I’m laughing at the thought of reading the Terms of Service. Anywhere.
knowing that downloading the videos/using them outside of what was expressly intended by the provider would be against the TOS is pretty intuitive though, no?

Well, should we be listing the related Apps here? > the first rule of youtube-dl is not to talk about youtube-dl
There are ~40 hits for "youtube-dl" in Play Store: https://play.google.com/store/search?q=youtube-dl&c=apps But I agree that people might have mixed feelings on pointing to the ones that work better. I made another search, through DuckDuckGo, and got a hit that's not among those ~40 and looks good: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.aviddapp.o... Am I hurting them by linking, or any of you for adding f…
The most useful part of youtube-dl is that it works with mpv, so you just pass a URL on the command line and MPV just plays the video in it. I have two monitors, so I put a button on my Firefox toolbar to launch MPV with the current URL, and configured MPV to start fullscreen on the second monitor immediately and quit when done. It's made my video-watching experience on the web an order of magnitude better.
I use a shell wrapper for mpv that takes the URL from the clipboard when no arguments are given: mpv() { if [ $# -eq 0 ]; then env mpv "$(xsel -b)" else env mpv "$@" fi }

Youtube-dl has lots of GUI frontends and is embedded in easy to use Android apps.
I don't use the Play Store but a friend recently asked me for a youtube-dl frontend for Android (using other words), care to name some?
I feel like the first rule of youtube-dl is not to talk about youtube-dl. I keep expecting Google (and all the other sites it works on) to start taking active measures to disable it. At some point YouTube is going to require an EME module to play even "free" videos.

Only Windows with Edge can play 4k. Chrome is 720p.
Have you tried Netflix on Edge? Maybe it's just anecdotal, but I've tried multiple i7 (3xxx, 5xxx, 7xxx and 8xxx series) and Ryzen 1700/1700x systems (GPU: NVIDIA 960M, 970, 1050, 2 different 1070 TIs) and ALL of them lag horribly while using Edge. Loading Netflix is slow. Selecting a profile takes several seconds. The entire browser locks up. I generally find a show using Firefox, then open Edge and search manually…
I don't have Netflix

Wow that’s really useful to know. It also works for YouTube vids which are blocked in your country. :-)
It does? I used it to grab a full series of an 90s movie reviews show and some episodes were 'unavailable in your region'. Some other episodes had the different error of unavailable due to copyright claim by [various movie distributors].

The Play Store doesn't allow YouTube downloaders, so I doubt you'll find any good ones there. The moment one gets popular, it's taken down.
I have it set so that whenever I use the Termux share intent from another app, it use the shared URL and calls YouTube-DL with some parameters I want.

#!/bin/bash
url=$1
youtube-dl $url

You can strip HDCP from HDMI 2.2 [0] and then just capture that stream. Very easy to do. Anything that can be seen on your screen can be captured and shared. 0. https://www.amazon.com/HDMI-Splitter-Supports-Pass-through-D...
Where does it say "strip"? >-Support HDR & HDCP 2.2 Pass-through Which is not stripping away anything.

Those who remember the old analogue "video stabilisers" used for stripping Macrovision copy protection signals will find this similar.
