2)Seem like start a video procesing
3)the download helper mark an error and the file .mp4 never appear on destiny folder.
I see that FFMPEG say: Unable to find a suitable output format for

There are many ways to configure builds for ffmpeg and we certainly cannot support all of them. We do not officially support the converter on Linux, but we advise to use Libav instead of ffmpeg. Personally, i compiled my own version of Libav and a bunch of codec libraries and it runs successfully on Ubuntu 16.04.

Basically, you need to read this: http://www.downloadhelper.net/conversion-manual
