Describe the feature/enhancement

Would it be possible to implement a custom date-time stamp into the file name when downloading files?
Something like how this tool does it? https://github.com/cnovel/PodcastBulkDownloader
This is due to many of the podcasts I listen to don't have proper file name tagging.

This would be great. As stated above, podcast naming is all over the place even within the same feed.

Being able to prepend a published date to the start of the filename like YYYY-MM-DD - {episode title}.mp3 would be so helpful for large podcast archives and make archives more portable to other players.

Podgrab also implements this, though it's not customizable - just on or off in a format similar to the example above.
