Description of your issue, suggested solution and other information

My youtube-dl works on other video in Iqiyi, but not this particular page. http://www.iqiyi.com/v_19rrlrh3yg.html. i'm using this account to test youtube-dl -u 18600775053 -p woaiwojia521 http://www.iqiyi.com/v_19rrlrh3yg.html

Logging with phone numbers is not implemented yet.

[ckckchen]

logging with phone number worked for other vip video pages. The above URL is the only page I met this issue

[yan12125]

Well in the browser I got the following error:

大陸付費內容無法在台灣購買，請切換模式後觀看

(Paid contents are not available in Taiwan, please switch the mode)
I enable Unblock-Youku and then it shows:

您的電腦可能存在惡意的插件導致視頻無法播放，請檢查並卸載

(There may be malicious plugins in your computer that prevent videos from playing. Please check and uninstall them)
Does that mean a China proxy is needed?

[ckckchen]

I 'm not sure what happened here. It looks like unblock youku banned by iqiyi. For most vip contents in iqiyi , they require a Chinese IP address.

[ckckchen]

I'll try to find a email formt account to see whether it works or not

[yan12125]

Do you have a trustworthy China proxy? Passwords on Iqiyi are sent over unencrypted HTTP channels and I'm afraid passwords would be stolen.

[yan12125]

Iqiyi is fixed in 2644e91, while your password is now invalid so I can't test it. Could you try again?

[yan12125]

No response from the original poster for a long time. The latest version works fine for me, so closing.
