VGTV Video

[madorian]

I'm trying to download a video on VGTV, which is listed as a supported site, but I get the following:

youtube-dl --verbose "http://www.vgtv.no/#\!/video/104541/uaktuelt-med-amir-og-odin-episode-4"

Any pointers as to what I can try?

There should be only single backslash before the exclamation sign. Alternatively you can just put the URL into single quotes like this:
youtube-dl 'http://www.vgtv.no/#!/video/104541/uaktuelt-med-amir-og-odin-episode-4'

And by the way, you are using an outdated version of youtube-dl. Refer to our FAQ if you have trouble updating.
