Parfois j'archive des vidéos YouTube. Il arrive qu'elles soient en anglais, mais heureusement avec yt-dlp on peut récupérer un beau mkv avec les sous-titres intégrés :
yt-dlp --write-auto-sub --embed-subs --merge-output-format mkv <URL>
ou
yt-dlp --write-auto-sub --embed-subs --sub-lang "en.*" --merge-output-format mkv <URL>
(retirez --write-auto-sub si vous ne voulez pas des sous-titres auto-généré par YouTube)






To select the video quality, first use the -F option to list the available formats, here’s an example:
youtube-dl -F 'http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P9pzm5b6FFY'

Here’s the output:

[youtube] Setting language

format code extension resolution  note 
140         m4a       audio only  DASH audio , audio@128k (worst)
160         mp4       144p        DASH video , video only
133         mp4       240p        DASH video , video only

18          mp4       640x360     
22          mp4       1280x720    (best)

The best quality is 22 so use -f 22 instead of -F to download the MP4 video with 1280x720 resolution like this:
youtube-dl -f 22 'http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P9pzm5b6FFY'


Youtube has separated the video and audio streams for the lines labeled DASH so we also need to pick the highest quality audio
which in this case is the line starting with 141.
Then we run youtube-dl again this time specifying the audio and video:
youtube-dl -f 137+141 https://www.youtube.com/watch\?v\=-pxRXP3w-sQ
