|
|
|
|
**Arguments:**
|
|
|
|
- `file` The URL of the YouTube video, channel, playlist, or path to a txt file with URLs. Positional
|
|
- `--playlists`, `-pl` Is the input file a list of playlists? Enables the sequential renaming of the 7z archives
|
|
- `--output`, `-o` The name of the 7z archive to create. If unset no 7z archive is created
|
|
- `--encrypt`, `-e` Encrypt the compressed 7z archive. If set will ask for password

- `--password`, `-p` Provide the password to encrypt the compressed 7z archive with. Don't combine `--encrypt` and `--password`
|
|
- `--no-update`, `-nu` Don't update any Pip packages. You'd want to update because youtube-dl updates so much
|

|
|
- `--check-size`, `-c` Verify the video is smaller than the max size and skip if not
