Description of your issue, suggested solution and other information

The youtube-dl does not see any videos on the NRK webpage for "Nytt på nytt" program (https://tv.nrk.no/serie/nytt-paa-nytt/2018). It says the playlist contains zero items. But the browser plays a video (I tried Chrome, Firefox). I tried various available episodes and this problem persists for all of them. The videos are available only in Norway, but I am in Norway and do not use any proxies. Other similar similar series, i.e., Lykkeland (https://tv.nrk.no/serie/lykkeland/sesong/1/episode/1/avspiller) do not have this problem and download OK.
