Please add this only decent way to bind a specific ip address tou youtube-dl

[vanilla38]

Hi, I use youtube-dl since for more than 2 years now and to avoid 402 error I added a new option to source code (--bind-address) i know that there are a to of ways to force a program to use a specific IP with LD_PRELOAD etc... But this is hacky and i think more and more people need to use IPV6 which is a pain to handle...

I usually use bitbucket repositories with tortoise SVN this is why i cant give you a Pull request, i tried like 3 times to give you the little code to add to implement this new option, this is easy, please add it because atm, I must change my code on each major modification of the program...

Original link with detailed code to bind an IPV4/IPV6 address to the python socket:

see my other issues about this topic.

Thanks in advance.
