Creating template from title and link to youtube video

Help
1

Hi, Im so sorry to ask for help on this but I have a ton of youtube tutorials that I can never learn from because of the overwhelming amount.
So I want to get them all into Obsidian and see the linking and I think Id get to grips with the knowledge.
So I have a playlist .md file in Obsidian with the title and the youtube link
eg
How To Change Key: 3 Methods from Easy to Hard

Ive used the Note Refactor plugin to create a page after highlighting the title and link & using a hotkey.

What I really need , because I have over 750 videos to do, is to be able to use the & markdown from that single hotkey (or use two or more).

Ideally It’d be like this:
… [page title](youtube URL) - this would create an external link …
…![page title](youtube URL) - this would create an embed of the video …

Very sorry for the long post but if anyone could help Id be very grateful.
thanks in advance
Lee

Have a look at the ReadItLater plugin, I use it to collect youtube links.
Very configurable, so you should be able to make it do what you need.

Thank you so much. That looks like a really useful plugin.
Im afraid I must have worded my original post badly as its the markdown placement of the information ,into a template, that is problematic.
so for instance , I may have the title and the URL of the youtube video and I want some plugin or template to be able to grab that info , create a note and place the title in and URL in ( ).
At the present moment Im doing this by hand and as I have so many to do I was wondering if I was missing a trick that could speed the process up.

Nevertheless, your suggestion is extremely useful for me so I thank you for taking the time to reply.
