ytdown_manual

Download Youtube manually, a temporary workaround before your downloader such as youtube-dl patch if youtube website changed.

Usage:

xb@dnxb:~/note/sh/ytdown_manual$ ytdown 
Usage: ytdown <video url> <audio url> <name> <upload date> <video id>
Tip: 
[1] The video url normally bigger size or itag=243/247, while audio url is smaller size or itag=251. You can quickly recognize the url by checking the filter by Media tab in network inspector,  then sort by file size and right-click to copy the biggest and smallest size url, OR double click the url to see it's video or audio(only first two links works).
[2] You choose highest quality on video settings first, click trash icon to clear inspector log, then get the latest/highest quaility media url by dragging the duration bar.
[3] The order of <video url> and <audio url> not important.
xb@dnxb:~/note/sh/ytdown_manual$ 

Why not just use &range=0- or remove &range= ?:

Download as chunk of segments required to keep the initial fast download speed, or else it probably drop to very slow speed.

Command alias:

You probably want to make it as alias in ~/.bash_aliases, e.g.:

alias ytdown='bash ~/n/sh/ytdown_manual/ytdown.sh'

Demo video (Click image to play at YouTube):
