Description of your issue, suggested solution and other information

Downloads from rtve.es have stopped working since a couple of days ago. Seems the page structure has changed.

[stinkteeth]

For some reason the extractor is requesting the hls playlist from;
http://hlsvod.tcdn.rtve.es/auth ...

When there is no "auth" in the actual path.

There is also http progressive mp4 source url;
http://mvod.lvlt.rtve.es/resources/TE_NGVA/mp4/6/3/1506011092536.mp4
