Pinchflat is a self-hosted web application for downloading and archiving YouTube content, built on top of yt-dlp. Users define rules for channels and playlists, and it periodically checks for and downloads new media, formatted for use with media center apps like Plex, Jellyfin, and Kodi.
Use cases
- automatically download new videos from youtube channels
- archive youtube playlists for offline viewing
- download youtube videos for plex or jellyfin
- self-hosted youtube media manager
- keep a local mirror of favorite youtube channels
- schedule periodic youtube channel downloads
When to choose
- you want automated, rule-based downloading of youtube channels or playlists
- you want files organized for plex, jellyfin, or kodi
- you prefer a lightweight self-hosted docker app with a web ui
When to avoid
- you need a full-featured gui downloader for many other sites beyond youtube
- you only need occasional one-off video downloads without setup
- you cannot run docker or a self-hosted server
