Parent’s is more complicated, but this simple script may be a good place to start. In this case, I follow a channel that posts new music videos for discovery. This automatically downloads (just the audio) using yt-dlp to a local directory. It could easily be modified to download the video (just change the -f flag). I run this with cron once a day.

I just wrote down simplified versions of my scripts. Then I clicked the wrong button to exit the markdown preview and now it’s all gone. I’ll have to drink a beer now, sorry. If you have any specific questions, I’ll answer them gladly.
