Description of your issue, suggested solution and other information

I am trying to download multiple channels from youtube with the channel id in the filename by using the uploader_id in the name. However some channels have nicknames and it is defaulting to that. Is there a way to force the UCxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx format in the name. I have googled and looked over the documentation and cannot find anything.
