I think I'm having the same issue as @best-job as Vidzi stopped working for me about a week ago as well. Here's what I'm seeing:

Thanks for the analysis, @plexigras. Guess Vidzi is trying to make it difficult to someone to download directly from them. Unfortunately I'm not in a good position to work on a fix for this due to my limited internet access so hopefully a contributor can look at it.

Thanks so much, @plexigras and @dstftw . Vidzi is working great once again.
