Description of your issue, suggested solution and other information

I often try to download Documentations from the Swiss National TV for offline consumptions (as given in the command above).
This used to work nicely, but today I noticed the error given in the title of this issue
The video seems to be downloaded correctly (Liebesnöte in Japan-3074e619-8774-4cf1-bd6d-22ed38320096.mp4 with a size of 1.44 GB), but there's an additional file on my disk which wasn't there with using youtube-dlbefore (Liebesnöte in Japan-3074e619-8774-4cf1-bd6d-22ed38320096.temp.mp4, 601 Bytes).

avconv issue. Update or use ffmpeg.

[habi]

Thanks a lot for the hint, which solved my problem.

For future reference (I'm on OS X, also forgot to mention that), I upgraded avconv with Homebrew by issuing

brew upgrade libav

in the terminal.
Now the error mentioned in this issue is gone.

Upgrade to latest libav and ffmpeg. But still got the same error in my MAC. Fixed it by add:

--prefer-ffmpeg
