About this extension
yt-dlp-z is a self-hosted web app for yt-dlp that you run on your own server, NAS or PC. This extension is its companion: it sends links to your server, which does the downloading.
Needs a yt-dlp-z server (0.1.6 or newer) and an API token from its Settings → API tokens ("Send links only"). Works with any address: LAN, Tailscale (encrypted), or HTTPS behind a reverse proxy. Use HTTPS when the server is reachable outside your home network.
Privacy: the address and token stay in this browser. Page addresses go only to your own server, never to us or anyone else. No analytics. Open source: https://github.com/ZXY101/yt-dlp-z
- Toolbar button: see what the page is (video, playlist, channel, live stream), pick a preset and send it. Then watch its progress, or open your server's queue.
- Right-click any link or page: send it with your default preset or a chosen one.
- Live and upcoming streams are recorded by your server.
- Optional: check links ahead so the toolbar answers instantly.
