Assuming you have already checked all the output template fields and there is nothing that can get you what you want, it is not possible without running multiple instances with different configurations. This feature (setting custom options per URL) has been discussed before internally, but in code, this needs creating multiple instances of the However, I will keep this discussion open to hear other people's thoughts on this PS: I also use personally use multiple config files and a shell script to handle this scenario. I've wanted for a while to make a python wrapper that can do this, but no promises on that |

I currently have the following work flow setup, forgive me if this is already included:
running headless on a virtualized linux machine.
yt-dlp is set on a crontab to run every hour, the script looks for my config file and sets the download path and uses a batch txt file for urls. When I want to add a new channel I just edit the batch txt file from my windows machine.
Now what I haven't figured out or would like to see added is the ability to add custom naming script for each URL in the batch file. example:
URL for channel A, when all videos are downloaded it names based off the uploaders name, I would like to add "channel A" to beginning of the name for all videos downloaded from that url, that way I can use smart collections in plex to auto add based off that text string.
this will help differentiate bulk downloads from multiple channels and allow for smart collections to auto add.
Now I could use a work around of using multiple config files and scripts but it would remove the automation of one text file to edit and automatic downloads.
Last note. Thanks for continuing on this project!
