Description of your issue, suggested solution and other information
Honestly, I am posting this mainly because I was asked to do this (“WARNING: unable to extract uploader; please report this issue on https://yt-dl.org/bug” – see log from stderr above).
In spite of the warning, all the downloading and merging went flawlessly; I did not encounter any problems, finally.
