This program doesn't support download from Nowvideo. Can you add it, please?
In addiction, can you implement a sort of parallel download (or multi-connections) with the aim of made downloads quicker?

Best regards

Yes, but I can notice that your url for nowvideo contain the .ch domain, but nowvideo moved to .sx domain some month ago... Now youtube-dl cannot recognise the URLS because of this fact, perhaps. Can you do something for this?

And for the multiple request I didn't see the original. Sorry :)

In addiction I would say that my idea for parallel downloading was axel-like (with multiple connection on single files), not as requested in https://github.com/rg3/youtube-dl/issues/350 (download more files at the same time). Just to clarify

Thanks for your fantastic work :)
Best regards Loxdegio

Fixed, although the .ch domain can still be accessed. In general it's a good idea to post the url that fails or an example url if you want a new site to be supported.
Thanks for the report.
