downloading a youtube-Playlist stops, if one video fails

[casiosmu]

Hi everyone,

1. great tool :-)
2. my issue:
   if i download a playlist from youtube, and one of the videos couldn't be fetched (in my case because of GEMA), then the downloading of the list stops.
   imho it would be better if only the broken video is skipped and it goes ahead to the next video in the list.
   thank you

You can use the --ignore-errors option (or just -i) and it will continue to download the rest of the videos.
Failing by default is useful because you can know if the download has failed by just looking to the return code, for example inside a script, without looking in the output. I'm closing this then.
Thanks for the report.
