In youtube-dl cli, How can i get information about the video (in json output) while the video beign downloaded by the app?
When i use this command:
youtube-dl https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jNQXAC9IVRw
It only shows me output filename, But what a about the duration, resolution, etc... ?
I do this with 2 requests, But is it possible in on go?
It would be great if it dump the video meta data into a json file as well as output filename, Because i also struggling to pragmatically get the path of downloaded file (i have to use regex)
Just add --print-json in your command line.
youtube-dl --print-json https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jNQXAC9IVRw
This outputs a big JSON, while video is still downloading
