Svtplay's Plugin is currently broken

See original GitHub issue

Plugin Issue

This is a plugin issue and I have read the contribution guidelines.

Description

The svtplay plugin seems to be broken. Every url I have tested yield the same error. Other Swedish geo-restricted sites work fine.

I’m on the latest streamlink 1.5.0 on Windows 10.

Reproduction steps / Explicit stream URLs to test

Go to Svtplay.se with a Swedish Ip, Vpn or Proxy.
Pick some show and it’s URL
Try to stream it with streamlink

Log output

streamlink https://www.svtplay.se/video/27096341/sportnytt/sportnytt-28-aug-22-00-3
[cli][info] Found matching plugin svtplay for URL https://www.svtplay.se/video/27096341/sportnytt/sportnytt-28-aug-22-00-3
error: Unable to parse JSON: Expecting value: line 1 column 1 (char 0) ('<!DOCTYPE html>\n\n<head>\n    <me ...)

Additional comments, screenshots, etc.

Thanks a lot for your support!

It should be fixed by: https://github.com/streamlink/streamlink/blob/0c9a878d96a0b607919e221f275fb64e8be1627c/src/streamlink/plugins/svtplay.py (PR #3155)

Hopefully it’ll be merged into master soon. Cheers.

Great work!
