So I have a batch script that just prompts for the URL by using the 'set' command, setting the URL to %videoURL% so the command that the script ends up calling is:
youtube-dl --cookies ./udemy-cookies.txt -o "%(playlist)s/%(chapter_number)s - %(chapter)s/%(playlist_index)s. %(title)s.%(ext)s" %videoURL%
The problem is that when I paste in the URL when prompted it creates a file named "(chapter_number)s - (playlist_index)s. (ext)s" instead of saving the videos in folders. However, the script works fine if I paste the same command replacing the %videoURL% with the actual URL to the Udemy course.
Any idea why this may be the case?
