Feels good to be a premium chad

Not everything needs archived in max video quality.
480p is good enough for saving karaoke streams.

>>51438039
He is talking about downloading the enhanced bitrate version for archival reasons.
Maybe if you have premium and you add "--cookies-from-browser" it should let you see and download the one with enhanced bitrate.

>>51437918
It's not available for streams yet so don't worry about it.

>>51437918
archiving youtube videos is illegal and theft.

boomp
wonder if hoomans are onto this

>>51438629
ok boomer

>>51438210
>he doesn't archive everything related to his oshi in the highest quality
NGMI

>>51438629
You dropped this.

>>51440607
As said before, load cookies and that's about it, works about the same as member streams. you might need to manually select the stream though

>>51438629
If you don't need to sign up to access something, then (unlike taxation) it isn't theft.

>>51441474
>he doesn't plan to troll others and also himself by purposefully downloading streams in the lowest quality possible then wallowing in self-pity 10 years later when all current chuubas have been forgotten

>>51438629
Then youtube have to shut itself down first because they offer download function in their premium RETARD

>>51437918
144p is good enough for me

>>51438210
audio stream doesn't get better after a certain res.

>>51438629
YouTube is evil. The more that is taken away from them the better.

>>51438629
if you can just define anything as theft, I define youtube as theft
get Robin Hooded

>>51448350
Not wrong but also not quite right. While there are pre-packed options that youtube does provide those are not always 'the best'.
If you don't at all care for the video, getting the audio only is always an option.

>>51448350
That's why you manually scrape and mix low-res video with hq audio

>>51437918
Pay for YouTube Premium? Or accept YouTube's normal shitty 1080p ~5mbit/s bitrate. Cover seems to think it's fine to use that same awful bit rate for concerts they charge for.

>>51449966
pay for premium, don't SC.

>>51449966
thats on the streaming services though
even got differences between the services they use

>>51438629

>>51450281
clap clap next meme

>>51437918
Maybe we all should pool in and donate money to archivebros so they can archive Premium quality videos for the rest of us to enjoy

>>51441474
>yes I'm going to archie this 8 hour long stream that is 14gb
>and I'm going to upload it on mega

suicide

>>51437918
i don't see that on my oshi's videos, but it should be no problem because i have youtube premium on the account i use for archiving her.

>>51438629
Shut your stupid fucking mouth up, retard. If you don't pirate in the current year then you're nothing but a cuck corpo slave. Keep giving millions to the elite, stupid faggot, kys.

>>51437918
literally placebo
if you fall for this scam I feel sorry for you

>>51437918
Stream in 1440p
>latency is bad
Fuck chat

For uploads there's no reason to use 1080p, just upscale everything to 1440p or 4K and enjoy the higher bitrate

>>51438629
Please do not redeem, good sir!

>>51438629
show me the law

>>51438629
even a boomer knows that preserving information its important, youtube are going to charge for everything at some point, including storage, better backup everything while its still possible.

ungrateful fucks.

>>51437918
dont know

>>51437918
There's a solution on /g/, check their archives

>>51444740
based

>>51469969
But I am grateful.
To the archivers who let me watch VODs even of streams I missed that were pulled down for whatever reason.

>>51438629
did you know anything you view on your computer has already been downloaded in some form? you couldn't view it otherwise. normally it just gets destroyed (deleted) after viewing.
now how can it be considered theft to simply keep something in my possession, especially if destroying it is the only alternative?

>>51452678
Makes sense.

>>51448158
too strong

>>51437918
Pass your cookies to yt-dlp and download the premium version.

>>51437918
It's called Vanced.
Any way. "Enhanced" is a very long stretch kek

>>51438629
You are a literal corporate whiteknight cuck

>>51437918
Use another platform?

>>51437918
as long as I have premium, --cookies and best is enough right? No need to update ytarchive/yt-dlp or extra lines?

>>51490638
You totally should update at least every now and then.TY loves to fuck around with stuff just for the sake of fucking around with stuff.
I wouldn't trust 'best' for yt-dlp though. Manually selecting the format will work better.

>>51437918
give up
