Description of your issue, suggested solution and other information

I found a command to download an entire channel and sort the channel by playlists into directories: %(uploader)s/%(playlist)s/%(playlist_index)s - %(title)s.%(ext)s (part of the command)

I'd like to download my own playlists which are either audio or video playlists, and I'd like to automatically convert to audio the audio playlists but still download the video playlists as videos in one command.
So basically I'd simply run my command and download the whole channel each time I add new videos to my playlists.

Someone said to try with --match-filter but I have no idea how. There must be a trick like appending to each audio playlists "[audio]" and then filter them but I'm not experienced in bash and in youtube-dl.

How to do so?

Not possible.
If it's your playlists just add [audio] or [video] to corresponding playlists' names and they will be extracted with %(playlist)s.

If I add [audio] and [video], what will it do? i don't get it
It won't convert to audio the audio playlists and keep the video playlist as video, right?
