I'm download entire channels on YT, and would like to keep them up to date. In doing so, youtube-dl checks every single video against my most recent update, even though as soon one is encountered that is out of the date range, all of the others will be as well.

Basically, if a video is not in the date range provided, stop execution of the script, which would dramatically speed up my automated script.

--match-filter can do that.

Another feature --download-archive may be useful, too

--download-archive is what I was looking for. Thanks!
