error in downloading playlist with deleted videos

[whitehat101xx]

Hi youtube-dl developers. Love youtube-dl!
I am however, having difficulty downloading a playlist. I suspect the problem might be that youtube-dl is crashing when it finds a video which has been deleted from the playlist. Take for example a playlist from

https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLwP_SiAcdui0KVebT0mU9Apz359a4ubsC

Thank you.

Works fine for me. Can you include the output you get when you call youtube-dl on that URL with -v?

Hi Philipp:

Hmmm. I was trying to debug it on this end. I'll send you as much info as
I can. May not be today but I'll get around to it. I'm wondering is
there an internal undocumented debug switch I can enable when running this?

I've run a number of things on this end. I've included a log file of the
most recent run. I've run youtube-dl begining from the first video and
excluding all german videos via the following command:

$ youtube-dl --verbose -t --reject-title '(DE)' --playlist-start 1
https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLwP_SiAcdui0KVebT0mU9Apz359a4ubsC |
tee youtube-dl.log

I then tried the download begining with the offending deleted video number
34. Of course I get the
same traceback on the same line 228.

I then attempted to view that video in firefox 18.0.1 with a slew of
addons. I receive the warning
from youtube indicating that the video is no longer available and then I'm
redirected to the next video in the sequence. Hmm. I'm wondering if that
might be the issue?

This is the URL of the playlist.
https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLwP_SiAcdui0KVebT0mU9Apz359a4ubsC

I've attached two files. The first is the log of the full run of
youtube-dl.
The second file of time 1154 is of a number of tests specifiying various
ranges around
the deleted video. Some interesting results were displayed. The numbering
sequence seems to be off. For example Lightning Talks 1 should be video 33.

Hope this helps.

Thank you.
Regards,
Lou

Sorry, although github allows you to reply via email, that doesn't preserve attachments. Can you upload them somewhere?

Hi Philipp:

I've added the two log files to this public folder:
