I came here to report the same problem. Let me know if I can provide any other information that could be helpful. 9:42am ~ >./youtube-dl -v -F "http://www.pbs.org/video/natures-miniature-miracles-c7il7p/" |

@wright546 it's not the same problem, #14865 (comment). |
|
@remitamine - any suggestion for a work-around? I'd like to watch this vid, but it will only be around for a few more days. (I have a slow connection. If I want to watch it in decent resolution ...) |
|
Have you tried using this link directly in youtube-dl? |
|
Thanks. I tried, but neither one works... |

@gkoelln - Yes, working. Thanks much. After that, I'll wait for the update. |

Bug report:
DL'ing a PBS video. Three URL's for the same video, none of which work:
http://www.pbs.org/independentlens/videos/shadow-world-full-film/
https://video.ket.org/video/3002680390/
https://player.pbs.org/portalplayer/3002680390/
It seems the requests land on this video (see below):
https://ga.video.cdn.pbs.org/videos/independent-lens/4421e28a-0b0b-493b-b6fd-11c468583171/2000017706/hd-16x9-mezzanine-1080p/8uzocjp4_inle1902-16x9-1080p-1080p-6500k.m3u8
Using advice found on the web, I made another attempt, changing m3u8 to mp4. When that didn't work, I got a lower resolution and tried the same. It also failed.
