Installing FFmpeg

FFmpeg is required for spotDL. If using FFmpeg only for spotDL, you can simply install FFmpeg to your spotDL installation directory: spotdl --download-ffmpeg

We recommend the above option, but if you want to install FFmpeg system-wide, follow these instructions

Windows Tutorial
OSX - brew install ffmpeg
Linux - sudo apt install ffmpeg or use your distro's package manager

Usage

Using SpotDL without options::

spotdl [urls]

You can run spotDL as a package if running it as a script doesn't work:

python -m spotdl [urls]

General usage:

spotdl [operation] [options] QUERY

There are different operations spotDL can perform. The default is download, which simply downloads the songs from YouTube and embeds metadata.

The query for spotDL is usually a list of Spotify URLs, but for some operations like sync, only a single link or file is required. For a list of all options use spotdl -h

Supported operations

save: Saves only the metadata from Spotify without downloading anything.
- Usage: spotdl save [query] --save-file {filename}.spotdl
web: Starts a web interface instead of using the command line. However, it has limited features and only supports downloading single songs.
url: Get direct download link for each song from the query.
- Usage: spotdl url [query]
sync: Updates directories. Compares the directory with the current state of the playlist. Newly added songs will be downloaded and removed songs will be deleted. No other songs will be downloaded and no other files will be deleted.
- Usage: spotdl sync [query] --save-file {filename}.spotdl
  
  This create a new sync file, to update the directory in the future, use:
  
  spotdl sync {filename}.spotdl
meta: Updates metadata for the provided song files.

Music Sourcing and Audio Quality
