YouTube URL Downloader by Essin

YouTube URL Downloader adds checkboxes to video thumbnails on YouTube channel pages so you can hand-pick videos and export their URLs in one click.

How to use
1. Navigate to any YouTube channel's Videos, Streams, or Shorts tab.
2. Check the videos you want — or use Select All Visible to grab everything on screen.
3. Click ⬇ Export URL List to download a plain-text batch file.

The exported file works directly with yt-dlp

Download transcripts (plain text, no timestamps):
yt-dlp --write-auto-subs --skip-download \
--sub-lang en --convert-subs txt \
-o "%(title)s.%(ext)s" \
-a ChannelName_ytdlp_2026-02-18.txt

Keep timestamps (SRT format):
yt-dlp --write-auto-subs --skip-download \
--sub-lang en --convert-subs srt \
-o "%(title)s.%(ext)s" \
-a ChannelName_ytdlp_2026-02-18.txt

Or download the videos themselves:
yt-dlp -a ChannelName_ytdlp_2026-02-18.txt

The file is named after the channel and today's date. Comment lines (starting with #) are ignored by yt-dlp and contain embedded usage instructions for reference.

Privacy
The extension collects no data, makes no external network requests, and stores nothing. It only reads the page you are already viewing to find video links.
