"None" issue with getbestaudio method

[sincerestsentry]

Hi!

So I'm having this issue with the getbestaudio method: I attempted to use it in a variable as a list with other data:

yt_meta = [video.title, video.duration, video.viewcount, video.getbestaudio

and print it in a GUI window, but each time it printed "none".

I changed a few settings and ended up getting a reference to the function object, but that didn't really fix anything.

Then, I was curious, so I set up the download method as

video.getbestaudio().download(filepath='/Downloads/video.mp3', quiet=False)

and this resulted in the printing of the expected text that's listed in the documentation when download is used, however, beneath it, was "None" and notably, nothing downloaded. I tried this several times with several different videos, and it always resulted in "None" and no download.

It prints:

  5,523,355.0 Bytes [100.00%] received. Rate: [19019 KB/s].  ETA: [0 secs]    
None

And no download.

I presume this is a problem with my code I simply am not seeing, but I wanted to bring it to your attention simply to ensure it was indeed my problem.

my problem is similar. It does download to the current directory, but it doesn't return downloaded filename as None.
