I'm backing up my Youtube favorites locally since 2018, so far 10k videos. I might try to use this because seems like would be a fun way to play them in the background on a second monitor.

I've been thinking about doing this. What's your setup?

I run a flask app with an endpoint that takes a video URL and runs yt-dlp. I have a bookmarklet that submits the URL of the current video page I'm on to the web service.

Also when I'm in NewPipe on the phone I can go to a video and share the URL to an app that forwards it to the web service.
