Hi,
I'm getting a generic RTMP/RTMPE url when trying to get the direct link to the video with the -g parameter.

When I run "youtube-dl https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gD62f1qqH4c -v -g" I get this:

[debug] System config: []

[debug] Command-line args: ['https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gD62f1qqH4c', '-v', '-g']
