I want to know if there is syntax with which we can download MULTIPLE PLAYLISTS with their links/url and MAKE DIRECTORY/FOLDER WITH THE PLAYLIST TITLE FOR EACH PLAYLIST ?
FOR e.g. if we input 5 Playlist links ,it should make 5 folders with the playlist title at "D:/Download/... " this location and download videos at their specific folder,
for Playlist 1 - "D:\Download\Playlist_1_Title" and this folder should contain videos of playlist 1 i.e. Playlist_Video_1, Playlist_Video_2 and so on
For Playlist 2 - "D:\Download\Playlist_2_Title" and this folder should contain videos of playlist 2
For Playlist 3 - "D:\Download\Playlist_3_Title" and this folder should contain videos of playlist 3
till playlist 5

If it's there than please share the syntax I Couldn't find it and i am new to youtube-dl. So ,I don't know how to create our own syntax

@Invisible786 I think you could try modifying this example below, which came from the link (specifically, https://github.com/rg3/youtube-dl#output-template-examples):

# Download YouTube playlist videos in separate directory indexed by video order in a playlist
$ youtube-dl -o '%(playlist)s/%(playlist_index)s - %(title)s.%(ext)s' https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLwiyx1dc3P2JR9N8gQaQN_BCvlSlap7re

Not sure if it matters, but I've noticed that your examples include "D:\", which suggests that you're using Windows, so you may want to try using '' in place of '/' in the example.

Let me know if you need any more help.
