I’ve been using Stacher for a while to backup entire Youtube channels I semi regularly go back to watch their older stuff.

Problem is it’s missing a few feature that would make my life a lot easier, Being able to filter videos from a playlist by upload date or length of video are the big ones.

A lot of channels still upload but their content really went downhill after a certain point, and some have long podcasts or livestreams on their main channel I don’t care to watch or save. Right now I’m having to manually filter through playlists of sometimes 100s of videos. Anyone know an easier way?

    yt-dlp. I’ve been using it for a couple of years and I’ve never had a problem. I’ve used it to go through and download videos from my very large playlists. Also the devs are awesome and were very quick to help me with bugs/issues.

    It does use the terminal though. I think there’s a GUI someone made for it?
