southparkstudios.com: Downloads don't work; player on site works

[PinkPandaKatie]

Downloading from southparkstudios.com fails because the server never returns a response for the requested URL:

Command line: youtube-dl '-v' '-o' '%(autonumber)s-%(id)s.%(ext)s' '-w' 'http://www.southparkstudios.com/full-episodes/s02e14-chef-aid' --print-traffic

The player on the site works fine - it uses RTMP by default, and if I block RTMP it falls back to HTTPS.

I can confirm that, waited for about ~10 minutes and nothing.

This is the output:

PS. The player on the site works fine.

Strange... It's now working... Even before the update to 2014.03.17.

Well... 💃

Works fine with latest version.
