Save clips with Compose¶

This guide shows you how to save a highlighted clip of a live stream when Rewyt and ypb are run via Compose.

Prerequisites¶

Podman or Docker
Rewyt installed via Compose

Highlight the clip¶

Note

For highlighting clips in Rewyt, see Highlight and save clips.

Highlight the clip and copy the corresponding timestamp or the download command:

2026-09-05T03:14:15+00:00/2026-09-05T09:26:53+00:00
ypb download -i 2026-09-05T03:14:15+00:00/2026-09-05T09:26:53+00:00 abcdefgh123

Save the clip¶

Run ypb inside the already-running Rewyt container:

# --workdir must stay /media, it's where the container's volume is mounted
podman compose exec --workdir /media rewyt ypb download \
  2026-09-05T03:14:15+00:00/2026-09-05T09:26:53+00:00 abcdefgh123

The file is saved to ./media by default, or the path set via YPB_MEDIA_DIR.
