I can repro this. It's downloading an "update your app" video instead of the requested video. |

problem seems to persist. |

@jakop345 Nope. Working fine now, mate. @remitamine Thanks |

The below command is still downloading "Update your app-1100009842.mp4"
youtube-dl -f 'bestvideo[height<=480]+bestaudio/best[height<=480]'

Any video trying to download via hotstar.com, seems to be redirecting to a particular URL, which results in downloading an "Update your app.mp4" file. The videos are playable via browser.
The sample video url: https://www.hotstar.com/tv/kasthooriman/s-1347/kavya-reconciles-with-jeeva/1100009804
For the above video, instead of picking up this m3u8 (https://hsdesinova.akamaized.net/video/asianet_hd/kasthooriman/240/master_Layer5_.m3u8), it is picking up (https://hssportsprepack.akamaized.net/videos/cricket/asiacup2018/18_09_2018/2001618252/master_Layer8.m3u8)
