I suspect that you are using an outdated version of youtube-dl. Can you post the output you get when you add -v to the command line?

[cozgood]

I don't think that's it. I updated from 02-02-2015 when i saw the bug. Currently have youtube-dl @2015.02.06 (net) installed.

[phihag]

Sorry, the information included in the output you get with -v is vital for us to debug issues in general (that's why the note is featured prominently in our contribution notes).

I am not sure why you refuse to share that information, but we cannot in good faith extend support to users who are unwilling to provide us any debugging information.

Therefore, I am closing this issue. Feel free to provide the requested information and we'll reopen it.

That does not show the error. Please post the output you get when you add -v and when the error occurs.

@ebpitts Can you also reproduce the issue with the latest version? See our FAQ if you have trouble updating.

[ebpitts]

Sorry, 2015.02.09.3 and 2015.02.19.3 looked similar at a glance, and I didn't realize I didn't have the latest version.

Good news! I can no longer reproduce the problem.
