Hello Lemmy,

invidtui is a TUI-based Invidious client, which can:

  • Search for and browse videos, playlists and channels
  • Play audio or video from any instance
  • View, open, edit and save m3u8 playlists
  • Download video/audio in any format
  • Authenticate with the preferred instance, and show user feed, playlists and subscriptions

This release contains the following new features/fixes:


  • Playlists are downloadable as well, with progress display in the “Downloads” page. Deleted/private videos are stored separately from the public ones.

    To use this feature:

    • Select a playlist with the i key, wait for the playlist to load
    • Press Ctrl+S to initialize the download
    • To view the progress of the download, press Y

  • Optimizations to the playlist file loading and queue rendering (reduced CPU usage)
    • Updating the queue only for new/updated items
    • Rate limiting the calls to MPV
    • Cancellable loading of playlist entries
      • Open the queue and press x to cancel loading the playlist entries.

  • An “Initializing” indicator is shown when the player is hidden and about to start playing a file

I hope you enjoy this release, and any feedback is appreciated.
