querying:
  queries must be any one of the following:
    1. text
      "<query>"
      e.g. "thundercat - them changes"
    2. spotify track/album url
      "<url>"
      e.g. "https://open.spotify.com/track/..."
    3. youtube source + spotify metadata
      "<youtube url>|<spotify url>"
      e.g. "https://youtube.com/watch?v=...|https://open.spotify.com/track/..."
    4. a path
      "<path>"
      e.g. "06 VERTIGO.flac"

argument defaults:
  -f, --ffargs:
    "-hide_banner -loglevel error -c:a aac -c:v libx264 -pix_fmt yuv420p -tune stillimage -vf scale='iw+mod(iw,2):ih+mod(ih,2):flags=neighbor'"
  -o, --out:
    "{artists} - {title}"
  -t, --timestamp-format:
    " ({cs}{cer})"

formatting:
  available placeholders:
    from spotdl:
      {artist}, {artists}, {title}, {album}, {playlist}
    from pymtheg:
      {cs}
        clip end as per [(h*)mm]ss
        e.g. 10648 (1h, 06m, 48s)
      {css}
        clip end in seconds
        e.g. 4008 (1h, 6m, 48s -> 4008s)
      {ce}
        clip end as per [(h*)mm]ss, e.g. 10703 (1h, 07m, 03s)
      {ces}
        clip end in seconds
        e.g. 4023 (1h, 07m, 03s -> 4023s)
      {cer}
        clip end relative to clip start, prefixed with +
        e.g. +15
    
      notes:
        1. pymtheg placeholders can only be used with `-tf, --timestamp-format`
        2. "[(h*)mm]ss": seconds and minutes will always be represented as 2
           digits and will be right adjusted with 0s if needed, unless they are
           the first shown unit where they _may_ have up to two characters.
           hours can be represented by any number of characters.
           e.g. "138:02:09", "1:59:08", "2:05", "6"

examples:
  1. get a song through a spotify link
    pymtheg "https://open.spotify.com/track/..."
  2. get a song through a search query
    pymtheg "thundercat - them changes"
  3. get multiple songs through multiple queries
    pymtheg "https://open.spotify.com/track/..." "<query 2>"
  4. get a random 15s clip of a song
    pymtheg "<query>" -cs "*" -ce "+15" -ud
