I am trying to back up a YouTuber and it worked for awhile, but it appears to have stopped working recently. I'm using 2015.11.10 on arch linux. I'm attaching the dumped pages and my current WIP download container. I had to rename them .txt.

The command I'm using is:

youtube-dl -f bestvideo+bestaudio --download-archive ~/sandbox/raocowDownloaded.txt -o "%(title)s-%(id)s.%(ext)s" --write-description --write-info-json --exec 'mv {} ~/amazon/raocow/; mv ~/butts/* ~/amazon/raocow' http://youtube.com/raocow;

And this results in the error:

[debug] System config: []
