I am downloading my complete chan from a root server ~900 Vids
Would it be possible to add a switch thats makes it possible to download more than one video at a time ?

Regards Chris

You can already do that: Just call youtube-dl with the channel name, like

$ youtube-dl http://www.youtube.com/user/scheffmusic

Alternatively, call youtube-dl with as many arguments as you want, as in

$ youtube-dl uHlDtZ6Oc3s http://www.myvideo.de/watch/8259114/youtube_dl_testvid_ae_m

There is a pull request to just do that, see #129. However, the code needs some cleanup. Follow that issue (there's a link at the very bottom) to get status reports on parallel downloading progress.
