+.SS How do I update youtube\-dl?
+.PP
+If you\[aq]ve followed our manual installation
+instructions (http://rg3.github.io/youtube-dl/download.html), you can
+simply run \f[C]youtube\-dl\ \-U\f[] (or, on Linux,
+\f[C]sudo\ youtube\-dl\ \-U\f[]).
+.PP
+If you have used pip, a simple
+\f[C]sudo\ pip\ install\ \-U\ youtube\-dl\f[] is sufficient to update.
+.PP
+If you have installed youtube\-dl using a package manager like
+\f[I]apt\-get\f[] or \f[I]yum\f[], use the standard system update
+mechanism to update.
+Note that distribution packages are often outdated.
+As a rule of thumb, youtube\-dl releases at least once a month, and
+often weekly or even daily.
+Simply go to http://yt\-dl.org/ to find out the current version.
+Unfortunately, there is nothing we youtube\-dl developers can do if your
+distributions serves a really outdated version.
+You can (and should) complain to your distribution in their bugtracker
+or support forum.
+.PP
+As a last resort, you can also uninstall the version installed by your
+package manager and follow our manual installation instructions.
+For that, remove the distribution\[aq]s package, with a line like
+.IP
+.nf
+\f[C]
+sudo\ apt\-get\ remove\ \-y\ youtube\-dl
+\f[]
+.fi
+.PP
+Afterwards, simply follow our manual installation
+instructions (http://rg3.github.io/youtube-dl/download.html):
+.IP
+.nf
+\f[C]
+sudo\ wget\ https://yt\-dl.org/latest/youtube\-dl\ \-O\ /usr/local/bin/youtube\-dl
+sudo\ chmod\ a+x\ /usr/local/bin/youtube\-dl
+hash\ \-r
+\f[]
+.fi
+.PP
+Again, from then on you\[aq]ll be able to update with
+\f[C]sudo\ youtube\-dl\ \-U\f[].
+.SS I\[aq]m getting an error
+\f[C]Unable\ to\ extract\ OpenGraph\ title\f[] on YouTube playlists
+.PP
+YouTube changed their playlist format in March 2014 and later on, so
+you\[aq]ll need at least youtube\-dl 2014.07.25 to download all YouTube
+videos.
+.PP
+If you have installed youtube\-dl with a package manager, pip, setup.py
+or a tarball, please use that to update.
+Note that Ubuntu packages do not seem to get updated anymore.
+Since we are not affiliated with Ubuntu, there is little we can do.
+Feel free to report
+bugs (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/youtube-dl/+filebug) to
+the Ubuntu packaging
+guys (mailto:ubuntu-motu@lists.ubuntu.com?subject=outdated%20version%20of%20youtube-dl)
+\- all they have to do is update the package to a somewhat recent
+version.
+See above for a way to update.
+.SS Do I always have to pass in \f[C]\-\-max\-quality\ FORMAT\f[], or
+\f[C]\-citw\f[]?
+.PP
+By default, youtube\-dl intends to have the best options (incidentally,
+if you have a convincing case that these should be different, please
+file an issue where you explain that (https://yt-dl.org/bug)).
+Therefore, it is unnecessary and sometimes harmful to copy long option
+strings from webpages.
+In particular, \f[C]\-\-max\-quality\f[] \f[I]limits\f[] the video
+quality (so if you want the best quality, do NOT pass it in), and the
+only option out of \f[C]\-citw\f[] that is regularly useful is
+\f[C]\-i\f[].
.SS Can you please put the \-b option back?

+.SH EMBEDDING YOUTUBE\-DL
+.PP
+youtube\-dl makes the best effort to be a good command\-line program,
+and thus should be callable from any programming language.
+If you encounter any problems parsing its output, feel free to create a
+report (https://github.com/rg3/youtube-dl/issues/new).
+.PP
+From a Python program, you can embed youtube\-dl in a more powerful
+fashion, like this:
+.IP
+.nf
+\f[C]
+import\ youtube_dl
+
+ydl_opts\ =\ {}
+with\ youtube_dl.YoutubeDL(ydl_opts)\ as\ ydl:
+\ \ \ \ ydl.download([\[aq]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BaW_jenozKc\[aq]])
+\f[]
+.fi
+.PP
+Most likely, you\[aq]ll want to use various options.
+For a list of what can be done, have a look at
+youtube_dl/YoutubeDL.py (https://github.com/rg3/youtube-dl/blob/master/youtube_dl/YoutubeDL.py#L69).
+For a start, if you want to intercept youtube\-dl\[aq]s output, set a
+\f[C]logger\f[] object.
