Description of your issue, suggested solution and other information

Hi,

Youtube-dl can not download certain youtube streams, while others work.

Some streams giving me problems:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vyvpbqlNaEw
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sx5_QGdFmq4
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zB4I68XVPzQ

There are others. Most streams (>70%) seem to work fine.

Sorry, I posted the wrong log. It is informative in that way it demonstrates that a slightly older version gave an HTTP error. The current one seems to hang (indefinitely) - until I press CTRL+C:
