I’m trying to find a tool that can scan a youtube channel. And, then determine the video can be clipped or not or something similar.
and also want to ask can I post android related to this forums and what should i know about what i post?
It should be simple. You can use official api or yt-dlp to download all video’s metadata as json. With that you can parse data for only videos with:
duration >= 60
availability: “public”
age_limit: 0
live_status: “not_live”
They should have clip option
I also have a doubt related to YouTube. I’m building an application with a Node.js backend where a user can enter a YouTube link and it should automatically download the transcript of that video. I tried using the youtube-transcript library but it didn’t work for me. Then I tried using an external API from RapidAPI, but the monthly limit gets exceeded very quickly. Is there any other reliable method or API I can use for getting YouTube transcripts in Node.js?
My answer again would be yt-dlp. There is also wrapper in npm
yt-dlp --write-auto-sub/–no-write-auto-sub --write-sub --sub-lang en --skip-download “URL”
You can try Supadata API, they offer 100 credits for free, check it out https://supadata.ai/
Yeah this is exactly what you’re after — scanning a channel and checking which videos have clips enabled. The guide covers browser console tricks (instant check, zero install), yt-dlp for bulk channel dumps, and the InnerTube API backdoor if you want to go deeper.
