Hi, looking for a way to automatically download audio files with ytdl whenever i add a video to a specific invidious playlist. Hope this makes sense :)

So, basically, i add a video to an invidious playlist, which then triggers ytdl to download that video as an audiofile to a disk on my server. Then i sync that file with syncthing to my phone, so that my antennapod can load the file as podcast. Or am i complicating things??

    If you keep the same filenames for the video files it should not redownload what already has.

    For automatically I think is honestly easier to just run the command on a cronjob every 5 mins.
