vidme provides a 3 second clip of a video, which in certain cases is selected as the 'best' format:

$ python -m youtube_dl https://vid.me/TZAW -F -v

[debug] User config: []
[debug] Command-line args: [u'https://vid.me/TZAW', u'-F', u'-v']

[Vidme] TZAW: Downloading JSON metadata
[info] Available formats for TZAW:
format code  extension  resolution note

480p-clip    mp4        236x426    (best)

Perhaps we can weight that format lower or just remove it?
