yt-dlp

Terminal window
yt-dlp [args...] URL [URL...]

Wraps yt-dlp, prepending sane defaults: –sponsorblock-remove all, –embed-subs, –embed-metadata, and –embed-thumbnail. Each default is suppressed when you already pass that flag, its alias, or its negation (e.g. –no-embed-thumbnail drops the thumbnail default; –no-sponsorblock or your own –sponsorblock-remove drops ours). All other arguments pass through unchanged, and –help falls through to real yt-dlp. Opinionated component (C1 aliases); when disabled it passes straight through to the system yt-dlp.
