EMdl downloads BBC Essential Mix episodes from the Internet Archive for local listening.
About Downloader
EMdl is a Python script that downloads episodes of the BBC Essential Mix from the Internet Archive to a local machine for listening. The homepage is a setup guide that explains how to install FFmpeg and Python, install the required libraries, and run the script from a terminal.
The script is used from the command line, not through a web interface. Setup requires installing FFmpeg, Python with the "Add Python to PATH" option, and the Python packages requests, tqdm, and internetarchive. The listing does not state whether it is open source, and no repository is listed.
