If the ID should contain other chars than numbers, put it in quotes like **-f '251-drc'**.

To download a viedeo stream and an audio stream and have it merged into a container format, you can use "**+**", as in **-f '315+251-drc'**. To merge the two streams, use **--merge-output-format** (as of 2024-05 currently supported formats: avi, flv, mkv, mov, mp4, webm).

Example:
<sxh bash; gutter: false>
yt-dlp -f '315+251-drc' --merge-output-format mp4 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jABYosi7J14
</sxh>
