In the old version of Lidarr-extended there was an option (videoDownloadTag) to only have videos downloaded from artist with a tag you could set. I don't see that option in the new version anywhere. If this feature has been taken out could it be added back in?

I have tried setting the option but it is just ignored now. It looks like if you are using yt-dl it might work but for Tidal I don't see a way to stop it from downloading every video from every artist.

Looking at the logs it does seem the tag is used for the Youtube downloads but doesn't seem to have any effect on Tidal video downloads.

Its a feature I don't use, so I have no idea if it still works, etc... That is also probably why nothing was done for the new Tidal script. PR welcome to add support and etc....

Ahh, ok. Will take a look. All the code seems to be in Video.service.bash and works fine. I will see if I can make it work in TidalVideoDownloader.bash.
