Description

as of late it seems hgtv is no longer supported, I'm unable to tell if they have changed something within the rendered html but tests to different videos all seem to generate the same error.
hgtv.ca is region locked.

this issue(support for new Canadian HGTV URLs) has been fixed in the latest version(2019.11.28).
the AETV issue is completely unrelated, you can open a new issue for it.
