looks cool I have been wanting something like this for a while
They have a whole list of these in the linked Readme. Thanks for posting - I was considering setting up pinchflat but this might be a lot lighter on resources.
My use case: I would like to run something like this, but either directly on, or syncing to my laptop. I don’t watch much YouTube, but it would be nice to have stuff to watch offline, and cut google out of all the behavioural metadata.
Take a look at ytdl-sub if you want light weight. I load the resulting videos into jellyfin as series.
It’s based on yt-dlp, which I can’t seem to get working reliably with my VPN, even with manual intervention like using cookies from a browser, switching servers, etc. Guess VPN IPs hit the rate limits pretty regularly, though I don’t want to risk my real IP getting banned. I’ve seen some people suggest using a VPS, but sounds like a lot of effort.
Sonarr is based on RSS feeds - explicitly designed for this purpose of getting new updates from subscription-like sources. This is much lighter in processing requirements. I’ve also tried to make this UI as similar as possible to the other *arr apps for familiarity.
Index an entire channel/playlist or get "older" videos. Subarr's RSS approach is specifically for "subscriptions": new video is posted, take some action Media management. Once Subarr kicks off the post-processor (like yt-dlp), its job is done. Use Plex/Jellyfin/etc or another one of the linked solutions above if you require more control over your media
ytdl-sub already existed for a while
this naming trend needs to die
Why? It’s a brand at this point and lets you know exactly what its about.
There’s more *arr tools that aren’t aggregator automation tools than there are aggregator automation tools.
Also It was only funny when using an existing words like "sonar, “radar”, “lidar”. Jellyseerr is dumb, even Jackett was pushing it.
I guess it makes it somewhat easier to associate them as part of a group of software, but now we have stuff like Homarr that is entirely unrelated, but still a useful tool.
I mean it is clear that it’s an aggregator (? Not sure what the right term is for this) but I can’t even begin to count the number of times I access Radarr instead of Sonarr because I forgot which one is for shows or movies.
What is a brand? “Sonarr”? Never heard that.
I leverage pinchflat for this
Just set this up a few days ago and so far am very happy. Ended up choosing it over other options since I wanted something that saves the downloads in a humanly accessible way by simply putting them into channel folders with the video names as title.
Sadly no actual search function that pipes it into yt-dlp.
Imagine the releases were done as yearly seasons and their individual videos.
I’ve been using Metube but it’s pretty basic. Might give this a shot.

Whats you personal experience of pinchflat vs tubearchivist?

Not exactly ideal archival software…
It doesn’t store files in a human readable way and requires a separate DB and application to interpret your stored data. Without controls over how it stores that data.
