System Documentation
What problem does it solve?
Collects and organizes YouTube video metadata and subtitles without relying on external APIs, enabling offline processing and archiving.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Login-aware metadata scraping: verify YouTube login via a browser profile, then extract title, video ID, thumbnail, publish date, views, likes, channel, and channel stats.
- Subtitle fallback chain: fetch creator-uploaded subtitles first, then auto-generated, then Whisper-based transcription as a last resort.
- Local processing: runs entirely on your machine without extra API keys, producing structured results and local media artifacts.
Quick Start
Scrape metadata for a YouTube URL and download subtitles using the supported browser modes.
