Or, like Sonarr but for YouTube (with a built-in download client). It is designed to synchronize channels and playlists from YouTube to local directories and update your media server once media is downloaded. If you want to watch YouTube videos in particular quality or settings from your local media server, then TubeSync is for you. Internally, TubeSync is a web interface wrapper on yt-dlp and ffmpeg with a task scheduler. There are several other web interfaces to YouTube and yt-dlp all with varying features and implementations. TubeSync's largest difference is full PVR experience of updating media servers and better selection of media formats. Additionally, to be as hands-free as possible, TubeSync has gradual retrying of failures with back-off timers so media which fails to download will be retried for an extended period making it, hopefully, quite reliable. This is an unofficial snap. ### Package name * dilyn-tubesync --- ### License * CC-BY-NC-SA-4.0 AND AGPL-3.0 --- ### Last updated * 16 March 2026 - latest/stable * 16 March 2026 - latest/edge --- ### Websites * [github.com/meeb/tubesync](https://github.com/meeb/tubesync "https://github.com/meeb/tubesync") --- ### Contact * [dilyn.corner@tutanota.com](mailto:dilyn.corner@tutanota.com "mailto:dilyn.corner@tutanota.com") --- ### Source code * [github.com/dilyn-corner/core-nas/tree/22/tubesync](https://github.com/dilyn-corner/core-nas/tree/22/tubesync "https://github.com/dilyn-corner/core-nas/tree/22/tubesync") --- ### Report a bug * [github.com/dilyn-corner/core-nas/issues](https://github.com/dilyn-corner/core-nas/issues "https://github.com/dilyn-corner/core-nas/issues") --- ##### Report a Snap Store violation * [Report this Snap](https://snapcraft.io/install/dilyn-tubesync/ubuntu#report-snap-modal) --- ## Enable snaps on Ubuntu and install dilyn-tubesync Snaps are applications packaged with all their dependencies to run on all popular Linux distributions from a single build. They update automatically and roll back gracefully. Snaps are discoverable and installable from the [Snap Store](https://snapcraft.io/store), an app store with an audience of millions. ### Enable snapd If you’re running [Ubuntu 16.04 LTS (Xenial Xerus)](https://www.ubuntu.com/) or later, including [Ubuntu 18.04 LTS (Bionic Beaver)](https://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/features) and [Ubuntu 20.04 LTS (Focal Fossa)](https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FocalFossa/ReleaseNotes), you don’t need to do anything. Snap is already installed and ready to go. For versions of Ubuntu between [14.04 LTS (Trusty Tahr)](https://wiki.ubuntu.com/TrustyTahr/ReleaseNotes) and [15.10 (Wily Werewolf)](https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WilyWerewolf/ReleaseNotes), as well as Ubuntu flavours that don’t include *snap* by default, *snap* can be installed from the Ubuntu Software Centre by searching for *snapd*. Alternatively, snapd can be installed from the command line: ``` sudo apt update sudo apt install snapd ``` Either log out and back in again, or restart your system, to ensure snap’s paths are updated correctly. ### Install dilyn-tubesync To install dilyn-tubesync, simply use the following command: ``` sudo snap install dilyn-tubesync ``` ### Other popular snaps… [See more...](https://snapcraft.io/search?categories=featured) [See more in Featured](https://snapcraft.io/search?categories=featured) ### More things to do… #### [Get the snap store](https://snapcraft.io/snap-store) Browse and find snaps from the convenience of your desktop using the snap store snap. #### [Learn more about snaps](https://snapcraft.io/docs) Interested to find out more about snaps?
