Guess I'll have to find a way to get my script to automate that somehow. My goal is to get it back to where the only thing I have to do to download a video is paste the url in a lan webpage on my local server.
You can specify multiple formats and it will download the first one that's available.
I don't remember the format codes but they are generally pretty stable across a given host like youtube. The trouble is that not every video has all of the formats. You might have to just find the nearest one and convert with ffmpeg.
Check the most upvoted answer and then look into tubearchivist which can take your yt-dpl parameters and URLs to download the videos plus process them to have a better index of them.
