Description

Attempting to download the video "Sonicsgate" from this youtube URL: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s9Dp20ydm1E (720p version). It plays fine in browsers (but not VLC notably), and youtube-dl fails with the error shown above in the verbose output. Is there anything I can do to make this work? I am new to youtube-dl, but could not find any known limitation that would cause this in the docs.

Thanks!
