Description of your issue, suggested solution and other information
Downloading from a given URL from Germany's SAT.1 video service, youtube-dl terminates after the message "Downloading webpage" without any sign of error - no message, no return code != 0.
It is probably okay not to download a video, because it seems to have expired and is no longer available on the site. The URL is even misleading, and wouldn't be the correct one for the extractor to process. A URL for a formerly accessable episode is actually something like:
http://www.sat1.de/tv/einstein/video/11-staffel-1-episode-1-ballistik-ganze-folge
Yet there needs to be some indication from youtube-dl that nothing was downloaded or an incorrect URL was given (even if the extractor's regular expression matches it) - a warning or error message, a return code.
