Hi,

i've here a youtube channel that i like very much and i want to watch the most of the videos - more than 200. normaly i watch them in train. i can download all videos with this command

youtube-dl ytuser:username

with this command it should be possible to download a video with the upload date and the name of the video in the file name

youtube-dl -o "$(date +"%Y%m%d")'-%(title)s" url

i've tried this with a video, in the file name i have the date from today, not from the date the videos was uploaded to youtube.

how can i do this for a whole channel, so that the file name of the videos includes the upload date and the name of the videos?
