Youtube reverted changes to their url structure system after 24hr
"experiment" so it was just "broken" for a day and magically "fixed"
itself.
Folks over at youtube-dl hustled out patches fairly quickly.. which they
then had to revert again 12hrs later or something when youtube switched
back.
Public bug reported:
Seems youtube changed the format of their metadata *again*, breaking
vlc, youtube-dl, etc.
