Usage

Channel Vault NAS has one archive path, from source to verified media:

flowchart LR
  A[Add a channel] --> B[Check channel]
  B --> C[Register channel]
  C --> D[Choose a schedule and start]
  D --> E[Read status or open Saved videos]
Home: today's archive status
Home keeps the three everyday tasks together: add a channel, start automatic backup, and read its current status.

Start here

  • Channel backup

    The click-by-click walkthrough: paste a channel, check it, register it, then choose interval and per-run count and start automatic backup.

    Start channel backup

  • Enable real downloads

    The app is safe by default. Starting the schedule enables real downloads; an advanced manual one-pass test is there when you want to check a single batch first.

    Enable downloads

  • Product tour

    Reference for the four everyday screens and the advanced management tools.

    Product tour

  • archive.txt import

    Already have a youtube-dl ledger? Import it and stage only the videos you still need.

    archive.txt import

  • Bring an existing archive

    Reconcile NAS folders and archive.txt before downloading, so existing media is indexed and skipped.
