|
|

|
|
```terminal
|
|
pytubepp "https://youtube.com/watch?v=2lAe1cqCOXo"
|
|
```
|
|
* To download the video in a specific resolution (suppose 480p) the command will be:
|
|
```terminal
|
|
pytubepp "https://youtube.com/watch?v=2lAe1cqCOXo" -s 480p
|
|
```
|
|
* To download the video with embeded caption (suppose en - English) the command will be:

```terminal
|
|
pytubepp "https://youtube.com/watch?v=2lAe1cqCOXo" -c en
