You may be able to send a HEAD request to the URL, but there's no guarantee the response will contain a Content-Length header. In fact, there will never be a Content-Lenght header for infinite HTTP streams. Also, RTMP URLs are way more complicated. > I have also been getting errors reporting: > RTMP download detected but "rtmpdump" could not be run You need rtmpdump.

Do not forget to consider the usefulness not only for your specific application, but also of other applications. I think the command-line API (https://github.com/rg3/youtube-dl/issues/152) will be your best shot. Note that you can already redirect youtube-dl's output to a file, just like any other shell program: $ youtube-dl uHlDtZ6Oc3s > log will write a file log that contains all of youtube-dl's output. If the return code is not 0, an error has occured.
