Proxy Authentication

[nimatrueway]

Hey guys !
This is really one of the most extremely useful and powerful tools I've ever seen, I really appreciate it.

If I knew Python I'd have done it myself but unfortunately I'm a Java programmer. So I wanted to ask whenever it's possible please add a support for "Proxy Authentication" and command-line parameters for entering proxy username/password.

Thanks

You can already do that:

youtube-dl --proxy "http://nimatrueway:secret@proxy-server.example:8000" BaW_jenozKc

Alternatively, set it in your configuration file or via the http_proxy/https_proxy environment variables.
