Description of your issue, suggested solution and other information

Hi,

When I tried downloading videos from the Facebook urls beginning with "https://www.facebook.com/v2.3/plugins/video.php", the Unsupported URL error is returned.

Eg.:

Note the youtube-dl is able to download videos from Facebook urls beginning with
"https://www.facebook.com/plugins/video.php"

Thanks.

This also does not work:

It thinks you need to log in - which is clearly not true.
