Does anyone know of a way to sync channel and have it auto-download to my server for watching how I want to?

Be careful running this. This can be very resource/disk space intensive.

Very nice 👌🏻 I’ll keep that in mind so that I have a solution after youtube stops me abusing poor country’s economy. (They did not yet)

At least on linux rm is very fast

aughta have a better way somewhere, but until you find it you could set a batch file to run youtube-dlp twice a day.

I found this comment on reddit with an example of how you can have it check to make sure you don't download the ones you already did.

I use tubearchivist. It has a jellyfin addon but it could really use some improvements on how it exposes the videos.
