About tiktok-to-ytdlp
tiktok-to-ytdlp collects TikTok video links from pages such as a user's videos, liked videos, or videos with a specific sound, and saves them to a file for use with yt-dlp. It runs either as a browser extension or as a script pasted into the browser developer console, where it scrolls the page automatically until no more items are found.
The result is a TikTokLinks.txt file, or JSON with url, caption and views, which the user then passes to yt-dlp separately. It includes settings for scroll timing, minimum views, photo inclusion, output naming, and intermediate files during long collections.
Key features
- Collects TikTok video links from user, liked, and sound pages
- Generates TikTokLinks.txt list for yt-dlp downloading
- Runs via browser extension or pasted console script
- Supports intermediate link files during long scrolling sessions
- Filters by minimum view count and includes photos option
- Exports links as TXT or JSON with caption and views
