I'm using youtube-dl version: 2018.01.27
ffmpeg: 3.4.1-1~16.04.york0
os: Ubuntu 16.04.3

when I tried to use --hls-prefer-ffmpeg it exit with error: Unrecognized option 'k'.
Error splitting the argument list: Option not found

somehow the ffmpeg arg on hls still include -k parameter which not supported in newest ffmpeg:
