If I see it getting spammed or abused in some way, I&rsquo;ll probably password protect it, nevertheless, you can check it out <strong><a href="https://dawning.ca/youtube/">here</a></strong>.</p> <h2 id="what-it-does"><a href="https://dawning.ca/youtube/"><figure> <picture> <img loading="lazy" decoding="async" alt="" class="image_figure image_internal image_unprocessed" src="https://dawning.ca/uploads/2009/11/ytGrabber.png" /> </picture> </figure> </a>What it does</h2> <p>This little app takes a YouTube video link and then adds the reference in a database. A seperate script then polls that database and looks for new URLs. It then uses another script (that I did not write), called yt-download, to fetch each video and dump it to my fileserver.</p>
