Make sure you are using the latest version: run `youtube-dl --version` and ensure your version is 2017.06.25. If it's not read this FAQ entry and update. Issues with outdated version will be rejected.

I've verified and I assure that I'm running youtube-dl 2017.06.25

The following sections concretize particular purposed issues, you can erase any section (the contents between triple ---) not applicable to your issue

If the purpose of this issue is a bug report, site support request or you are not completely sure provide the full verbose output as follows:

Add -v flag to your command line you run youtube-dl with, copy the whole output and insert it here. It should look similar to one below (replace it with your log inserted between triple ```):

Description of your issue, suggested solution and other information

I noticed a few past Regex error bug reports for Mixcloud that have been fixed, and Mixcloud seems to work fine most of the time, but this url is different in that it's geo-restricted for copyright issues. I've tried passing --geo-bypass and --geo-bypass-country etc, all return the same error response included above: RegexNotFoundError('Unable to extract %s' % _name)

Confirm that.

~> youtube-dl --version
2017.08.13

hello-josh · 2017-08-24T11:38:20Z

@for-coursera I can confirm with 2017.8.23

fixed in #14016

for-coursera · 2017-08-27T18:42:29Z

Can confirm, seems like working again. Thanks a lot, @sudovijay!

BTW, further to the comment by @kalitara (which is now deleted, I presume), I can also confirm that it indeed works kinda every other time (these two were started one right after another, for example):
