Here's a issue with Youtube-videos. This command
Youtube-dl -F https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lciCUTNuEt4

gives me as below:

If I want to get 1080p version of this videos I need to call:
(download with Youtube-dl itself):

youtube-dl -f 137+140 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lciCUTNuEt4

But it's unfortunate that it can't give the single download link of the videos. If I execute the below command to get the link,
youtube-dl -f 137+140 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lciCUTNuEt4 -g

It gives me two links, one for format 137 and the second one for format 140. as below:

But with Firefox and IDM I can get the single link of 1080p version of the videos easily.

Is there any provision to get single download link of all possible combined format using "YOUTUBE-DL"?

You can't. Neither with Firefox nor with IDM or anything else. There is technically no 1080p single file media hosted on youtube. Max quality single file media is -f 22 that is 720p.
