The example video http://n-1-18.dcs.redcdn.pl/dash/o2/n/planete/15005218_Swiat_wedlug_niemowlecia/ss/Manifest.ism?t=1483527972874 and many other on this server contains reference to bitrate in the intialization parameter in the Manifest.ism file: initialization="?type=video&bitrate=$Bandwidth$&id=$RepresentationID$". In the common.py, InfoExtractor class, _parse_mpd_formats method only replace RepresentationID parameter. This makes invalid request to the server with error response 500.

Maybe this video is avaible only from my Country. I attach downloaded manifest.
As i said the problem is with "initialization" attribute of SegmentTemplate element. The "media" attribute is processed correctly and all parameters are replaced to values. In "initialization" attribute only $RepresentationID$ parameter was changed to value 1 and $Bandwidth$ parameter remains in created request.

In example request is:

GET /dash/o2/n/planete/15005218_Swiat_wedlug_niemowlecia/ss/Manifest.ism?type=video&bitrate=$Bandwidth$&id=1 HTTP/1.1

but should be:

GET /dash/o2/n/planete/15005218_Swiat_wedlug_niemowlecia/ss/Manifest.ism?type=video&bitrate=1600000&id=1 HTTP/1.1
