Welcome to the News community!
Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.
Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.
5. Only recent news is allowed.
Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.
6. All posts must be news articles.
No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, blogs, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.
7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link. Newswire services such as AP, Reuters, or AFP, are frequently republished and may be shared from other credible sources.
10. Don't copy entire article in your post body
For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.

Backup YouTube now. Be sure to embed chapters, metadata and sub titles.
Sure I’ll just put that on my 10 Exabyte drive. On my 100Gbps connection.
I backed up a few dozen channels on a spare 3TB drive. Planning on making torrents to add to a seedbox later.
What’s the best method for maintaining quality when backing up a YT vid?
yt-dlp usually picks the best flags by default but may need your browser cookies. I usually manually set <=1080p
Does it dependent on connection speed, or does it fully buffer before capturing? I find sometimes there’s some sections that will refuse to improve even if going back and replaying sometimes. Though I also wonder if sponsorblock can cut out sponsor segments from the finished product. Guessing it’s either/or?
I'm working on my music playlist. It's 1200 videos long and yt-DPP only gets Patr of the list. How can I download the full list?
You mean it's skipping some of the entries in the actual playlist, or it's just only getting the first x entries and then stopping?
I haven't personally found a solution to random skipping to that other than allowing yt-dlp to use your account credentials/cookie to act as though it's a signed-in user. YouTube is randomly deciding to block either some or all download attempts from non-signed-in clients, like yt-dlp.
If it's just stopping after x number of videos, I have absolutely no clue.
The first 98/1200 vids, something about api page 1
Aren't there already basically projects for this? Seems like there's a local download leftover on a newpipe server when someone plays a video through it?
I know very little about this, but seems like if was a reason for "why running your own newpipe server could be troublesome"
Nothing unified I'm aware of. I figured the YouTube ID thing would push pirate sites to add sections though.
Are you confusing NewPipe for Piped?
Sounds like something I'd do.
Was thinking "was new pipe the right project to reference in that comment" and I don't think it was.
