This does not make any sense since final download links may expire by the time you will try download them.

If you want to download with original names use youtube-dl to download or any supported external downloader.

You don't need to extract links, external downloader will be invoked for each link on download.

@jaan143 you don't specify the name of external downloader and it's argument. So base on your syntax, it must be something like this, for example:
youtube-dl --verbose --external-downloader aria2c YOUR-URL
