Sorry about that.

Description

I just tried to list the UKF Dubstep channel.

I started youtube-dl with these parameters:

./youtube-dl https://www.youtube.com/user/UKFDubstep -i --get-id --get-title --get-duration

Several minutes into the listing, youtube-dl errored with the UMG block error, even though I explicitly passed -i to ignore errors (I've also tried passing the full-form --ignore-errors). I tried this 4 times and it happened every time.

As you can see from the log, permission to read or write files is disabled, however youtube-dl worked for listing other channels and playlists, such as Monstercat: Uncaged.

How can I skip the UMG blocked video, and just keep listing the available videos? It seems that the option for this is -i, however it's obviously not ignoring the errors.

Nevermind, it seems this has something to do with the particular environment, as it seems to work on a different device. I'll investigate further and inform if I find a bug.
