class YoutubeDL:
    """YoutubeDL class.

    YoutubeDL objects are the ones responsible of downloading the
    actual video file and writing it to disk if the user has requested
    it, among some other tasks. In most cases there should be one per
    program. As, given a video URL, the downloader doesn't know how to
    extract all the needed information, task that InfoExtractors do, it
    has to pass the URL to one of them.

    For this, YoutubeDL objects have a method that allows
    InfoExtractors to be registered in a given order. When it is passed
    a URL, the YoutubeDL object handles it to the first InfoExtractor it
    finds that reports being able to handle it. The InfoExtractor extracts
    all the information about the video or videos the URL refers to, and
    YoutubeDL process the extracted information, possibly using a File
    Downloader to download the video.

    YoutubeDL objects accept a lot of parameters. In order not to saturate
    the object constructor with arguments, it receives a dictionary of
    options instead. These options are available through the params
    attribute for the InfoExtractors to use. The YoutubeDL also
    registers itself as the downloader in charge for the InfoExtractors
    that are added to it, so this is a "mutual registration".

    Available options:

    username:          Username for authentication purposes.
    password:          Password for authentication purposes.
    videopassword:     Password for accessing a video.

                       items in utils.POSTPROCESS_WHEN.

    sleep_interval_subtitles: Number of seconds to sleep before each subtitle download
    listformats:       Print an overview of available video formats and exit.

    match_filter:      A function that gets called for every video with the signature
                       (info_dict, *, incomplete: bool) -> Optional[str]
                       For backward compatibility with youtube-dl, the signature
                       (info_dict) -> Optional[str] is also allowed.
                       - If it returns a message, the video is ignored.
                       - If it returns None, the video is downloaded.
                       - If it returns utils.NO_DEFAULT, the user is interactively
                         asked whether to download the video.
                       - Raise utils.DownloadCancelled(msg) to abort remaining
                         downloads when a video is rejected.
                       match_filter_func in utils.py is one example for this.
    color:             A Dictionary with output stream names as keys
                       and their respective color policy as values.
                       Can also just be a single color policy,
                       in which case it applies to all outputs.
                       Valid stream names are 'stdout' and 'stderr'.
                       Valid color policies are one of 'always', 'auto', 'no_color' or 'never'.
    geo_bypass:        Bypass geographic restriction via faking X-Forwarded-For

                       The template is mapped on a dictionary with keys 'progress' and 'info'
    retry_sleep_functions: Dictionary of functions that takes the number of attempts
                       as argument and returns the time to sleep in seconds.
                       Allowed keys are 'http', 'fragment', 'file_access'
    download_ranges:   A callback function that gets called for every video with
                       the signature (info_dict, ydl) -> Iterable[Section].
                       Only the returned sections will be downloaded.
                       Each Section is a dict with the following keys:
                       * start_time: Start time of the section in seconds
                       * end_time: End time of the section in seconds

                       to the binary or its containing directory.
    postprocessor_args: A dictionary of postprocessor/executable keys (in lower case)
                       and a list of additional command-line arguments for the
                       postprocessor/executable. The dict can also have "PP+EXE" keys
                       which are used when the given exe is used by the given PP.
                       Use 'default' as the name for arguments to passed to all PP
                       For compatibility with youtube-dl, a single list of args
                       can also be used
