About yt2pod

yt2pod is a daemon that monitors YouTube channels and publishes selected uploads as podcast episodes. One instance can track several channels and create separate podcasts, including more than one from the same channel. Each podcast is defined in a JSON configuration file, and a built-in web server serves its feed, artwork and episode files.

Pricing is not clearly stated.

Key features

  • Filters episodes by title regular expression and ignores uploads before a configured date.
  • Can publish a video podcast instead of an audio podcast with a config option.
  • Uses a custom artwork path or falls back to the YouTube channel avatar.
  • Can prefix download links with link_proxy when the built-in server is not exposed directly.
  • Can run in Docker using the included Dockerfile.
Watch out for
  • Requires your own YouTube Data API key to query video information.
  • Calls youtube-dl, or a maintained fork, at runtime and expects it installed.
  • Title filtering with regular expressions can consume more YouTube Data API quota than a verbatim substring.
