### Provide a description that is worded well enough to be understood

Would it be possible to add a --popular argument so that it will list all those videos and download them. After some Googling I found that one of the lead dev has given the suggestion in 2 step process: https://www.reddit.com/r/youtubedl/comments/114cdbi/

Thank you.

```
❯ yt-dlp -O "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=%(id)s&list=PU%(channel_id.2:)s" r6sGWTCMz2k
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r6sGWTCMz2k&list=PUYO_jab_esuFRV4b17AJtAw

❯ yt-dlp "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r6sGWTCMz2k&list=PUYO_jab_esuFRV4b17AJtAw" -I:10 -O title=

```

Could you please make this automated?

Or add this some how to documentation.

many thanks

### Provide verbose output that clearly demonstrates the problem

- [X] Run **your** yt-dlp command with **-vU** flag added (`yt-dlp -vU <your command line>`)
- [X] If using API, add `'verbose': True` to `YoutubeDL` params instead
- [X] Copy the WHOLE output (starting with `[debug] Command-line config`) and insert it below
