For info this project could be a beautiful inspiration to write this InfoExtractor

@iemejia The requirements on using code under other licenses are quite strict, so it's probably not worth the effort to use that project. The licenses (GPL-2 and Unlincense) are incompatible, unfortunately.

Hehe, no problem. I never implied using any code, I just put the link in case someone wants to understand how their encryption works.

I started to work on this here: https://github.com/Rudloff/youtube-dl/tree/pluzz
The main problem is that we need to send the correct cookie in order to download the video. Can InfoExtractor._download_webpage send cookies ?

[Rudloff]

Nevermind, I found an easier way to get the video: Rudloff/youtube-dl@da77de3

@Rudloff: In the end, did you propose this change to be merged into youtube-dl?

[Rudloff]
