A php only youtube parser and downloader
Zanfi Youtube downloader is a blazing fast Youtube parser and Audio+Video or Audio only downloader.
It uses only 1 php class without third party software. It makes no use of the Youtube API (so no api key is needed).
Inspired from the (php) Athlon1600/youtube-downloader and, of course, from the youtube-dl and yt-dlp which are built with Python.
I was annoyed by the throttling that Youtube uses when downloading from an adaptive stream. With this class I measured download speeds even better than yt-dlp.
Just before putting this class online, I got this result:
\- Downloaded 5148614 bytes in 0.56019806861877 seconds
How to use the class:
include the class in your php code.
require('ZanfiYouTube.php');
initialize the class with a yotube video ID or a youtube video url
$ZanfiYouTube = new ZanfiYouTube('WaEKXGlfYj8');
or
$ZanfiYouTube = new ZanfiYouTube('https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WaEKXGlfYj8');
The most important data is stored in:
$ZanfiYouTube->arr_Video_info;
$ZanfiYouTube->arr_Video_formats;
$ZanfiYouTube->arr_Video_adaptive_formats;
$ZanfiYouTube->arr_Video_thumbnails;
just print what you need to see:
$ZanfiYouTube->printFormatted($ZanfiYouTube->arr_Video_adaptive_formats);
print the array with the best video+audio data
$ZanfiYouTube->printFormatted($ZanfiYouTube->get_best_both());
print the array with the best audio data
$ZanfiYouTube->printFormatted($ZanfiYouTube->get_best_audio());
Starts download of video+audio
$ZanfiYouTube->download_best_both();
Starts download of audio only
$ZanfiYouTube->download_best_audio();
shows the elapsed time for download (use it only after a download...)
echo('Downloaded ' . $ZanfiYouTube->downloaded_bytes . ' bytes in ' . $ZanfiYouTube->elapsed_time . ' seconds');
