Description

I’m trying to download a video AND get title information displayed in the console log as well. When invoking

youtube-dl.exe SmanVIJ80EY --no-call-home --newline -x -o "out.$(ext)s" 2>&1

I see a lot of information, but neither of it contains the video title. I also tried -v for extra information, but here too: no video title.

There is a way to obtain that using --get-title, but when supplying that, no actual download takes place. It merely simulates.

To get this information, I then have to call the tool twice, which is a lot slower, since there seems to be a significant startup time.

Is there a way to get the video title in the output in the same pass as downloading it?

@dstftw you already have the option --get-title. The only thing that is missing is to display that in one go. I don’t understand why it would take two runs to get something as trivial as a video title.
