Without the required information, we can't do too much to help you.

Anyways, it works for me with the last version, so I bet you are using an outdated version. If that's the case, you have to update youtube-dl.

As already mentioned by @jaimeMF most likely you are using an outdated version of youtube-dl. Read our FAQ if you have troubles updating.
