I've been so sick n tired of the youtube downloader websites. Half of them don't work. Some say they'll download an mp3 but give you a .webm. AND ALL OF THEM ARE FILLED WITH ADS.
tldr: ITS MEGA FRUSTRATING.
i was looking for an easy solution when I realised I could make something of my own. (yes maybe it's time to use the 2 braincells I developed during my engineering)
So finally I made a very simple script which grabs the url of the video currently playing on youtube in the current tab, sends it to a server which knows about my current working directory in DaVinci Resolve, downloads that video/ audio there.
.
IT SAVES ME SOOOO MUCH TIME NOW. Y'all should build systems for your workflow too. It simplifies stuff so much!
.
Also, please do not download the copyrighted content on YouTube. It's unethical and we shouldn't support it. This was just a fun video idea I had. Hope y'all enjoyed :)
