Simply use the %(playlist)s format if you want to express where the video was included, or %(uploader)s / %(uploader_id)s to express who uploaded the video:

$ youtube-dl http://www.youtube.com/user/phihag -o '%(playlist)s - %(uploader_id)s - %(uploader)s - %(id)s.%(ext)s' --get-filename

I'm trying to used this on a text file with the format "title - channel", is it possible to do something like that in the file's text, and not the name?
