If the purpose of this issue is a site support request please provide all kinds of example URLs support for which should be included (replace following example URLs by yours):
Note that youtube-dl does not support sites dedicated to copyright infringement. In order for site support request to be accepted all provided example URLs should not violate any copyrights.
Description of your issue, suggested solution and other information
I checked the supported websites on youtube-dl webpage and NowVideo is reported as supported but I'm still having troubles downloading from it. I think this is caused by a possible nowvideo mirror that isn't recognized by youtube-dl. Regarding the video itself I'm trying to download, it's a video previously hosted on my national tv web streaming website and later vanished from it. Since the website itself is supported by youtube-dl there should be no problem whatsoever with this website support request or so I think. Just wanted to make the source of the video clear here in the description of the issue.
Regarding the website itself I think it's kind of sketchy and full of ads (I'm using an adblock and I think you should do the same in case you are going to visit the url when checking it out. I also tried registering but it fails to redirect to a proper registration prompt. I don't know if this is an issue with mirrored websites or if the website itself is just using nowvideo name to get web traffic but the video itself works.
