Download raw data for videos while others are converting #56

It seems inefficient for my system to be spending so much time and energy converting videos, when it could also be downloading the other videos in the queue in the meantime. I would like all the videos to be downloading while converting happens in the background. If space runs out on the hard drive, then at least all the raw data is downloaded, and then you pop up a message giving me options what to do. Then, I can leave the internet connection and converting can still happen.

Yeah, you download a channel of 260 videos, you don't want to have to wait for each one to convert before the next one is downloaded. You want the whole thing right away, and let it convert over night.

Maybe there could be an option to break it up into steps, instead of auto-converting immediately.
