Bug Description
* Impact
The script stopped working due to changes on the website
* Test case
$ youtube-dl https:/
-> it should download the video
* Regression potential
The script was not working at all so it shouldn't create new problem, just check it downloads videos without error
-------
I am not able to download any videos from youtube on 18.04. This is the error I have.
