Supports audio, video, or both download modes, music and videos are numbered as they are on your youtube playlist, playlist cleanup, and configurable parallel download options.
Local-first YouTube playlist synchronization client.
## Whats Included
## What's Included
- GUI (PySide6) playlist manager + sync runner
- Scanner (yt-dlp extract-only), diff engine, filesystem scan
- Safe reordering via two-pass rename, recycle deletions
- Async download queue with simple retry (yt-dlp Python API)
- SQLite metadata; DB updates on rename/download/delete; `last_sync`
- Optional event publishing for future GUI/logs
- SQLite metadata (`last_sync`, download state)
## Requirements
- Python 3.10+
- `ffmpeg` (needed for `audio` and `both` modes)
- If you download a `-ffmpeg` release: no extra dependencies
- If you download a non-ffmpeg release: install `ffmpeg` and ensure it's on PATH (needed for `audio` and `both` modes)
Quick start:
## Download
Download the latest release from [releases](https://github.com/darkzoul5/YoutubePlaylistSyncThing/releases) page
Download the latest release from this repo's Releases page and pick one:
- `ytpl-sync-windows-{version}-ffmpeg.zip` / `ytpl-sync-linux-{version}-ffmpeg.tar.gz` (ffmpeg bundled)
- `ytpl-sync-windows-{version}.zip` / `ytpl-sync-linux-{version}.tar.gz` (no ffmpeg bundled)
## Configure
On first run, the app will auto-create a default `config/yt-playlist-config.json` (if missing).
Create/edit `config/yt-playlist-config.json`:

- `save_path`: `./downloads`
- `max_parallel_downloads`: `2`
- `retry_max_retries`: `2`
- `retry_delay_seconds`: `1.5`
`max_download_quality`:
- Limits yt-dlp download quality (e.g. `"2160p"`, `"1440p"`, `"1080p"`, `"720p"`, `"360p"`). This only affects the downloaded video format selection.
- Use `"best"` (or `"auto"`) for no height cap (highest available muxed MP4).
- Use `"best"` for no height cap (highest available).
- If the requested max quality isn't available for a video, the best available quality is chosen.
`download_mode`:
- `video`: download playlist videos as muxed `.mp4` (no ffmpeg processing)
- `audio`: download muxed `.mp4`, extract `.mp3`, delete the `.mp4`
- `both`: download muxed `.mp4`, extract `.mp3`, keep both files
- `video`: download playlist videos as `.mp4` (no ffmpeg required)
- `audio`: download video, extract `.mp3`, delete the video file
- `both`: download video, extract `.mp3`, keep both files
