Description

Hi,
I just noticed, that YouTube-DL prefers Medium audio quality (128kb/s) over high audio quality (256kbit/s) for Vimeo Downloads (auto format selection).

hls-fastly_skyfire-audio-medium-audio
instead of
hls-fastly_skyfire-audio-high-audio

Also one of the JSON URLs Vimeo tries to query for this URL errors with 403 (Forbidden).
That might be intentional but it could also be a bug.

Thanks for taking your time to read this :)

Please try the real URL, without the /comments part.
