So I tried some videos on a PBS website and it said to report the complete output here... so I guess PBS isn't supported at the moment?

Thank you for the report. youtube-dl does support PBS (try youtube-dl --list-extractors | grep -i pbs), but we did not support the viralplayer URL format. This has been fixed in youtube-dl 2014.02.08.1. Type sudo youtube-dl -U to update.
