Dear All,
I'm trying to use the flag --restrict-filenames to download video.
youtube-dl is running under Raspbian.
My commande line is :
youtube-dl -ciw https://www.youtube.com/user/XXXXXXXX -o "/storage/A_DISK/%(uploader)s_%(upload_date)s_%(stitle)s.%(ext)s" --restrict-filenames

always return that --restrict-filenames is not recognize.

Pretty sure someone knows where I m wrong...
Tks in advance.
Christophe;

What is the output of youtube-dl --version? If it's not 2014.10.05 or newer, please consider our FAQ on how to update.

By the way, why are you using --restrict-filenames in the first place? youtube-dl should work perfectly fine without that option.

OK. Sorry I was really believing my version up to date.
Mine is from 2012 02 27...
I 'm using a raspbian wheey and I don't know why the packages are not up to date.
