[przemyslawpluta]

Is there a way to download live stream? At the moment youtube-dl -v https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y60wDzZt8yg fails ...

• I've verified and I assure that I'm running youtube-dl 2016.05.01
• At least skimmed through README and most notably FAQ and BUGS sections
• Searched the bugtracker for similar issues including closed ones
• [x ] Bug report (encountered problems with youtube-dl)
• Question

avconv was probably built without https support, you have to compile it with https support.
