Lot of the file names have things like "official video", "lyric video" etc. Need to clean them up &rename them

Can I have more context on this?

@belfazt Currently after youtube-dl downloads the file, the filename will mirror what's on the YouTube title. For ex, if Spotify playlist has "The Spoons - Inside out" as the song, then when spotify-dl searches for this song, it'll fetch https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IoBJ0CfdSZQ which has the title as "SPOON "Inside Out" official video" and this will be reflected in the filename as well.

This idea is that words like "official video", "lyrics" etc etc are cleaned out from the filename

Hey, MusicRepair is something that could be helpful here. It adds metadata and improves the file names and fetches the metadata from Spotify. It even adds the lyrics.

@lakshaykalbhor hey thanks mentioning MusicRepair. I'll take a look at integrating it.

We can probably just use the original artist/track info that we got from spotify to rename the files instead of what youtube-dl picks from video name. Would that be good enough so I can add that? Or do you want to explore MusicRepair?
