FYI: you need to include %(format_id)s in output templates to make --all-formats work |

Thanks! I can get the mediocre "h3 mp4 960x540" video now:
However I still couldn't download the "best" format video. |
|
Youku got a new mtop API. youku.py should be updated. |
|
Maybe this issue should be closed. |
|
Now only format h5 reports wrong resolution and the highest reported resolution (720p) is available, so closing. |

I am trying to download this 2016 National Senior Pom Routine video, but it always gives me the worst quality video. So I used -F option to list all versions available:
[info] Available formats for XMzA1NjAyNzYxNg:
format code extension resolution note
0 mp4 640x360 14.03MiB
h3 mp4 960x540 33.26MiB
2 mp4 1280x720 62.70MiB (best)
Looks good right? Well it still won't download the "best" version even when I use -f on it. So I finally tried --all-formats, the result was pasted above. It downloaded only one version (seemingly trice in console output but on my disk there is only one video file).
For me, the same issues happens with all the other videos on youku.com too. Hope it reproduces for you guys.
Thanks!
