Hi Guys,

I was wanting to download a few videos from http://www.pcmag.com/. They are a leading news website focused providing reviews and previews of the latest hardware and software for the information technology professional. Unfortunately, youtube-dl wasnt able to extract their videos.

By the way You guys offer the best support as always!
