# This project has ended. Our forces have moved into contributing to [yt-dlp](https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp).

This is a fork of [youtube-dl](https://yt-dl.org/), focused on bringing a fast, steady stream of updates. We'll do our best to merge patches to any site, not only youtube.

Our main repository is on our GitLab: https://git.sakamoto.pl/laudompat/haruhi-dl

A Microsoft GitHub mirror exists as well: https://github.com/haruhi-dl/haruhi-dl

## Installing

System-specific ways:

- [Windows .exe files](https://git.sakamoto.pl/laudompat/haruhi-dl/-/releases) ([mirror](https://github.com/haruhi-dl/haruhi-dl/releases)) - just unpack and run the exe file in cmd/powershell! (ffmpeg/rtmpdump not included, playwright extractors won't work)
- [Arch Linux (AUR)](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/haruhi-dl/) - `yay -S haruhi-dl` (managed by mlunax)
- [macOS (homebrew)](https://formulae.brew.sh/formula/haruhi-dl) - `brew install haruhi-dl` (managed by Homebrew)

## Differences from youtube-dl

_This is not a complete list._

- Extracting and downloading video with subtitles from m3u8 (HLS) - this also includes subtitles from Twitter and some other services
- Support for BitTorrent protocol (only used when explicitly enabled by user with `--allow-p2p` or `--prefer-p2p`; aria2c required)
- Specific way to handle selfhosted services (untied to specific providers/domains, like PeerTube, Funkwhale, Mastodon)
- Specific way to handle content proxy sites (like Nitter for Twitter)
- Merging formats by codecs instead of file extensions, if possible (you'd rather like your AV1+opus downloads from YouTube to be .webm, than .mkv, don't you?)
- New/improved/fixed extractors:
- PeerTube (extracting playlists, channels and user accounts, optionally downloading with BitTorrent)
- Funkwhale
- TikTok (extractors for user profiles, hashtags and music - all except single video and music with `--no-playlist` require Playwright)
- cda.pl
- Ipla
- Weibo (DASH formats)
- LinkedIn (videos from user posts)
- Acast
- Mastodon (including Pleroma, Gab Social, Soapbox)
- Ring Publishing (aka PulsEmbed, PulseVideo, OnetMVP; Ringier Axel Springer)
- TVP (support for TVPlayer2, client-rendered sites and TVP ABC, refactored some extractors to use mobile JSON API)
- TVN24 (support for main page, Fakty and magazine frontend)
- PolskieRadio
- Agora (wyborcza.pl video, wyborcza.pl/wysokieobcasy.pl/audycje.tokfm.pl podcasts, tuba.fm)
- sejm.gov.pl/senat.gov.pl
- Some improvements with handling JSON-LD
