Fairfax owns a number of newspaper websites these are: www.brisbanetimes.com.au, www.watoday.com.au, www.theage.com.au, www.canberratimes.com.au and finally, www.smh.com.au. The generic extractor downloads the wrong videos from these sites.
All use similar but not identical html to present descriptions and titles. Videos are served in the same way on each of the sites. There's a "media.*" subdomain that hosts videos on each of the sites too. This uses slightly different html to show titles and descriptions from the main site.
Example URLs:
