Hello,
I get an error when downloading the following video:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gsn-cMLs1O0

I suspect it being because of the - sign in the video id. Up to this point I haven't had any problems with youtube videos at all.

Here the output when running the yt-dl command in verbose mode:
