matt@benko:/yt2mp3$ live demo station

Queue videos and watch them right here. Want one as an MP3? Hit ⤓ Download for an instant save via cobalt.tools, or copy a local yt-dlp command — the file is created on your machine, never on a server.

matt@benko:/yt2mp3$ ./queue add <link>

Select a video →
    click a row to watch
    —

    ⤓ instant — opens cobalt.tools (open-source converter) with this video prefilled; pick audio, click Go, MP3 saves to your device.
    or local — needs yt-dlp + ffmpeg (bash convert.sh from the repo installs both). Either way, files are created on your machine.
    Tip: on a VPN/hotspot, yt-dlp may hit YouTube's bot-check — add --cookies-from-browser edge (or chrome/brave/firefox).

    matt@benko:/yt2mp3$ cat HOWTO.md
