AITag Review

yt-dlp is a command-line program that turns a link from thousands of sites into a file on your disk. Born as a fork of youtube-dl, it is now the reference in its field: on YouTube, image and sound come as separate streams, and it picks the best of each up to the size you ask and lets FFmpeg join them into one file. It can also fetch only the minutes you need (--download-sections) and read a channel list or an episode's subtitles without downloading any video. We run it here for our podcast clips, in our video breakdown Lab and in the desktop app's downloader. The license is the Unlicense, which puts the code in the public domain, commercial use included; sites change often, so keep it updated with yt-dlp -U.
