How To Get Section Name In Template Name

[AlBannaTechno]

Hi

• What the problem is

i try to download this series : Film Production

But i can't figure how to get section name in video name template

section name like Writing and Story , Camera and Sound ... i try many things described in readme file but nothing work
In This playlist videos categories on the next sequence

• Writing and Story

  • Screenplays: Crash Course Film Production 1
  • Pitching and Pre-Production: Crash Course Film Production 2

• Camera and Sound

  • The Filmmaker's Army: Crash Course Film Production 3
  • Dissecting The Camera: Crash Course Film Production 4
  • Sound Production: Crash Course Film Production 5

and so on ...
so its just a nested list

so i need to get Writing and Story , Camera and Sound ...
and append it to the name of downloaded file
with file templates like -o %(autonumber)02d.%(title)s.%(ext)s

Or create folders with these names and
download corresponding videos on it
so it will be
./Writing and Story/ Screenplays: Crash Course Film Production 1.mp4

Camera and Sound/The Filmmaker's Army: Crash Course Film Production 3.mp4

• How it could be fixed

I try to modify the source code and change YoutubeDL.py: , Ln:633 : to

 def prepare_filename(self, info_dict):
        """Generate the output filename."""

        print("[OS] info_dict")

        for v in info_dict.keys():
            print ("%s:%s"%(v,info_dict[v]))
            print()
            print()
            print()

then i get all fetched data , but nothing contains sections name eg.Writing and Story

• How your proposed solution would look like
  i don't know source code is little tricky

youtube-dl.exe -v

@dstftw I guess you closed this question because of not providing version so i provide it
So is this feature available in /youtube-dl

[dstftw]

https://github.com/ytdl-org/youtube-dl#is-the-description-of-the-issue-itself-sufficient

[AlBannaTechno]

@dstftw I re populate the question with most required details

[dstftw]

No such info is provided by Youtube.

[AlBannaTechno]

@dstftw Thanks for reply ,
I just have a final/last question i explore the source code and i notice using html parsing operations
so it make this problem not related to youtube it's not youtube API ? am i true ?
it's rely under id="title-container" in div so implement this not related to youtube itself ! that true or i miss-understand how ydl work

[dstftw]

youtube-dl does not use Youtube API due to obvious reasons.

@dstftw So What do you mean by saying No such info is provided by Youtube. ????? we pars the page then get what we want !!

[dstftw]

I mean exactly what it spells. I'm not a black magician to know what you parse.

@dstftw thanks , I am still can't understand what you mean and why this is not possible but i know this problem happend because of shortage of my knowledge so i will study the source code in the next first chance . thanks
