youtube-dl contains an extractor for medici.tv, but it's not working for me currently:

• The extractor doesn't understand the current URL format. Today, the medici.tv URLs have the format like "https://www.medici.tv/en/concerts/{id}/", while the extractor expects "https://www.medici.tv/#!/{id}". However, the good thing is that medici.tv redirects old-style URLs to their new-style analogs, therefore with this knowledge it's possible to construct a command line that allows that extractor.
• For the successful downloading of the pages, the CSRF cookie need to be provided to youtube-dl (but that's, probably, as intended?).
• Even when these two issues are resolved, the extractor fails with "Failed to parse JSON".

Attached please find the verbose logs.

Thanks in advance!
