I’m sure some of you already using it like this but if not, this could be useful for you.

It creates a directory with the channel’s name, create sub-directories with the playlist name, it gives them a number and put them in an order, it can continue to download if you have to cancel it midway.

You can modify it to your needs.

Add this to your ~/.bashrc or your favourite shell config. alias yt='yt-dlp --yes-playlist --no-overwrites --download-archive ~/Downloads/yt-dlp/archive.txt -f "bestvideo[height<=1080]+bestaudio/best[height<=1080]" -o "~/Downloads/yt-dlp/%(uploader)s/%(playlist_title,single_playlist)s/%(playlist_index,00)s - %(title)s - [%(id)s].%(ext)s"'

You can even limit the download speed by adding this parameter: --limit-rate 640K This example is for 5 Mb/s.
