Description

The first video downloads just fine using the generic extractor, but the video is downloaded twice. However the 2nd and 3rd video couldn't be downloaded, giving an error:

Judging from the webpage it appears that the 1st video uses a different player than the other two.

This is expected behavior. 2nd and 3rd videos don't play in browser.

But I have seen that 2nd and third videos can be played on browser. Atleast in my browser.
