   1. This is the video I am trying to download:
   https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=625LPUACix0
   2.
   3. I tried all the possible CLI combinations - same result.
   4. Volkers solution - gave me a button to download an FLV file - got an
   HTML file to download when I clicked it...
   5. I think Tony's solution is the best: Purge livav and download FFMPEG
   from the PPA. I'll try that...

Thank you all!

Amichai

</span>What media player are you using?<br>
<br>
Have you tried vlc?<br>
<br>
Some videos, I can not download from youtube, with youtube-dl, but the<br>
ones that I can download, I can view and hear, with using vlc as the<br>
media player.<br>
