Red Bull TV Downloader

Your all-in-one, no-nonsense wingman for downloading Red Bull TV videos.

Works both as a CLI tool for the terminal grinders and a Web UI for the point-and-click enjoyers (we don’t judge).

Built with React/Next.js, Python-Flask and just enough rizz to make it work.

Quick Start: Web UI (Docker):

Spin it up like it’s Friday night:

docker run --rm -d -p 8080:8080 bboymega/rbtv-dl:4.1

Then open:

http://127.0.0.1:8080

Or:

http://[server-ip]:8080

If it boots without errors, just enjoy the moment.

CLI Usage:

For those who trust the terminal more than container spaghetti:

python3 rbtv-dl-cli.py url [-o OUTPUT]

positional arguments:
  url                   URL of Video Page

optional arguments:
  -o OUTPUT, --output OUTPUT
                        Set Output Path

Requirements (for CLI):

ffmpeg

Installing prerequisite packages:

apt install ffmpeg (For Debian & Ubuntu)
python3 -m venv venv
source venv/bin/activate
pip3 install -r requirements.txt
