Similarly, \u003ccode\u003ebv*.3\u003c/code\u003e will select the 3rd best format that contains a video stream.\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\"\u003eIf you want to download multiple videos, and they don't have the same formats available, you can specify the order of preference using slashes. Note that formats on the left hand side are preferred; e.g. \u003ccode\u003e-f 22/17/18\u003c/code\u003e will download format 22 if it's available, otherwise it will download format 17 if it's available, otherwise it will download format 18 if it's available, otherwise it will complain that no suitable formats are available for download.\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\"\u003eIf you want to download several formats of the same video use a comma as a separator, e.g. \u003ccode\u003e-f 22,17,18\u003c/code\u003e will download all these three formats, of course if they are available.

E.g. \u003ccode\u003e-f bestvideo+best+bestaudio --video-multistreams --audio-multistreams\u003c/code\u003e will download and merge all 3 given formats. The resulting file will have 2 video streams and 2 audio streams.

The order of the formats is therefore important. \u003ccode\u003e-f best+bestaudio --no-audio-multistreams\u003c/code\u003e will download only \u003ccode\u003ebest\u003c/code\u003e while

<li><code>stable</code> is the default channel, and many of its changes have been tested by users of the <code>nightly</code> and <code>master</code> channels.</li> <li>The <code>nightly</code> channel has releases scheduled to build every day around midnight UTC, for a snapshot of the project's new patches and changes. This is the <strong>recommended channel for regular users</strong> of yt-dlp. The <code>nightly</code> releases are available from <a href="https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp-nightly-builds/releases">yt-dlp/yt-dlp-nightly-builds</a> or as development releases of the <code>yt-dlp</code> PyPI package (which can be installed with pip's <code>--pre</code> flag).</li> <li>The <code>master</code> channel features releases that are built after each push to the master branch, and these will have the very latest fixes and additions, but may also be more prone to regressions.

You can achieve this using a <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/tags/.netrc/info" rel="nofollow"><code>.netrc</code> file</a> on a per-extractor basis.

This is done by providing the <code>--netrc-cmd</code> parameter, it shall output the credentials in the netrc format and return <code>0</code> on success, other values will be treated as an error. <code>{}</code> in the command will be replaced by the name of the extractor to make it possible to select the credentials for the right extractor.</p> <p dir="auto">E.g.

The different file types supported are <code>subtitle</code>, <code>thumbnail</code>, <code>description</code>, <code>annotation</code> (deprecated), <code>infojson</code>, <code>link</code>, <code>pl_thumbnail</code>, <code>pl_description</code>, <code>pl_infojson</code>, <code>chapter</code>, <code>pl_video</code>. E.g. <code>-o "%(title)s.%(ext)s" -o "thumbnail:%(title)s\%(title)s.%(ext)s"</code> will put the thumbnails in a folder with the same name as the video. If any of the templates is empty, that type of file will not be written. E.g. <code>--write-thumbnail -o "thumbnail:"</code> will write thumbnails only for playlists and not for video.</p> <p dir="auto"><a id="user-content-outtmpl-postprocess-note"></a></p> <p dir="auto"><strong>Note</strong>: Due to post-processing (i.e. merging etc.), the actual output filename might differ.

If you want to preserve the <code>-f b/bv+ba</code> setting, it is recommended to explicitly specify it in the configuration options.</p> <p dir="auto">The general syntax for format selection is <code>-f FORMAT</code> (or <code>--format FORMAT</code>) where <code>FORMAT</code> is a <em>selector expression</em>, i.e. an expression that describes format or formats you would like to download.</p> <p dir="auto"><strong>tl;dr:</strong> <a href="#format-selection-examples">navigate me to examples</a>.</p> <p dir="auto">The simplest case is requesting a specific format; e.g. with <code>-f 22</code> you can download the format with format code equal to 22. You can get the list of available format codes for particular video using <code>--list-formats</code> or <code>-F</code>. Note that these format codes are extractor specific.</p> <p dir="auto">You can also use a file extension (currently <code>3gp</code>, <code>aac</code>, <code>flv</code>, <code>m4a</code>, <code>mp3</code>, <code>mp4</code>, <code>ogg</code>, <code>wav</code>, <code>webm</code> are supported) to download the best quality format of a particular file extension served as a single file, e.g. <code>-f webm</code> will download the best quality format with the <code>webm</code> extension served as a single file.</p> <p dir="auto">You can use <code>-f -</code> to interactively provide the format selector <em>for each video</em></p> <p dir="auto">You can also use special names to select particular edge case formats:</p> <ul dir="auto"> <li><code>all</code>: Select <strong>all formats</strong> separately</li> <li><code>mergeall</code>: Select and <strong>merge all formats</strong> (Must be used with <code>--audio-multistreams</code>, <code>--video-multistreams</code> or both)</li> <li><code>b*</code>, <code>best*</code>: Select the best quality format that <strong>contains either</strong> a video or an audio or both (i.e.; <code>vcodec!=none or acodec!=none</code>)</li> <li><code>b</code>, <code>best</code>: Select the best quality format that <strong>contains both</strong> video and audio.

Equivalent to <code>worst*[acodec!=none]</code></li> </ul> <p dir="auto">For example, to download the worst quality video-only format you can use <code>-f worstvideo</code>. It is, however, recommended not to use <code>worst</code> and related options. When your format selector is <code>worst</code>, the format which is worst in all respects is selected. Most of the time, what you actually want is the video with the smallest filesize instead. So it is generally better to use <code>-S +size</code> or more rigorously, <code>-S +size,+br,+res,+fps</code> instead of <code>-f worst</code>. See <a href="#sorting-formats">Sorting Formats</a> for more details.</p> <p dir="auto">You can select the n'th best format of a type by using <code>best<type>.<n></code>. For example, <code>best.2</code> will select the 2nd best combined format. Similarly, <code>bv*.3</code> will select the 3rd best format that contains a video stream.</p> <p dir="auto">If you want to download multiple videos, and they don't have the same formats available, you can specify the order of preference using slashes. Note that formats on the left hand side are preferred; e.g. <code>-f 22/17/18</code> will download format 22 if it's available, otherwise it will download format 17 if it's available, otherwise it will download format 18 if it's available, otherwise it will complain that no suitable formats are available for download.</p> <p dir="auto">If you want to download several formats of the same video use a comma as a separator, e.g. <code>-f 22,17,18</code> will download all these three formats, of course if they are available. Or a more sophisticated example combined with the precedence feature: <code>-f 136/137/mp4/bestvideo,140/m4a/bestaudio</code>.</p> <p dir="auto">You can merge the video and audio of multiple formats into a single file using <code>-f <format1>+<format2>+...</code> (requires ffmpeg installed); e.g. <code>-f bestvideo+bestaudio</code> will download the best video-only format, the best audio-only format and mux them together with ffmpeg.</p> <p dir="auto"><strong>Deprecation warning</strong>: Since the <em>below</em> described behavior is complex and counter-intuitive, this will be removed and multistreams will be enabled by default in the future. A new operator will be instead added to limit formats to single audio/video</p> <p dir="auto">Unless <code>--video-multistreams</code> is used, all formats with a video stream except the first one are ignored. Similarly, unless <code>--audio-multistreams</code> is used, all formats with an audio stream except the first one are ignored. E.g. <code>-f bestvideo+best+bestaudio --video-multistreams --audio-multistreams</code> will download and merge all 3 given formats. The resulting file will have 2 video streams and 2 audio streams. But <code>-f bestvideo+best+bestaudio --no-video-multistreams</code> will download and merge only <code>bestvideo</code> and <code>bestaudio</code>. <code>best</code> is ignored since another format containing a video stream (<code>bestvideo</code>) has already been selected. The order of the formats is therefore important. <code>-f best+bestaudio --no-audio-multistreams</code> will download only <code>best</code> while <code>-f bestaudio+best --no-audio-multistreams</code> will ignore <code>best</code> and download only <code>bestaudio</code>.</p> <div class="markdown-heading" dir="auto"><h2 tabindex="-1" class="heading-element" dir="auto">Filtering Formats</h2><a id="user-content-filtering-formats" class="anchor" aria-label="Permalink: Filtering Formats" href="#filtering-formats"><svg class="octicon octicon-link" viewBox="0 0 16 16" version="1.1" width="16" height="16" aria-hidden="true"><path d="m7.775 3.275 1.25-1.25a3.5 3.5 0 1 1 4.95 4.95l-2.5 2.5a3.5 3.5 0 0 1-4.95 0 .751.751 0 0 1 .018-1.042.751.751 0 0 1 1.042-.018 1.998 1.998 0 0 0 2.83 0l2.5-2.5a2.002 2.002 0 0 0-2.83-2.83l-1.25 1.25a.751.751 0 0 1-1.042-.018.751.751 0 0 1-.018-1.042Zm-4.69 9.64a1.998 1.998 0 0 0 2.83 0l1.25-1.25a.751.751 0 0 1 1.042.018.751.751 0 0 1 .018 1.042l-1.25 1.25a3.5 3.5 0 1 1-4.95-4.95l2.5-2.5a3.5 3.5 0 0 1 4.95 0 .751.751 0 0 1-.018 1.042.751.751 0 0 1-1.042.018 1.998 1.998 0 0 0-2.83 0l-2.5 2.5a1.998 1.998 0 0 0 0 2.83Z"></path></svg></a></div> <p dir="auto">You can also filter the video formats by putting a condition in brackets, as in <code>-f "best[height=720]"</code> (or <code>-f "[filesize>10M]"</code> since filters without a selector are interpreted as <code>best</code>).</p> <p dir="auto">The following numeric meta fields can be used with comparisons <code><</code>, <code><=</code>, <code>></code>, <code>>=</code>, <code>=</code> (equals), <code>!=</code> (not equals):</p> <ul dir="auto"> <li><code>filesize</code>: The number of bytes, if known in advance</li> <li><code>filesize_approx</code>: An estimate for the number of bytes</li> <li><code>width</code>: Width of the video, if known</li> <li><code>height</code>: Height of the video, if known</li> <li><code>aspect_ratio</code>: Aspect ratio of the video, if known</li> <li><code>tbr</code>: Average bitrate of audio and video in <a href="##" title="1000 bits/sec">kbps</a></li> <li><code>abr</code>: Average audio bitrate in <a href="##" title="1000 bits/sec">kbps</a></li> <li><code>vbr</code>: Average video bitrate in <a href="##" title="1000 bits/sec">kbps</a></li> <li><code>asr</code>: Audio sampling rate in Hertz</li> <li><code>fps</code>: Frame rate</li> <li><code>audio_channels</code>: The number of audio channels</li> <li><code>stretched_ratio</code>: <code>width:height</code> of the video's pixels, if not square</li> </ul> <p dir="auto">Also filtering work for comparisons <code>=</code> (equals), <code>^=</code> (starts with), <code>$=</code> (ends with), <code>*=</code> (contains), <code>~=</code> (matches regex) and following string meta fields:</p> <ul dir="auto"> <li><code>url</code>: Video URL</li> <li><code>ext</code>: File extension</li> <li><code>acodec</code>: Name of the audio codec in use</li> <li><code>vcodec</code>: Name of the video codec in use</li> <li><code>container</code>: Name of the container format</li> <li><code>protocol</code>: The protocol that will be used for the actual download, lower-case (<code>http</code>, <code>https</code>, <code>rtsp</code>, <code>rtmp</code>, <code>rtmpe</code>, <code>mms</code>, <code>f4m</code>, <code>ism</code>, <code>http_dash_segments</code>, <code>m3u8</code>, or <code>m3u8_native</code>)</li> <li><code>language</code>: Language code</li> <li><code>dynamic_range</code>: The dynamic range of the video</li> <li><code>format_id</code>: A short description of the format</li> <li><code>format</code>: A human-readable description of the format</li> <li><code>format_note</code>: Additional info about the format</li> <li><code>resolution</code>: Textual description of width and height</li> </ul> <p dir="auto">Any string comparison may be prefixed with negation <code>!</code> in order to produce an opposite comparison, e.g. <code>!*=</code> (does not contain).

<code>--parse-metadata</code> and <code>--replace-in-metadata</code></p> <p dir="auto"><code>--replace-in-metadata FIELDS REGEX REPLACE</code> is used to replace text in any metadata field using <a href="https://docs.python.org/3/library/re.html#regular-expression-syntax" rel="nofollow">Python regular expression</a>. <a href="https://docs.python.org/3/library/re.html?highlight=backreferences#re.sub" rel="nofollow">Backreferences</a> can be used in the replace string for advanced use.</p> <p dir="auto">The general syntax of <code>--parse-metadata FROM:TO</code> is to give the name of a field or an <a href="#output-template">output template</a> to extract data from, and the format to interpret it as, separated by a colon <code>:</code>. Either a <a href="https://docs.python.org/3/library/re.html#regular-expression-syntax" rel="nofollow">Python regular expression</a> with named capture groups, a single field name, or a similar syntax to the <a href="#output-template">output template</a> (only <code>%(field)s</code> formatting is supported) can be used for <code>TO</code>. The option can be used multiple times to parse and modify various fields.</p> <p dir="auto">Note that these options preserve their relative order, allowing replacements to be made in parsed fields and vice versa. Also, any field thus created can be used in the <a href="#output-template">output template</a> and will also affect the media file's metadata added when using <code>--embed-metadata</code>.</p> <p dir="auto">This option also has a few special uses:</p> <ul dir="auto"> <li> <p dir="auto">You can download an additional URL based on the metadata of the currently downloaded video. To do this, set the field <code>additional_urls</code> to the URL that you want to download. E.g. <code>--parse-metadata "description:(?P<additional_urls>https?://www\.vimeo\.com/\d+)"</code> will download the first vimeo video found in the description</p> </li> <li> <p dir="auto">You can use this to change the metadata that is embedded in the media file. To do this, set the value of the corresponding field with a <code>meta_</code> prefix. For example, any value you set to <code>meta_description</code> field will be added to the <code>description</code> field in the file - you can use this to set a different "description" and "synopsis". To modify the metadata of individual streams, use the <code>meta<n>_</code> prefix (e.g. <code>meta1_language</code>). Any value set to the <code>meta_</code> field will overwrite all default values.</p> </li> </ul> <p dir="auto"><strong>Note</strong>: Metadata modification happens before format selection, post-extraction and other post-processing operations. Some fields may be added or changed during these steps, overriding your changes.</p> <p dir="auto">For reference, these are the fields yt-dlp adds by default to the file metadata:</p> <markdown-accessiblity-table><table> <thead> <tr> <th align="left">Metadata fields</th> <th align="left">From</th> </tr> </thead> <tbody> <tr> <td align="left"><code>title</code></td> <td align="left"><code>track</code> or <code>title</code></td> </tr> <tr> <td align="left"><code>date</code></td> <td align="left"><code>upload_date</code></td> </tr> <tr> <td align="left"><code>description</code>, <code>synopsis</code></td> <td align="left"><code>description</code></td> </tr> <tr> <td align="left"><code>purl</code>, <code>comment</code></td> <td align="left"><code>webpage_url</code></td> </tr> <tr> <td align="left"><code>track</code></td> <td align="left"><code>track_number</code></td> </tr> <tr> <td align="left"><code>artist</code></td> <td align="left"><code>artist</code>, <code>artists</code>, <code>creator</code>, <code>creators</code>, <code>uploader</code> or <code>uploader_id</code></td> </tr> <tr> <td align="left"><code>composer</code></td> <td align="left"><code>composer</code> or <code>composers</code></td> </tr> <tr> <td align="left"><code>genre</code></td> <td align="left"><code>genre</code> or <code>genres</code></td> </tr> <tr> <td align="left"><code>album</code></td> <td align="left"><code>album</code></td> </tr> <tr> <td align="left"><code>album_artist</code></td> <td align="left"><code>album_artist</code> or <code>album_artists</code></td> </tr> <tr> <td align="left"><code>disc</code></td> <td align="left"><code>disc_number</code></td> </tr> <tr> <td align="left"><code>show</code></td> <td align="left"><code>series</code></td> </tr> <tr> <td align="left"><code>season_number</code></td> <td align="left"><code>season_number</code></td> </tr> <tr> <td align="left"><code>episode_id</code></td> <td align="left"><code>episode</code> or <code>episode_id</code></td> </tr> <tr> <td align="left"><code>episode_sort</code></td> <td align="left"><code>episode_number</code></td> </tr> <tr> <td align="left"><code>language</code> of each stream</td> <td align="left">the format's <code>language</code></td> </tr> </tbody> </table></markdown-accessiblity-table> <p dir="auto"><strong>Note</strong>: The file format may not support some of these fields</p> <div class="markdown-heading" dir="auto"><h2 tabindex="-1" class="heading-element" dir="auto">Modifying metadata examples</h2><a id="user-content-modifying-metadata-examples" class="anchor" aria-label="Permalink: Modifying metadata examples" href="#modifying-metadata-examples"><svg class="octicon octicon-link" viewBox="0 0 16 16" version="1.1" width="16" height="16" aria-hidden="true"><path d="m7.775 3.275 1.25-1.25a3.5 3.5 0 1 1 4.95 4.95l-2.5 2.5a3.5 3.5 0 0 1-4.95 0 .751.751 0 0 1 .018-1.042.751.751 0 0 1 1.042-.018 1.998 1.998 0 0 0 2.83 0l2.5-2.5a2.002 2.002 0 0 0-2.83-2.83l-1.25 1.25a.751.751 0 0 1-1.042-.018.751.751 0 0 1-.018-1.042Zm-4.69 9.64a1.998 1.998 0 0 0 2.83 0l1.25-1.25a.751.751 0 0 1 1.042.018.751.751 0 0 1 .018 1.042l-1.25 1.25a3.5 3.5 0 1 1-4.95-4.95l2.5-2.5a3.5 3.5 0 0 1 4.95 0 .751.751 0 0 1-.018 1.042.751.751 0 0 1-1.042.018 1.998 1.998 0 0 0-2.83 0l-2.5 2.5a1.998 1.998 0 0 0 0 2.83Z"></path></svg></a></div> <div class="highlight highlight-source-shell notranslate position-relative overflow-auto" dir="auto" data-snippet-clipboard-copy-content="# Interpret the title as "Artist -

The currently available clients are <code>web</code>, <code>web_safari</code>, <code>web_embedded</code>, <code>web_music</code>, <code>web_creator</code>, <code>mweb</code>, <code>ios</code>, <code>android</code>, <code>android_vr</code>, <code>tv</code> and <code>tv_embedded</code>. By default, <code>tv,ios,web</code> is used, or <code>tv,web</code> is used when authenticating with cookies. The <code>web_music</code> client is added for <code>music.youtube.com</code> URLs when logged-in cookies are used. The <code>tv_embedded</code> and <code>web_creator</code> clients are added for age-restricted videos if account age-verification is required. Some clients, such as <code>web</code> and <code>web_music</code>, require a <code>po_token</code> for their formats to be downloadable. Some clients, such as <code>web_creator</code>, will only work with authentication. Not all clients support authentication via cookies. You can use <code>default</code> for the default clients, or you can use <code>all</code> for all clients (not recommended). You can prefix a client with <code>-</code> to exclude it, e.g. <code>youtube:player_client=default,-ios</code></li> <li><code>player_skip</code>: Skip some network requests that are generally needed for robust extraction. One or more of <code>configs</code> (skip client configs), <code>webpage</code> (skip initial webpage), <code>js</code> (skip js player). While these options can help reduce the number of requests needed or avoid some rate-limiting, they could cause some issues.

This may be needed if you are using an account with <code>youtube:player_skip=webpage,configs</code> or <code>youtubetab:skip=webpage</code></li> <li><code>visitor_data</code>: Overrides the Visitor Data used in Innertube API requests. This should be used with <code>player_skip=webpage,configs</code> and without cookies. Note: this may have adverse effects if used improperly. If a session from a browser is wanted, you should pass cookies instead (which contain the Visitor ID)</li> <li><code>po_token</code>: Proof of Origin (PO) Token(s) to use. Comma seperated list of PO Tokens in the format <code>CLIENT.CONTEXT+PO_TOKEN</code>, e.g. <code>youtube:po_token=web.gvs+XXX,web.player=XXX,web_safari.gvs+YYY</code>. Context can be either <code>gvs</code> (Google Video Server URLs) or <code>player</code> (Innertube player request)</li> <li><code>player_js_variant</code>: The player javascript variant to use for signature and nsig deciphering. The known variants are: <code>main</code>, <code>tce</code>, <code>tv</code>, <code>tv_es6</code>, <code>phone</code>, <code>tablet</code>. Only <code>main</code> is recommended as a possible workaround; the others are for debugging purposes.

You can use the <code>--format-sort</code> option to change this to any order you prefer, or use <code>--compat-options format-sort</code> to use youtube-dl's sorting order. Older versions of yt-dlp preferred VP9 due to its broader compatibility; you can use <code>--compat-options prefer-vp9-sort</code> to revert to that format sorting preference. These two compat options cannot be used together</li> <li>The default format selector is <code>bv*+ba/b</code>. This means that if a combined video + audio format that is better than the best video-only format is found, the former will be preferred. Use <code>-f bv+ba/b</code> or <code>--compat-options format-spec</code> to revert this</li> <li>Unlike youtube-dlc, yt-dlp does not allow merging multiple audio/video streams into one file by default (since this conflicts with the use of <code>-f bv*+ba</code>). If needed, this feature must be enabled using <code>--audio-multistreams</code> and <code>--video-multistreams</code>. You can also use <code>--compat-options multistreams</code> to enable both</li> <li><code>--no-abort-on-error</code> is enabled by default. Use <code>--abort-on-error</code> or <code>--compat-options abort-on-error</code> to abort on errors instead</li> <li>When writing metadata files such as thumbnails, description or infojson, the same information (if available) is also written for playlists. Use <code>--no-write-playlist-metafiles</code> or <code>--compat-options no-playlist-metafiles</code> to not write these files</li> <li><code>--add-metadata</code> attaches the <code>infojson</code> to <code>mkv</code> files in addition to writing the metadata when used with <code>--write-info-json</code>. Use <code>--no-embed-info-json</code> or <code>--compat-options no-attach-info-json</code> to revert this</li> <li>Some metadata are embedded into different fields when using <code>--add-metadata</code> as compared to youtube-dl. Most notably, <code>comment</code> field contains the <code>webpage_url</code> and <code>synopsis</code> contains the <code>description</code>. You can <a href="#modifying-metadata">use <code>--parse-metadata</code></a> to modify this to your liking or use <code>--compat-options embed-metadata</code> to revert this</li> <li><code>playlist_index</code> behaves differently when used with options like <code>--playlist-reverse</code> and <code>--playlist-items</code>. See <a href="https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp/issues/302" data-hovercard-type="pull_request" data-hovercard-url="/yt-dlp/yt-dlp/pull/302/hovercard">#302</a> for details. You can use <code>--compat-options playlist-index</code> if you want to keep the earlier behavior</li> <li>The output of <code>-F</code> is listed in a new format. Use <code>--compat-options list-formats</code> to revert this</li> <li>Live chats (if available) are considered as subtitles. Use <code>--sub-langs all,-live_chat</code> to download all subtitles except live chat. You can also use <code>--compat-options no-live-chat</code> to prevent any live chat/danmaku from downloading</li> <li>YouTube channel URLs download all uploads of the channel. To download only the videos in a specific tab, pass the tab's URL. If the channel does not show the requested tab, an error will be raised. Also, <code>/live</code> URLs raise an error if there are no live videos instead of silently downloading the entire channel. You may use <code>--compat-options no-youtube-channel-redirect</code> to revert all these redirections</li> <li>Unavailable videos are also listed for YouTube playlists. Use <code>--compat-options no-youtube-unavailable-videos</code> to remove this</li> <li>The upload dates extracted from YouTube are in UTC.</li> <li>If <code>ffmpeg</code> is used as the downloader, the downloading and merging of formats happen in a single step when possible. Use <code>--compat-options no-direct-merge</code> to revert this</li> <li>Thumbnail embedding in <code>mp4</code> is done with mutagen if possible. Use <code>--compat-options embed-thumbnail-atomicparsley</code> to force the use of AtomicParsley instead</li> <li>Some internal metadata such as filenames are removed by default from the infojson. Use <code>--no-clean-infojson</code> or <code>--compat-options no-clean-infojson</code> to revert this</li> <li>When <code>--embed-subs</code> and <code>--write-subs</code> are used together, the subtitles are written to disk and also embedded in the media file. You can use just <code>--embed-subs</code> to embed the subs and automatically delete the separate file. See <a href="https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp/issues/630#issuecomment-893659460" data-hovercard-type="issue" data-hovercard-url="/yt-dlp/yt-dlp/issues/630/hovercard">#630 (comment)</a> for more info. <code>--compat-options no-keep-subs</code> can be used to revert this</li> <li><code>certifi</code> will be used for SSL root certificates, if installed. If you want to use system certificates (e.g. self-signed), use <code>--compat-options no-certifi</code></li> <li>yt-dlp's sanitization of invalid characters in filenames is different/smarter than in youtube-dl. You can use <code>--compat-options filename-sanitization</code> to revert to youtube-dl's behavior</li> <li><del>yt-dlp tries to parse the external downloader outputs into the standard progress output if possible (Currently implemented: <a href="https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp/issues/5931" data-hovercard-type="issue" data-hovercard-url="/yt-dlp/yt-dlp/issues/5931/hovercard">aria2c</a>). You can use <code>--compat-options no-external-downloader-progress</code> to get the downloader output as-is</del></li> <li>yt-dlp versions between 2021.09.01 and 2023.01.02 applies <code>--match-filters</code> to nested playlists. This was an unintentional side-effect of <a href="https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp/commit/8f18aca8717bb0dd49054555af8d386e5eda3a88">8f18ac</a> and is fixed in <a href="https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp/commit/d7b460d0e5fc710950582baed2e3fc616ed98a80">d7b460</a>. Use <code>--compat-options playlist-match-filter</code> to revert this</li> <li>yt-dlp versions between 2021.11.10 and 2023.06.21 estimated <code>filesize_approx</code> values for fragmented/manifest formats. This was added for convenience in <a href="https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp/commit/f2fe69c7b0d208bdb1f6292b4ae92bc1e1a7444a">f2fe69</a>, but was reverted in <a href="https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp/commit/0dff8e4d1e6e9fb938f4256ea9af7d81f42fd54f">0dff8e</a> due to the potentially extreme inaccuracy of the estimated values. Use <code>--compat-options manifest-filesize-approx</code> to keep extracting the estimated values</li> <li>yt-dlp uses modern http client backends such as <code>requests</code>. Use <code>--compat-options prefer-legacy-http-handler</code> to prefer the legacy http handler (<code>urllib</code>) to be used for standard http requests.</li> <li>The sub-modules <code>swfinterp</code>, <code>casefold</code> are removed.</li> <li>Passing <code>--simulate</code> (or calling <code>extract_info</code> with <code>download=False</code>) no longer alters the default format selection.
