Description of your issue, suggested solution and other information

When trying to download videos from pornhub, I get "Unable to extract title" error. Seems to happen with all videos. When url is opened in browser, nothing extraordinary seems to happen (works as expected)

I created a new issue as all others have been closed without resolving and this bug is still present in version 2018.11.23
