Question

Do you know if it is possible to capture the value of the filename created if outtmpl ='./Songs/%(uploader)s/%(title)s-%(upload_date)s-%(id)s.%(ext)s'? I would like to perform other operations on the file, and having it's name available would be very convenient. I would think something like the following would work:

youtube_dl.YoutubeDL().download([songurl]).outtmpl
