I looked for workarounds and it seems this is an old issue, solved in 2014. I'm getting it with the latest version: 2015.11.15.

Thanks. I searched for other open issues with "title" but I didn't find anything. Please do what you need to do.

Thanks! Sometime since the time I had the problem an hour and a half ago, 2015.11.18 was available.

I'd like to mention that the message

"WARNING: Your copy of avconv is outdated and unable to properly mux separate video and audio files, youtube-dl will download single file media. Update avconv to version 10-0 or newer to fix this."

that I get every time I run youtube-dl is simply a waste of terminal space. There is no avconv 10-0 or 10.0 or anything like it for linux. I am somewhat aware of the developer war between ffmpeg and avconv but I see no reason for youtube-dl to be involved.

Open a new issue. Keep in mind that it's reported because you have installed an old version of avconv (see the [debug] exe versions line).

I have the latest version of avconv for my OS. What does this "exe" mean....

I'm not opening an issue. It's just an annoyance. Not a bug.
