But you still need to run youtube-dl. So, I do not see the > upside. Scratch "uselessly" and you will get it right: -J gives you everything you may need to download the video correctly. -g only gives you one piece of information, which is sometimes sufficient (but not not enough that you do not feel the need to call a second time for -e) but only for a few sites. So here is the upside of -J: it works. Second upside: it works with a single call. Third upside: since the information is completely self-contained, you can pass it around easily. People here whine about "ffmpeg -f youtubedl", and they have valid arguments. This: youtube-dl -J $url | ffmpeg -f youtubedl -i - is just as easy, and nobody will whine. Regards, -- Nicolas George
