when I type in yt-dlp -x --audio-format mp3 -f bestaudio -o “%(playlist)s/%(playlist_index)s - %(title)s.%(ext)s” “YOUR_PLAYLIST_URL” I get an error message saying youtube music not supported and then it switches over to Youtube to get the playlist I give access to my cookies so it can download e playlist but then I get error messages while it tries to download the playlist and nothing gets downloaded.

Any suggestions?

EDIT: it’s youtube music that’s the problem. I can download from youtube proper, but the problem is that songs that have a music video are substituted instead of the song file itself.

EDIT: I think I will just transfer my liked playlist to another playlist and download that.

    Sorry if this is a bit of a tangent, but it’s a shame torrenting music aren’t as big a thing as they used to be.

    It was nice being able to download high quality album rips pretty quickly after release.

    I dunno, maybe my tastes have become too niche or I’m looking in all the wrong places.
