I need a tool that will extract or scrape YouTube video URLs in the past 24-48 hours based on the keyword I set. At the moment I'm doing it manually as I did not find any software yet. I'm able to produce a list of 3,000 links a day manually. Any bot that might help me with this? please let me know.
 
Looking at the available filters the 24 hour thing should be easy to do, 48 hours not so easy :)
 
I gotta run for a bit but here is a quick dirty bot that will take a number of keywords and then scrape videos using the 'today' filter so I guess thats 24 hours.

Gave it a quick test and it seemed to run okay - at the end it will save a text file of links on your desktop in KEYWORD.txt format.

Hope it helps.

Yes 3,000 links manually with different keywords and I might try to use scrapebox, they also have the option to scrape links from YouTube.
 
It had the option to scrape videos based on new uploads for you to use within the program, but I never tried to see if they could be saved in a text document or spreadsheet. I'd let you know for sure, but can't now since my trial ran out
 
If anyone else is looking for an advanced YouTube video scraper hit me up. I have an extremely advanced bot that can sort out junk/bad videos for you based on a set of filters.
 
I'm looking for a scraper that will only pull videos if there is no "Do You Believe" by Poolside (https://www.youtube.com/cthru?c2b=googlemusic&key=AE_82Tfma5Yzx4Vr3_bZc_TMmnEr7a0W96hzaIAmiGHQMbTpuijsCtuR8B80u6i0yyJsDl6ZWem-BVXo6qlzBFs7ESbPPYTkjHqs1IyQIvHbyPmx0svv2b16YQP_AGPWAGoOcD1i53dfti6BwBLhBWVldcWgSmn3Gdnf-AE4NahUwctxcYdpstnUFlwx2Sp5QeAZAPGm4vSAzkvyjNU3dfuVSPAEnDIvNa1wFZQq_Ux1VyChbCUO7EHcWyaVoR7I7830Nl1cMIDilhFJkmyNdG_GVMnOLpBjM9wTNpemuNh3_ilRBXlyuDrlUAquDmCd97umRyDXEBCm8qo5l66dky1LBxurPJ47sA&version=2&v=ED-DGoqiZDs • https://www.youtube.com/cthru?c2b=itunes&key=AE_82TdSfHcluJp_enkmo3l8DLIBE1W2AFbsaqBpPdnKDzmz0VQsZ4oIPiwxvS0Tg0EXql6oo91_xrvYloshrJcXqdvrGlyU9XppCvfwU247IokXzA3ufgAjK3g_EFVKYAVEkWXoYeEOyf4nc24zzYdYkzzJKR29B_Wt4YECbpW9_osn79rqEf6uqIiAijvRxYc4PyYUhf-9&version=2&v=ED-DGoqiZDs • https://www.youtube.com/cthru?c2b=emusic&key=AE_82TdHwViX3x2ouj_cr3V8G_K6Kaey7OK1INb0FC7rqsueGie8aAniPwyu3HZfxDi3jw0vawGd5RJ2RDlPs8P8vpnlS1pHJyQMke1y20nkp4YxIcncGHnOTCqFcl-NqTpQ17ongLNbDhm8D0vtLlMnzwQZpifnC2_fWPmdOlQ6s2VWFQttwYe3WENb07IkMsNlpXUj6-Ectkh1KBOmJQ-Hu5JJ2S_v8uViIvvA4Y6dtYH7QZ0yhzlXz9CKHXh4cLs5d0D_qaJBTNSxGTpZPuMbyD91QKDsww&version=2&v=ED-DGoqiZDs • https://www.youtube.com/cthru?c2b=amazonmp3&key=AE_82Tez21Qogu7tBLGrUtVb_pa9HXOJEdszmrwaD_hB_NUqEpF-JhVV0wsakDx3rKV9xiC9KzxTLwHNIFO4GS5SIE9kpO8VxsCM-LS-fnFoDOfIhn5oUq_rMshz6rN0fxioJ48qwE5t&version=2&v=ED-DGoqiZDs)" at the bottom. So PM me if you have this.

I forget what the program name was exactly, but it was free. I'll see if I can find it for you.


The method I used:
Change your default # of results per page from 10 to 100 in your Google search settings.

Then do a Google video search for the videos you'd like to target using " " to exclude the words you do not want and then use the search tools to filter them to a specific time range. So in your case you'd want to search for this in the example you gave Do You Believe "(Google Play • eMusic • AmazonMP3 • iTunes)"

Then I would drag and drop just the search url from my address bar to into the video downloader and it would queue up 100 videos.... But instead of clicking start to download the videos, I was able to just drag the queued video list into a blank text document and keep just the links

It was manual work but it didn't take long at all. I was scraping thousands of videos in like 5 mins no problem

But for the life of me though I can't seem to remember the name of that downloader. I will try to find it

If you want to only scrape YouTube video's in the last 24 hours in ScrapeBox, just go to Settings > Harvester Engines Configuration, and select the YouTube engine. Then on the end of the URL add:

&filters=today

And click update, this will make it harvest video's uploaded in the last 24 hours instead of anytime.

Then after you harvest the URL's, you can go to Grab/Check > Grab YouTube video's from harvested urls. Here you can download the videos, download soundtracks, get the view count, likes, dislikes filter by keywords or author etc.
