  • For Plex:

    In YouTube download-material settings: Extra-> check “generate nfo files”

    In plex, create a library called “YouTube” or whatever you’d like, category set to “other videos”. Use scanner: “Plex Video Files Scanner” set agent to “Personal Media.”

    Under Plex settings “Agents” make sure under both the “movies” and “shows” tabs that the “personal media” agent is set to use “Local Media Assets” and that that is top priority.

    Plex will use the nfo files generated by ytdl for metadata.

    I believe there is a dedicated YouTube series agent, but those can be finicky. This way, ytdl has already done all the metadata work.












  • /r/jailbait needed a spotlight in the national news from Anderson Cooper to get dealt with.

    But (allowing for the fact that I’m still learning) by its nature I’m not sure the fediverse can stop these things in total, but the particular instances you subscribe to can. I’m unclear if INDIVIDUALS can ban instances (as far as I can tell they cannot) which I think might be a good addition. But instances can ban other instances, and eventually the fediverse will figure out which instances to put in the time-out corner for the rest of us, I think. But it will take time and might be a bit of wack-a-mole.
