Sometimes when a particular extractor is used the download goes well, but if it switches to the generic extractor for the same site it says unsupported url.

This is more of a general question.

That would be a bug/missing feature. Force a specific extractor does not make sense as extractors are designed to handle a set of known URL patterns.
