Description

Dplay announced during fall that they would transit and change the name of the plattform to strengthen the brand. Today this transition took affect. (Link to announcement)

The changes has resulted in a broken extractor.

The changes that are needed not much more then to change the domains for API calls and for the check of the url itself. Usage of cookies remains the same.

Also maybe it would be appropriate to change the name of the extractor from dplay to Discovery+.

Samples on things that has been changed:

What does that mean?

The source code to youtube-dl.exe?

Update youtube-dl. It was just released. Although it seems like they don’t have the “.com” domain in there. Looks like just a fix for the international discoveryplus sites. dk, es, fi, it, se, no domains are in there but no .com

[remitamine]

It has been added in the latest version of yt-dl and therefore has this ticket been closed.

no, this issue is about Dplay websites changing their domains to dicoveryplus domains, there is already an open issue related to discoveryplus.com. @SYSophie again, i already linked to the issue related to you’re problem.
