ogg data, Opus audio, version 0.1, stereo, 48000 Hz (Input Sample Rate) $

  Awesome! I just learned something today. Thanks for pointing it out so detailed!

An absolutely ancient tool I used to use was WinAmp (v2.x) with the Streamripper plugin. It would save out each song from a shoutcast or icecast station to a file with the artist/album/title/track like a champ. Maybe not quite what you want (won’t do youtube) but there are a ton of great indie stations on the vorbis icecast network…

  That’s a cool approach! Reminds me of the old Napster 🤓

    Search for v2.79 (if memory serves) on oldversion.com for the last ‘good’ version of classic winamp, and the streamripper plugin is still floating around somewhere on the 'net…
