Allow download of videos or audio within a date range #195

Within the GUI I tried to pass --dateafter 20240202 to use the date range function of the yt-dlp to download a youtube playlist. I passed this as an argument in the settings menu, the run before startup argument and also as an argument within the download section. But the GUI this is returning an error yt-dlp.exe: error: no such option: --dateafter 20240202.

I know that yt-dlp supports downloading a playlist within a date range and it works in the commandline without the GUI. May be this isn't implemented within the GUI. If this isn't implemented within the GUI can you please implement it or if this feature is already available within the GUI can you please tell me the format to pass the date range argument for downloading the playlist within a date range

--dateafter and 20240202 are two separate arguments, not a single one.

Oh I see. Thankyou for the quick reply. Now it works.
