Description of your issue, suggested solution and other information

Parliamentlive.tv seems to have stopped working. The above error log is for the first video I tried but I have recreated this on several videos on the site.

Here's a workaround:

1. Open the page with the video
2. Right-click and choose "Inspect"(or whatever your browser calls it)
3. Go to the Network tab, and refresh the page
4. Once the video starts playing use the filter box in the Network tab to search for "m3u8"
5. Right-click the result and choose "Copy URL"(if there is more than one just try each one using the next steps until you find your video)
6. Now run youtube-dl 'http://M3U8URL' -F, If you get shown a selection of video qualities then it's possible to download the video
7. Now run youtube-dl 'http://M3U8URL' to download the video. (use the -f flag with the codes displayed in step 7 if you wish to choose a specific format or quality)

NOTE: If you get the error:

No such file or directory
ERROR: ffmpeg exited with code 1

Then add the -o Parliament.mp4 flag to your command
