Current filename template is insufficient for my use.
I would like to use something like
%(title)s_%(upload_date)s
on The Daily Show and get a filename "thedailyshow_20140401".
At the moment it is "thedailyshow jfbgkv_april-1--2014---michael-lewis part 1_20140401". That is not nice at all. Could you make "thedailyshow" %program and "michael-lewis" as %title? Why is the URL used as the title?

I would like to have pretty filenames. Any way to get there?

python youtube-dl -v -s -o %(title)s_%(upload_date)s http://thedailyshow.cc.com/full-episodes/jfbgkv/april-1--2014---michael-lewis
