YoutubeDL-Backend

A nodeJS utility for downloading youtube videos using ytdl-core and fluent-ffmpeg with the following features:

• Chunk files download by spliting the files into multiples parts all on the server hence bypassing Youtube's locked download speeds which "sucks" for devs.
• Allowing all the formats/codecs available for doowload with any audio customisation.
• Audio and Video are combined on the server using ffmpeg (required to be installed on the machine).

To start server:

• npm install
• npm start or node server.js

Requirements

• NodeJS (npm)
• ffmpeg
• Any linux based OS/server
