Videos that doesn't allow embedding in 3rd party sites #8

I seem to hit a wall trying to fetch a video that doesn't allow embedding. 

ERROR:  <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ihgh55IeL3Q&feature=player_embedded" target="_blank">Se denne video på YouTube.</a> Afspilning på andre websites er blevet deaktiveret af videoejeren.

Translates to:

ERROR: <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ihgh55IeL3Q&feature=player_embedded" target="_blank"> Watch this video on YouTube. </a> Playback on other websites has been disabled by the video owner.

Any idea how to overcome this. For now, I am trying to use this through the cli

The way the library works, it may not be possible to download such videos unfortunately.

@knadh 👍 makes sense then. Thanks for clarifying.
