I like this idea! It helps get people some traction out there without them needing to put effort into fumbling around how to do it. Kind of like a push start. I’m going to start doing this!

You got it. Good luck!

So there's 2 files that go along with the main script: a config file and a download list.

The download list file is literally a list of YT channel URLs and any time I want it to get new channels, I add to the list. Conversely if I get tired of watching a channel, I comment it out or just delete it. YT-DLP just traverses the list.

The config is where the magic happens. That dictates how the file is named, quality you download at, location it's saved to, format, etc. You can incorporate SponsorBlock which is awesome and even DeArrow has an integration. I enjoy the logging feature so it doesn't re-download vids it's already snagged. Generally I'll tell it to get every video from a channel that's been posted in the last 15 days.

My destination for the files is a YouTube library folder I set up in Plex. Plex sees it just as another TV-like library and it pulls the metadata from the files, which are embedded by YT-DLP.

Hope this helps!

I use YT-DLP to scrip the download of vids I want to watch and it drops them into Plex for me. I set it to run every 4 hours.

  1. I think it can, you just need to give it the machine's name or local IP and the port.
  2. Nope!
  3. Caddy handles all certs from LE and renews them for you too. Nothing you need to do on your own.

Is there a way to hook the custom Listenbrainz playlists into Lidarr so I could have a new mix / recommended playlist each week?

Yes this is possible. I have a few hosted items with subdomains and I have it set up as follows:

All subdomains point to the same IP. Router port forwards all 80/8080 traffic to server. I use Caddy in Docker to forward the requests based on the subdomain to the appropriate docker container hosting the actual service.

This makes spinning up something new simple. You get a docker container of New Thing going, edit the CaddyFile to point to it too, set up new subdomain in cloudflare. No new open ports needed.

Hope this helps!

DekuDeals is where you'll want to do that. Lets you get alerts about price drops too from places other than the eShop.

Will be interesting to see how this goes in a year or two.

Personally I've loved Pixelmator and have an old non-subscription copy I still use from time to time. If they're still offering single-purchase versions, my recommendation is to get that. It's an amazing Photoshop replacement.

YW! I'm actually giving an app called Ice a try, which looks really promising. Here's a link in case you're curious: https://github.com/jordanbaird/Ice
