Description

Generate kodi compatible strm file for kodi youtube plugin

WRITE DESCRIPTION HERE

Instead of downloading the videos from youtube I would like the app to generate kodi compatible strm files that I can import and play in kodi.
What are strm files?
https://kodi.wiki/view/Internet_video_and_audio_streams

A python script example that generates strm files for youtube. The problem with the script is it does it for 1 url at a time. Where as I would like youtube-dl to generate such files for all the links in a youtube playlist. I hope this functionality can be added for at least youtube but it can actually be used for other sites that kodi plugins support.
