i try it the same command on Windows version (latest version) and it work and give good link

for example :

Linux version : " youtube-dl -g -f 140 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AhrYTl740jg "
give link : https://r3---sn-upoxu-25gs.googlevideo.com/videoplayback?id=021ad84e5ef8d238&itag=140&-[...]

Windows Version :" youtube-dl.exe -g -f 140 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AhrYTl740jg "
give link : https://r6---sn-25ge7nse.googlevideo.com/videoplayback?id=021ad84e5ef8d238&itag=140&[...]

seems like soft pick the wrong server, or old server

BUT, this is weird because its only happend on some videos
also passing livestream link into parameter give wrong result link ( if we do -g -f 93 )
like this :

Linux Version : " youtube-dl -g -f 140 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kB4D0A0961E "
give good link : Result

Windows Version : " youtube-dl.exe -g -f 140 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kB4D0A0961E "
Give different link but it works : Result
