Please consider adding support to the viddler extractor for subscriptions.viddler.com URLs. They looks like.
http://subscriptions.viddler.com/channelname/videoname

where channelname is the name of the account providing the fee and videoname is a video id which appears to be a six char [a-z0-9] code. This appears to be a playlist, but maybe it works for single videos as well?
When I go to the URL, it redirects me first to
http://subscriptions.viddler.com/channelname/accounts/sign_in
to enter login/passwd. Also if I try youtube-dl I get this:

ERROR: Unsupported URL: http://subscriptions.viddler.com/channelname/accounts/sign_in?redirect_to=http%3A%2F%2Fsubscriptions.viddler.com%2Fchannelname%videoname

so that URL might be able to be used in the extractor if that helps.

Please let me know if I can provide any more info. Unfortunately I can't provide the particular channelname and videoname, I don't have permission. But maybe it's possible to find a free one that could be used for tests?
