The video you linked needs a password. Do you mind giving a video link along with its password?

[privong]

@misterhat Interesting. It didn't need one when I first loaded the page in Google Chrome and tried to download it with youtube-dl. Unfortunately I do not have a password for it.

Here's an alternate URL for the site, which appears to be password free: http://www.pinkbike.com/video/408457/

It should work with the changes in #5807.

Reopening. Password protected videos are not supported yet.

If somebody can find me a password protected link with the password I'd be willing to implement it.
