Hi,

I've ran into this page today, which contains Sky News's live stream:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y60wDzZt8yg

I've tried to download the video using youtube-dl, but I get a 404 error (Not Found).
I wonder if that's a bug, or is it the desired behaviour in such cases (of live-streams)?

Basically, what I would want is to get a direct link to the stream, one which I can use as an input to a media player to watch the video.

Thanks in advance!

Works for me. Could you try the download again with the verbose flag (youtube-dl.exe y60wDzZt8yg -v), and post the output of it here?

I've updated my youtube-dl version and now it works.
Sorry, Thanks!!
