As documented in the FAQ, this error occurred after youtube switched up its interface, and has been fixed shortly thereafter in youtube-dl. Update youtube-dl with youtube-dl -U (depending on your installation, you may need root privileges for that).

If the problem persists, please post the output of youtube-dl --version and reopen this bug (or open a new one).
