Output template is a template for downloaded file. Never hardcode ext for it. |
It would be nice if this would be better explained in the manfile. |

Description
If you run
youtube-dl --extract-audio --audio-format mp3 "https://youtu.be/Sqk3B2041uk" --output test.mp3
id3v2 -t "cooltitle" -a "coolartist" test.mp3
and open the resulting test.mp3 file using rythmbox, rythmbox doesn't know that the titel is "cooltitle" and that the artist is "coolartist".
But if you run
youtube-dl --extract-audio --audio-format mp3 "https://youtu.be/Sqk3B2041uk" --output "test.%(ext)s"
id3v2 -t "cooltitle" -a "coolartist" test.mp3
instead it works.
I think it is very unintuitive that the first version doesn't work. It would be nice if that would change, because I don't want other people to write the first one and then ask themselves for hours why this doesn't work.
