Requires ffmpeg or avconv, however one of these comes pre-installed on most machines. install sync-dl via pypi using pip:

Created to avoid having music deleted but still have the convenience of browsing, adding and reordering new music using remote services such as youtube.

The application does not store any of its metadata in songs, metadata is stored next to them in a .metadata file, the music files are managed through number ing, allowing them to be played alphanumerically using any playback service (such as VLC)

sync-dl [options] COMMAND [options] PLAYLIST

sync-dl has the several subcommands, run sync-dl -h to see them all and sync-dl [COMMAND] -h to get info on a particular one. As an example, here is the new command which creates new playlists from a youtube [URL]:

sync-dl new [URL] [PLAYLIST]

The playlist will be put it in directory [PLAYLIST], which is relative to the current working directory unless you specify your music directory using:

sync-dl config -l [PATH]

Where [PATH] is where you wish to store all your playlists in, ie) ~/Music.

The main feature of sync-dl:

sync-dl sync -s PLAYLIST

Adds new music from remote playlist to local playlist, also takes ordering of remote playlist without deleting songs no longer available in remote playlist.

Songs that are no longer available in remote, will remain after the song they are currently after in the local playlist to maintain playlist flow.

Includes tools managing large playlists, For example:

sync-dl edit --move-range [I1] [I2] [NI] [PLAYLIST]

which allows a user to move a block of songs From [I1] to [I2] to after song [N1].

Moving large blocks of songs on youtube requires dragging each song individually up/down a the page as it trys to dynamically load the hunders of songs you're scrolling past, which you would have to do every time you would want to add new music to somewhere other than the end of the playlist... (ask me how I know :^P)

Casting 2 Con - Francis Ford Coppula Fix

The "well-known" Francis Ford Coppola (as "Coppula") is hired to direct a casting session for young beginners answering a newspaper ad for a new movie. Atmosphere:

The "casting" aspect of the fix is not merely about changing actors, but about refining their performances and the audience's perception of them in the context of the film's thematic depth.

Coppola has openly suggested that the backlash against his casting choices—and the film itself—is a symptom of a cancel culture that stifles artistic freedom. By casting "canceled" actors, he wasn't merely looking for headlines; he was, in his view, liberating the film from the "woke" constraints he sees stifling contemporary American film.

: Halfway through filming, Coppola fired the entire VFX team

Yet the damage was done. In September 2024, Coppola escalated the conflict by filing a $15 million libel lawsuit against Variety , calling the allegations "false and libelous" and accusing the publication of spreading "knowing and reckless falsehoods". Variety stood by its reporting.

Perhaps the most famous production "fix" in Hollywood history occurred deep in the jungles of the Philippines. Coppola originally cast Harvey Keitel as Captain Willard in Apocalypse Now . After viewing the first few days of dailies, Coppola realized Keitel’s intense, street-smart energy didn't fit the passive, observant nature required for the character. In a massive financial gamble, Coppola fired Keitel, halted production, and brought in Martin Sheen—a legendary casting fix that reshaped the entire tone of the cinematic masterpiece. 3. Fighting for Al Pacino and Marlon Brando The "well-known" Francis Ford Coppola (as "Coppula") is

is a 2001 adult-themed parody film directed by Antonio Marcos. The production leans heavily on the name recognition of legendary Hollywood director Francis Ford Coppola, intentionally utilizing the common misspelling "Coppula" to construct a adult film parody around a casting call premise.

When Francis Ford Coppola’s decades-in-the-making passion project, Megalopolis , finally premiered at Cannes in 2024, the world didn’t know whether to applaud or scratch its head. The film—a sprawling Roman epic transposed onto a futuristic New York called “New Rome”—was ambitious, chaotic, and undeniably strange. But perhaps its most talked-about aspect wasn’t the plot or the visual effects. It was the .

This project is not a traditional feature film like his famous works, but rather an erotic-leaning production where he portrays a director holding a casting call for young actresses. Review Summary: "Casting con Francis Ford Coppula" By casting "canceled" actors, he wasn't merely looking

By bringing together such a disparate group, Coppola created a high-stakes, almost experimental, creative environment. The casting wasn't just about headline-grabbing names; it was about creating friction that might translate into the film’s tense political narrative, where a visionary architect (Adam Driver) clashes with a corrupt mayor (Giancarlo Esposito).

While official cast lists are not finalized, early casting calls have been issued through the Calabria Film Commission Megalopolis Updates (2026)
