If one uses the `--exec` argument, one can access the name of the `.mp4` file via `%(filepath)s` and `%(requested_subtitles.en.filepath)s` will give the filename of the subtitles: ``` yt-dlp -f 160 --write-subs --write-auto-subs --sub-langs en --embed-subs "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EC91ZWUvfEo" --exec "ffmpeg -i '%(filepath)s' -vf \"subtitles='%(requested_subtitles.en.filepath)s' :force_style='MarginV=50'\" video_destination.mp4 " ```
