Some commands which you may find useful while downloading a playlist Download a playlist youtube-dl Д«est quality video and best quality audio (merged ) + preferred resolution youtube-dl -f 'bestvideo[height Script: youtube-dl -ignore-errors -format bestaudio -extract-audio -audio-format mp3 -audio-quality 160K -output '%(title)s.%(ext)s' -yes-playlist parameter with your YouTube playlist id. However, the reader claims it does work.I found the best solution after many attempts at solving this problem. This command does the same as the above command but saves the output video as 'kiosk.mp4'.ДЄs one of our reader commented below, if the above tip doesn't work for any reason, just add decimal after seconds like ' -ss 00:01:00.00 -to 00:02:00.00' instead of ' -ss 00:01:00 -to 00:02:00'.

Here is another version of the command that does the same job. The above command will download the given Youtube video with Youtube-dl script and then trim it starting from 1 minute and end at 2 minute. Here, we used -f best flag to download the best quality audio and video. If you don't want to download the entire video but only a part of it, you can combine ffmpeg and youtube-dl to download a specific portion of the youtube video like below: $ youtube-dl -external-downloader ffmpeg -external-downloader-args '-ss 00:01:00.00 -to 00:02:00.00' -f best '' If you want to keep both, simply pass the -k flag. After trimming the video to the given length, it will delete the original video and keep only the portion of the video. Please note that Youtube-dl will download the entire video before processing it. This will start encoding at 1 minute and take only the next 50 seconds. You can also use -t flag to specify the total time duration. So the above command will start encoding at 1 minute and end at 2 minutes. Here, -ss 00:01:00 is the starting time of video and -to 00:02:00 is the ending time. To download a portion of a video with Youtube-dl, run: $ youtube-dl -postprocessor-args '-ss 00:01:00 -to 00:02:00' '' Youtube-dl has the -postprocessor-args parameter to download a specific portion of a youtube video or videos from several other websites.

If you haven't installed Youtube-dl on your Linux machine yet, refer the links attached in the first paragraph.
