From ff815fe65aab83db7e11251db5eafc76504adf05 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Mark Schreiber Date: Thu, 10 Jul 2014 20:11:11 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] Download playlist items in reverse order Series of videos are typically uploaded to YouTube playlists in chronological order. By default, these videos are downloaded latest-to-earliest; this is great for seeing the latest videos in a series, but prevents streaming video in the order that the videos were produced. Add an option to download videos in reverse order, earliest-to-latest.
