when trying to get the mp4 link, this command youtube-dl -f 'mp4' -g http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x3k0dtv send a .m3u8 link instead of a mp4
All the formats listed are 'mp4' but only a few of them are really a mp4 file. And I cannot use ffmpeg on my servers.
Impossible to get the mp4 file easily (without parsing the file formats available)

m3u8 provides an mp4 file, so it's working as expected. Use -f '[protocol!=?m3u8]' instead, it won't pick a format that uses m3u8.
