@norkunas What php version do you use? I use 'restrict-filenames', it's not perfect but still it's a solution. Thanks!

@Ratnote is this bug applies only for some of urls or for all?

[efka-9]

@norkunas Good question. I think it only appears when filename contains special characters (ė, š, "). Try this one - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gwlLHYBXszU.

@Ratnote ok, i can reproduce it. Also what OS do you use?

@norkunas My virtual machine runs on Ubuntu 16.04. It may help - https://laravel.com/docs/5.3/homestead

Ok, so I've tested with php 7.0 and php 7.1RC1 so it seems that this is an php bug because in later version it works fine for me.
I've tried to use setlocale(LC_ALL, "en_US.UTF-8"), played with utf8 encoding/decoding but none of these worked for me..

Currently I'm using 7.0.9. Glad you resolved that with this option, missed it somehow 👍

Hi. Is it possible to save file with special chars like "ś", "ą"? Now when I'm trying file is saving without that chars. If I run \ youtube-dl --extract-audio --audio-format=mp3 uri \ straight from terminal I'm getting file with this chars but If I'll post URI by your class I don't get this chars.
Regards

@mtrebles it should work since php >7.1

[mtrebles]

@norkunas So I've updated php to 7.1.2. File is still saving without special characters. Additionally If downloaded file contains special chars like "ą", "ś", "ć" etc. $video['_filename'] output is empty. (In PHP 5.6 $video['_filename'] was only without special chars)

[mtrebles]

@norkunas My mistake. In PHP 5.6 output was also empty (but sometimes was only without special chars). I don't know why this happend.

Can you give me url you test?
