Not sure if this is fixable, but thought I would report as an issue just to be sure.

@davidhq That's a different error (notice the ton of warnings beforehand). You are using an outdated version. See our FAQ for background and how to update.

I deleted my message so it's not distracting.. so yes, I made a mistake of not updating homebrew formulas before upgrading youtube-dl and got a version from may. It works now, thank you....
