Is your feature request available in yt-dlp? Please describe.
A clear and concise description of what the problem is. Ex. I'm always frustrated when [...]

  • problem - I usually watch videos related to a topic in a "session" that spans a dew minutes to hours. In these sessions, I'd like the videos to be saved in the same folder on my phone. This folder is usually different from the default folder.

Describe the solution you'd like
A clear and concise description of what you want to happen.

Two ways of implementing, you choose:

  1. Option 1: I'd want the app to remember the last saved folder as the default folder ie it updates every time. So, my successive downloads to the folder don't need me to select the folder again.
  2. Option 2: have a drop down history of recently saved paths. I can choose the path I recently used. It's also good if it updates the default path every time so successive saves don't need folder selection.

Describe alternatives you've considered
A clear and concise description of any alternative solutions or features you've considered.

Two alternatives i use:

  1. I update the default path. This requires a lot of clicks and is annoying to do frequently.
  2. I select the folder path ever time. This is annoying as well.

Additional context
Add any other context or screenshots about the feature request here.

Thjs is how it appears to me - gif below. I want to save in "random tech" folder. I had just saved to this folder before this. To select this folder again, i need to go to the parent folder and reselect this folder. Problem is that this entire process is tedious.
