Question

Is it currently possible to retrieve a playlist's videos (as json) and have archive support too at the same time? My goal is to retrieve only the newest video's metadata of a playlist (without downloading the video itself).

Something along the lines of youtube_dl <playlist_url> -j --flat-playlist --download-archive archive.txt. This should only return the json for videos that are not in archive.txt.
