+defaults to downloading the highest available quality as reported by +YouTube, which will be 1080p or 720p in some cases, so you no longer +need the -b option. +For some specific videos, maybe YouTube does not report them to be +available in a specific high quality format you\[aq]\[aq]re interested +in. +In that case, simply request it with the -f option and youtube-dl will +try to download it. +.SS I get HTTP error 402 when trying to download a video. What\[aq]s +this? +.PP +Apparently YouTube requires you to pass a CAPTCHA test if you download +too much. +We\[aq]\[aq]re considering to provide a way to let you solve the +CAPTCHA (https://github.com/rg3/youtube-dl/issues/154), but at the +moment, your best course of action is pointing a webbrowser to the +youtube URL, solving the CAPTCHA, and restart youtube-dl. +.SS I have downloaded a video but how can I play it? +.PP +Once the video is fully downloaded, use any video player, such as +vlc (http://www.videolan.org) or mplayer (http://www.mplayerhq.hu/). +.SS The links provided by youtube-dl -g are not working anymore +.PP +The URLs youtube-dl outputs require the downloader to have the correct +cookies. +Use the \f[C]--cookies\f[] option to write the required cookies into a +file, and advise your downloader to read cookies from that file. +Some sites also require a common user agent to be used, use +\f[C]--dump-user-agent\f[] to see the one in use by youtube-dl. +.SS ERROR: no fmt_url_map or conn information found in video info +.PP +youtube has switched to a new video info format in July 2011 which is +not supported by old versions of youtube-dl. +You can update youtube-dl with \f[C]sudo\ youtube-dl\ --update\f[]. +.SH COPYRIGHT +.PP +youtube-dl is released into the public domain by the copyright holders. +.PP +This README file was originally written by Daniel Bolton +() and is likewise released into the public +domain. +.SH BUGS +.PP +Bugs and suggestions should be reported at: + +.PP +Please include: +.IP \[bu] 2 +Your exact command line, like +\f[C]youtube-dl\ -t\ "http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uHlDtZ6Oc3s&feature=channel_video_title"\f[]. +A common mistake is not to escape the \f[C]&\f[]. +Putting URLs in quotes should solve this problem. +.IP \[bu] 2 +The output of \f[C]youtube-dl\ --version\f[] +.IP \[bu] 2 +The output of \f[C]python\ --version\f[] +.IP \[bu] 2 +The name and version of your Operating System ("Ubuntu 11.04 x64" or +"Windows 7 x64" is usually enough). diff --cc youtube-dl.bash-completion index 8704d0fd3,000000000..1eca2adf3 mode 100644,000000..100644 --- a/youtube-dl.bash-completion +++ b/youtube-dl.bash-completion @@@ -1,14 -1,0 +1,14 @@@ +__youtube-dl() +{ + local cur prev opts + COMPREPLY=() + cur="${COMP_WORDS[COMP_CWORD]}" - opts="--all-formats --audio-format --audio-quality --auto-number --batch-file --console-title --continue --cookies --dump-user-agent --extract-audio --format --get-description --get-filename --get-format --get-thumbnail --get-title --get-url --help --ignore-errors --keep-video --list-extractors --list-formats --literal --match-title --max-downloads --max-quality --netrc --no-continue --no-mtime --no-overwrites --no-part --no-progress --output --password --playlist-end --playlist-start --prefer-free-formats --quiet --rate-limit --reject-title --retries --simulate --skip-download --srt-lang --title --update --username --verbose --version --write-description --write-info-json --write-srt" ++ opts="--all-formats --audio-format --audio-quality --auto-number --batch-file --console-title --continue --cookies --dump-user-agent --extract-audio --format --get-description --get-filename --get-format --get-thumbnail --get-title --get-url --help --ignore-errors --keep-video --list-extractors --list-formats --literal --match-title --max-downloads --max-quality --netrc --no-continue --no-mtime --no-overwrites --no-part --no-progress --output --password --playlist-end --playlist-start --prefer-free-formats --quiet --rate-limit --reject-title --retries --simulate --skip-download --srt-lang --title --update --user-agent --username --verbose --version --write-description --write-info-json --write-srt" + + if [[ ${cur} == * ]] ; then + COMPREPLY=( $(compgen -W "${opts}" -- ${cur}) ) + return 0 + fi +} + +complete -F __youtube-dl youtube-dl
