Hi,

I am trying to use yt-dlp to convert YouTube video to mp3.

I installed the latest version of yt-dlp using the info below.

sudo wget 
https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp/releases/latest/download/yt-dlp -O 
/usr/local/bin/yt-dlp

sudo chmod a+rx /usr/local/bin/yt-dlp

update command
yt-dlp -U

When I use the below command, I get nothing but a greater than sign.

yt-dlp -f 'ba' -x --audio-format mp3 
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dQw4w9WgXcQ -o '%(id)s.mp3


Thanks,

Rob
