I'm trying to play youtube videos through mplayer

using the cookies file of youtube.com..

when i tried this command ..

mplayer -fs -cookies -cookies-file /tmp/cookie.txt $(youtube-dl -gf 5 --cookies /tmp/cookie.txt "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-------------")

i got an error of "No stream found to handle url "https://r15---sn-cvh7zn7d.googlevideo.com/-----------""""

This is more a question than a bug.

If this is still an issue, better report it upstream at https://github.com/rg3/youtube-dl/issues

Best to close it here as Ubuntu doesn't do more than build and package this and this is not package or build related.
