proxychains youtube-dl [options] LINK
proxychans uses the tor service by default, if you have your own proxy, edit the last line of the /etc/ file.
sudo apt-get install proxychains tor obfsproxy
If you want to use tor, configure it to use obfs2.

you can use proxy option for command.
youtube-dl –proxy socks5127. 0. 1:1080 url
If you want to use a proxy for all further invocations, create a configuration file
Linux/OSX: ~/
Windows:%APPDATA%\youtube-dl\
with the contents
–proxy socks5127. 1:1080

for current version of youtube-dl you can use switch –proxy
e. g.
$youtube-dl –proxy url
works for me just fine

That syntax of invokation is now deprecated.
From the help page:
–proxy URL Use the specified HTTP/HTTPS proxy. Pass in an empty string (–proxy “”) for direct connection
–cn-verification-proxy URL Use this proxy to verify the IP address for some Chinese sites. The default proxy specified by –proxy (or none, if the options is not present) is used for the actual downloading.
So unless you’re using Chinese proxies, the command should be:
youtube-dl [OPTIONS] –proxy ‘(s)PROXY_URL:PROXY_PORT’ URL
Choosing between or depending on the proxy type.
You could also try testing your proxy using urllib2 directly:
#! /usr/bin/python
import urllib2
import sys
url = [1]
response = urllib2. urlopen(url)
html_string = ()
print html_string

The option –proxy… just applies to that invocation of youtube-dl. To download a video using a proxy, add the video URL to the command line, like this:

Youtube-dl – How to proxy? – VideoHelp Forum
I used this proxy site:
and chose this proxy as my first choice (good guess because it is downloading fine):
89. 36. 222. 170:88
Proxies change all the time, so it may not work later. Free proxies can be problematic.
Put into youtube-dl to get available resolutions:
Code:
youtube-dl –proxy “89. 170:88” -F I chose 640×360 (which corresponds to 18) from below list on command line output.
Final code for download:
youtube-dl –proxy “89. 170:88” -f 18 Direct link to video:
(161MB)
