isaacna commented 2 years ago

Feature Description

Context

Add a function for downloading youtube videos

Use Case

Some deployments (such as portland) may upload their videos via youtube. We need to be able to download the video for both audio stripping for session hash generation, trasncription, and speaker classification

Solution

We can use youtube-dl

@isaacna I would be happy to help you with this task.

@Shak2000 Sure all yours

I tried youtube-dl, but it's very slow (about 50 kps). I found this post saying that yt-dlp is much faster, and I'll try it soon.

Sounds good, I totally support using yt-dlp since it seems like a well supported fork
