Description of your issue, suggested solution and other information

AOL On website is no longer downloading videos as of today and needs to be updated. It seems to extract the correct links still, but as of today says "Unable to open key file" and then fails.

Example link to test: http://on.aol.com/video/steph-curry-is-nba-s-1st-unanimous-mvp-57322966e4b0144970cadead

Seems some videos are encrypted. Beofre it's fixed, use the following command to download on.aol.com videos:

youtube-dl -v -f 'best[protocol^=http]' "http://on.aol.com/video/steph-curry-is-nba-s-1st-unanimous-mvp-57322966e4b0144970cadead"

[SeanPM5]

Thanks a lot @yan12125 that special command works perfectly for now until it's fixed.

youtube-dl http://on.aol.com/video/steph-curry-is-nba-s-1st-unanimous-mvp-57322966e4b0144970cadead works for me now.

It has probably been fixed see #9551 by 0b36a96

We should consider closing this issue.

[yan12125]

It's working now as people at on.aol.com has fixed their website. Closing.
