11 years ago yes you can by using -g or --get-url as the parameter. For example:
youtube-dl -g www.youtube.com/watch?v=a15KgyXBX24

11 years ago thanks yasoob , it works ! however the url is different from the results from 10youtube.com , i mean even the first part （http://r6---sn-o097zne7.c.youtube.com/ vs http://r6---sn-a5m7znez.c.youtube.com, when i paste the url to browser , one is directly downable , one is for streaming) is different , and there are so many parameters , which parameters are required to download the video ? where can i find the documentation about all the parameters ? i know by extracting the video_info file , i can get the urls , but the url is not downloadable .
Thanks !

11 years ago you can not use it like that. because youtube requires some headers which are not there in the requests you make with your browser so you can only use youtube-dl to download youtube videos because it sets up these headers for you or if you want to reinvent the wheel you can make your own script.

11 years ago The above explanation was according to my knowledge and the difference in the url is there because youtube has different servers for different areas and so these servers have different urls........:) I hope this helps. If you want to discuss further then i ll suggest you to pm me. You can get my email from my github profile.

11 years ago As @yasoob pointed out, youtube uses (its internal) CDN, and the domain name depends on your locale, timing, and youtube's configuration. The URL will be the correct one for whatever arguments (mainly --format) you pass into youtube-dl. The download request must also regularly come from the same IP, and with the same cookie, although youtube sometimes relaxes that requirement - for example, any IPv6 address usually works if the original extraction happened over IPv6.
I'm not sure why you don't let youtube-dl download the video in the first place. Can you elaborate why? In any case, I'm closing this issue for now, but feel free to comment if the current explanations are not sufficient.

10 years ago Hi @phihag : I am a little late to this discussion. I am trying to grab the download url of a video using -g option. Then I want to use third party download accelerators for faster downloading. For example, axel download youtube videos with 3MBps (when given proper download link) while youtube-dl use only <200KBps. So I want to get correct download link from youtube-dl, but as mentioned before, link given by youtube-dl is only for streaming. I can't download it. Is there any option to get the correct download-ready link?

Original youtube link:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=McLq1hEq3UY&list=PL3D9A62846A129C47&index=1
It works with axel.
Axel throws an error: HTTP/1.1 403 Forbidden

10 years ago @abidrahmank The problem seems to be that the url extracted with youtube-dl uses https (other downloaders like curl or aria2c download it fine). You can get http urls using the --prefer-insecure option, but I would personally avoid using it, I would use a downloader that support https urls.

The default switch gives video without audio, to get them together use -f22 LIKE this (this uses the forked project):
yt-dlp -g https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M7Ew_zube4M -f22
which gives:
