New Problems With video.pbs.org

[wright546]

I'm running into the same issue I did as #7565. I commonly download PBS programs using youtube-dl and it usually works perfectly. PBS must have changed something on their site because I started receiving errors yesterday. I tested the URL in the below example in Chrome and verified that the video is actually there and plays successfully. I also updated to the most recent version of youtube-dl, 2016.02.09.1. I'm using a FreeBSD 10.2 machine with Python 2.7.9.

Please let me know if I should provide any other information. Thank you!

This issue is already fixed and fix will be incorporated in the next version of youtube-dl.
