I confirm I have:

  • Verified that I'm running youtube-dl 2018.06.04
  • At least skimmed through the README, most notably the FAQ and BUGS sections
  • Searched the bugtracker for similar issues including closed ones
  • Checked that provided video/audio/playlist URLs (if any) are alive and playable in a browser

What is the purpose of your issue?

  • Bug report (encountered problems with youtube-dl)
  • Site support request (request for adding support for a new site)
  • Feature request (request for a new functionality)
  • Question
  • Other

If the purpose of this issue is a bug report, site support request or you are not completely sure provide the full verbose output:

Description of your issue, suggested solution and other information

A video in question is titled 20180601160701.done_002 on YouTube but youtube-dl downloads the auto subs to 20180601160701.en.vtt instead of 20180601160701.done_002.en.vtt as a user (at least this user) might expect.
