New YouTube playlist format, not supported yet

[joshtriplett]

YouTube has changed their playlist page format, and youtube-dl now doesn't find any videos to download; it just downloads the pages of the playlist itself and stops.

The weird thing is... older code (Arch's community repo version) works.

It's works if i change back the _VIDEO_INDICATOR_TEMPLATE at YoutubePlaylistIE:

_VIDEO_INDICATOR_TEMPLATE = r'/watch\?v=(.+?)&'

So is it still broken at version 2012.10.09

@joshtriplett This should be fixed as of 2012.10.09. If it's not, can you provide an example command-line (including playlist URL) that fails?

Not working:

# youtube-dl --version
2012.10.09
# youtube-dl -f 22 "http://www.youtube.com/course?list=EC2F07DBCDCC01493A&feature=plcp"

You will need to download or copy the current repo and do make youtube-dl (and if you want sudo make install) inside it if you don't want to wait for the next release.
