PornhubPremium Unable to extract title

See original GitHub issue

Trying this out on a pornhubpremium website and cannot download due to title extraction error. Note that on pornhub it works, just not premium.

I found quite a few issues regarding ‘Unable to extract title’. I was wondering if there could be a flag to skip that check/ ignore that error.

Thanks.
