+<h2 id="otpl">Output template</h2>
+
+<p>The -o option allows users to indicate a template for the output file names.
+The basic usage is not to set any template arguments when downloading a single
+file, like in <em>youtube-dl -o funny_video.flv 'http://some/video'</em>.
+However, it may contain special sequences that will be replaced when
+downloading each video. The special sequences have the format
+<strong>%(NAME)s</strong>. To clarify, that's a percent symbol followed by a
+name in parenthesis, followed by a lowercase S. Allowed names are:</p>
+
+<ul>
+<li><em>id</em>: The sequence will be replaced by the video identifier.</li>
+<li><em>url</em>: The sequence will be replaced by the video URL.</li>
+<li><em>uploader</em>: The sequence will be replaced by the nickname of the
+person who uploaded the video.</li>
+<li><em>title</em>: The sequence will be replaced by the literal video
+title.</li>
+<li><em>stitle</em>: The sequence will be replaced by a simplified video
+title, restricted to alphanumeric characters and dashes.</li>
+<li><em>ext</em>: The sequence will be replaced by the appropriate
+extension (like <em>flv</em> or <em>mp4</em>).</li>
+</ul>
+
+<p>As you may have guessed, the default template is <em>%(id)s.%(ext)s</em>.
+When some command line options are used, it's replaced by other templates like
+<em>%(title)s-%(id)s.%(ext)s</em>. You can specify your own.</p>
