Question

Hello guys. I'm downloading a video with subtitles using following parameters:

youtube-dl -f 137,bestaudio --write-sub --write-auto-sub --all-subs myYTlink

Since I'm downloading video and audio files separately, I've noticed youtube-dl downloads subtitles twice: First time - when download starts; Second time - when video download finishes and audio file download starts

How can I fix this? Any advice is appreciated. I assume there is some syntax solution for this with []^ symbols.

Using --no-overwrites will skip the second download.
