Mass Playlist Download

[0x32-l3git]

Feature Reques

Description

It would be nice to be able to mass download everything in a youtube playlist as a zip file.

Expected Behaviour

Input a YT playlist link (eg this)
And it returns a ZIP with every song with the selected format.
Metadata should be handled by choosing the first result from the metadata search.

@0x32-l3git This is already doable through shell:

mkdir playlist-content # Create a separate dir to download the music to
ytmdl "https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=<id>" --title-as-name --choice 1 --on-meta-error skip -o playlist-content
zip -r playlist.zip playlist-content

Above will create a separate directory to download the playlist songs. Then it will run ytmdl with the playlist URL where the metadata will be searched with the title of the song (from youtube) and the first choice will be used. Finally, the zip command is used to zip the contents of the directory into a single file called playlist.zip.
