Description of your issue, suggested solution and other information

It doesn't let me download "http-4 1920x1080 (best)" from "http://www.msn.com/en-gb/vide
o/watch/neil-clough-the-apprentice-2013-exit-interview/vp-BBGrMq"
I was able to download "http-3 1280x720", but not 1080p.

Anyone can help with this issue?

Sorry for my english.

[nskzhd]

I just noticed that when I try to download 1080p, youtube-dl gives me the url "~.ism" unlike other resolution. So I was searching how to download files from '.ism' url, and I found out "ismdownloader" reading this post.

And it works!!!

I am just a noob to all the video downloading, so I don't know this could be available with youtube-dl, but really hope it will!
