Update README.md - add detail about interval arguments #87

My use case is manually dropping urls into channels.txt and having them download immediately.

I fiddled around and realised I can pass any interval argument to sleep, per https://github.com/Jeeaaasus/youtube-dl/blob/master/root/app/youtube-dl/youtube-dl.sh#L55. I set the interval to be very brief so that the URLs get picked up and downloaded straight away, and it seems to work great.

I thought I'd document it in case someone else has the same idea. Thanks for the great util!

It's always nice hear someone getting use out of my work. ❤️ Thank you @cam8001! I've tried to make everything as flexible as possible. Looks good, thanks!

Apologies for the seemingly random comment but after adding a bunch of channels to channels.txt - I have no idea how to kick off a full job to download all of them.

Hi @seantcanavan, either simply wait for the time you have specified as "interval" or restart you container.
