At the moment on my mac it throws an NPE:

java.lang.NullPointerException: The YT-DL playlist process resulted in a null or zero-length INFO!
    at net.dv8tion.jda.player.Playlist.getPlaylist(Playlist.java:71)

This is because running youtube-dl through python (i.e. python ./youtube-dl otherArgs...) doesn't work, running it directly via youtube-dl otherArgs... however works fine.

That might be caused by the default version of python in Linux. You might have python python3 and python3.5 installed. I suggest making sure that the version returned by python -v is 3.5.x

I doubt that because the error message when running python ./youtube-dl in the shell is python: can't open file './youtube-dl': [Errno 2] No such file or directory.

I only had youtube-dl on the path rather than in the same directory as the project, my bad.
