OS X 10.11, latest youtube-dl, this works for me "This should work: http://twitter.com/ErnietheFT/status/657265991135698944/video/1" at least it wasn't some strange porn Ernie_-_Serious_ear_flappage_going_on.mp4 |

Twitter GIFs will be supported in the next version (cf5881f, sorry I mix two irrelevant changes in a single commit). Note that the downloaded file is MP4 even if twitter says it's GIF. |
