Hi,

I was wondering if it is possible to include the video ID in the error messages, eg. turning lines like
ERROR: YouTube said: This video contains content from UMG, who has blocked it in your country on copyright grounds.
to
ERROR [videoIDhere]: YouTube said: This video contains content from UMG, who has blocked it in your country on copyright grounds.
to be able to know which video failed when letting youtube-dl work on a playlist.
I wrote a little script that utilizes youtube-dl and mplayer to playback videos, and if this was changed I could unblock a few videos on the fly (until then I would have to download the whole playlist again via a proxy).

Regards

Yeah, might be useful, but meanwhile the id is on the precedent output line, no?

Normally yes, but if you add --get-url --get-title (so that mplayer can do the steaming), its not.

video_id can now be passed into ExtractorError. Code needs to be reviewed to pass that parameter where appropriate.
