EUscreen is a website that provides free access to Europe's television heritage through videos, articles, images and audio from European audiovisual archives and broadcasters.

It's possible only one transfer per ip works simultaneously.
Also changing user agent to android might be required.

Playlists (search results) seem to use javascript to load more results.

Later edit: I discovered that it uses multiple stream sources (found at least 2) depending on provider of media. For example one is this open directory: https://euscreen.orf.at/content/ hosted by the provider of media itself. Others use this more complicated one:

It's a custom ticket based file/streaming server, which is open source. You can find it here:

https://www.slideshare.net/nisv_rd/html-5-a-security-solution-for-euxcreenxl - on page 9 of this slide you can see the basic outline of how it works.
The ticket uses a cookie/source ip combo probably, has an expiration, and is probably limited to one connection at time. Hope someone can get it to work.
