KIJK.NL (SBS6) downloads have stopped working...

[MatrixView]

• I've verified and I assure that I'm running youtube-dl 2017.11.26
• At least skimmed through the README, most notably the FAQ and BUGS sections
• Searched the bugtracker for similar issues including closed ones
• Bug report (encountered problems with youtube-dl)

---

KIJK.NL downloads don't seem to work anymore. Maybe a consent.sbs6.nl cookie is needed?
Hope you can fix this! Thx in advance!

@MatrixView @matthijsbreemans

Did you get this working. I did as @solipsist01 did with the cookies file and it still gives unsupported URL.

[H2172]

Same problem here. The cookie is not the problem, as without a cookie it would redirect to consent.kijk.nl to set a cookie.
