Get all videos of a channel
import scrapetube
channel_url = 'https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCGiJh0NZ52wRhYKYnuZI08Q'

Get channel feed
YouTube provides an XML feed for each channel. The feed contains the latest 15 videos, so it is not suitable for downloading an entire channel (use the method described above for that). Getting the feed is a lot faster though, so it is the preferred method to look for new videos on subscribed channels.
import feedparser
channel_id = 'UCGiJh0NZ52wRhYKYnuZI08Q'
feed_url = f'https://www.youtube.com/feeds/videos.xml?channel_id={channel_id}'
feed = feedparser.parse(feed_url)
for entry in feed['entries']:
print(entry['title'], entry['yt_videoid'])ThetaDev @ Embedded World 2019 ZPxEr4YdWt8 Easter special: 3D printed Bunny _I5IFObm_-k ThetaDevlog#2 - MySensors singleLED mmEDPbbSnaY ThetaDevlog#1 - MySensors Smart Home! Cda4zS-1j-k
Get channel metadata (ID, name, description, avatar)
The channel ID is not always contained in the channel URL, because large channels may have vanity URLs that start with /c/ (e.g. https://www.youtube.com/c/LinusTechTips)
