Error still ongoing, issue really shouldn't be closed without a follow up. It helps to at least ask for more information. |

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Um7pMggPnug (Katy Perry - Chained to the Rhythm)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WS7f5xpGYn8 (Katy Perry - Hey Hey Hey)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MYxAiK6VnXw (OutKast - Ms. Jackson)
Only occurs on Vevo channels as far as my testing shows, and not all Vevo channels and videos are broken, for example Smash Mouth - I'm a Believer (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0mYBSayCsH0) works fine despite another video on their channel being broken.
In addition, the last video listed above (Ms. Jackson) has a different error (ERROR: The uploader has not made this video available in your country.) despite playing fine in my browser. Full debug log for that included above too. Actual error in youtube-dl code is identical as far as I can tell.
From my limited and poorly informed debugging of youtube-dl code, it seems to be an error from YouTube itself, and not one coded into youtube-dl. Hopefully this is enough information to debug.
