What's the proxy software running at 127.0.0.1:8087?
Both DASH manists and the final URL has domain *.googlevideo.com, and I guess your proxy does not allow these URLs.

Maybe same issue like #5118

The proxy is goagent. Today I test it on a Windows 8.1 machine in a different Internet environment with the latest version 2015.07.07.

It does do the download but tried twice to fetch the DASH manifests according to the debug.

@yan12125 I don't think the proxy blocks the requests.

@larsauswsw It's pretty much like it in the link!

[yan12125]

@larsenlouis If you can download via one proxy server while not on another, it's probably the problem of the specific proxy server. Can you reproduce the error now?
And it's normal that youtube-dl downloads multiple DASH manifests due to #6097.

Works fine with latest version (2016.05.16).
