Can't download The Daily Show anymore #11326

I have the same problem. I think it's caused by the mtv locator, which is in parts used by the comedycentral locator #11148 |

This issue is already fixed and fix will be incorporated in the next version of youtube-dl. |
After Nov. 18th the Comedy Central must have implemented some serious changes. Youtube-dl is unable to even find the videos anymore: "Unable to extract mgid". Please look into this. Thank you very much.
