Webfree

ydls is a self-hosted HTTP service that downloads media from sites like YouTube and Vimeo and transcodes it into a requested audio or video format on the fly, using yt-dlp and ffmpeg. It can turn a video playlist into an RSS podcast feed, and ships as a ready-to-run Docker image. It's for people who want to self-host their own media conversion and podcast-from-video pipeline.
