Tartube is a free, open-source GUI front-end for youtube-dl, yt-dlp and other compatible video downloaders, written in Python 3 / Gtk 3. It lets users download, organise, and archive videos from YouTube, Twitch, Odysee and hundreds of other sites across Windows, Linux, BSD and macOS.
Use cases
- download videos from youtube channels
- archive videos before they get removed
- organise downloaded videos into folders
- download only the audio from a video
- get alerts when livestreams start
- bulk download videos from twitch or odysee
- gui for yt-dlp
When to choose
- you want a graphical interface instead of command-line youtube-dl/yt-dlp
- you need to manage and archive many channels' videos over time
- you want cross-platform desktop support (Windows, Linux, macOS, BSD)
- you want audio-only extraction or duplicate handling across sites
When to avoid
- you need a headless or scripted download solution without a GUI
- you only need a one-off video download and prefer a lightweight CLI
- you need a web-based or mobile downloader
