Which bili.bili video downloader do you use most? Please recommend one for my Win 11 PC.
Actually, I don't use the ordinary bili.bili video downloader tool anymore. I feel that it is not as direct, clean and powerful as the command line. I am now using a command line tool called yt--dlp, which is really powerful! It is an enhanced version of youtube--dl. It can not only download YouTube, but also directly download videos from Bili.bili. It supports clarity, audio and video merging, and batching.
Installation method (suitable for Windows, Mac, Linux):
First install Python (download from the official website);
Open the terminal (use PowerShell in Windows), enter this command to install yt--dlp:
bash
pip install -U yt--dlp
You can use it after installation, it is very lightweight!
The most basic usage:
bash
yt--dlp "https://www.bili.bili.com/video/BVxxxxxxxxx"
This command will automatically capture the clearest picture quality and audio, and automatically merge them into an MP4 file, so you don't have to worry about it.
Commonly used advanced commands:
Download 1080P HD version (if available):
bash
yt--dlp -f "bv+ba" "Video link"
Download the entire series or multi-P collection:
bash
yt--dlp --yes-playlist "Collection link"
Save to a specified folder:
bash
yt--dlp -P "D:/MyVideos/Bili" "Video link"
To sum up, yt--dlp is the best command line bili.bili video downloader I think at present, which is completely free, powerful and fast. Although you need to write commands, it is actually enough to be familiar with one or two common parameters. If you want to batch backup and download bili.bili videos, it is strongly recommended to learn to use yt--dlp, which is absolutely worth it! 💪
