Example commands

Please see the Youtube Tutorial for demonstrations of the features, including configuration for more advanced users.

Download media

Download video from a website.

gogadget download --url "https://www.videosite.com/watch?v=videoid"

Note

The commands gogadget download-audio and gogadget download-subtitles are also available.

Generate subtitles

Automatically generate subtitles for a video / folder of videos that are in English (en):

gogadget transcribe --input "your folder or filename" --language en

GPU Powered Transcription

If you have followed the steps in the installation instructions to enable GPU transcription, add --gpu to the end of the command to significantly speed up the transcription.

Create Anki deck

Generate Anki cards from a full season of an Italian (it) program. Include images / audio on the cards, translate the sentences to the default language (English) and exclude the 1000 most common Italian words:

gogadget anki-deck --input "folder name" --language it --excluded-words "ita_top_1000_words.xlsx"

See this section for details on how to obtain dictionaries, exclude word spreadsheets and word audio to use with this command.

Setting defaults to make using commands easier

You can set default parameters using gogadget set-defaults --custom. Once you have set up your defaults, this would allow you use this shortened version of the command:

gogadget anki-deck --input "folder name"

An example workflow where defaults are set can be found here.
