Is there a way to automatically add YouTube videos to a personal playlist as they are posted?
At night, I like to fall asleep listening to episodes of The Late Show with Craig Ferguson on my smartphone, using the YouTube app that came with my phone (it's a MyTouch 3G Slide).
In order to get it to work, from my computer, I have to transfer each piece of the show (from TVsCraigFerguson) and save it to my own personal playlist. Then, from my phone, I can run the playlist so that it plays each piece of the show, in order, without stopping.
The YouTube app on my phone allows me to see the TVsCraigFerguson channel, as I am subscribed to it, but the clips are listed in reverse order and the next clip does not automatically load. The app also does not let me add a clip from TVsCraigFerguson channel into my personal playlist - I have to do that on an actual computer.
Is there some sort of script or something I can do that will automatically take each clip and put it in my personal playlist as it's posted, so I don't have to go through all these annoying steps?
(Or if there's some easier way that I'm missing that will let me watch all the clips of a show, in order, without having to load each clip by pushing something on the phone?)

Response by poster: I tried that, but it doesn't solve my "auto play" issue, which is the key to this whole thing, for me. Thanks, though :)
