Description

Tele5 changed something on their backend tonight. Yesterday I was able to download just fine, but today it just gives that error. This happens with all movies on https://www.tele5.de/filme/online/ as of today, even those that I was able to successfully download yesterday.

Note this is not a duplicate of #22810 as the error message is different so I thought it would be better to open a new issue instead of piggybacking on the old one.

@martin54 this fix fails on playlist items but with a small change it works great and preserves the video ids.

    def _real_extract(self, url):
        qs = compat_urlparse.parse_qs(compat_urlparse.urlparse(url).query)
        video_id = (qs.get('vid') or qs.get('ve_id') or [None])[0]

        if not video_id:
            display_id = self._match_id(url)
            webpage = self._download_webpage(url, display_id)
            video_id = self._html_search_regex(
                (r'id\s*=\s*["\']video-player["\'][^>]+data-id\s*=\s*["\']([^"\']+)',
                 r'\s+id\s*=\s*["\']player_([^"\']{6,})',
                 r'\bdata-id\s*=\s*["\']([^"\']{6,})'), webpage, 'JWplayer video id')  # NEW: get new JWplayer video id

        # NEW: translate the new JWplayer video id into the old nexx video id:
        info = self._download_json('https://cdn.jwplayer.com/v2/media/%s' % video_id, self._match_id(url))  # when video id is in the url display id isn't initialised
        video_id = info['playlist'][0]['nexx_id']  # TODO: no idea, how to use: info.get()
        if not video_id:
            error = '%s: Cannot get nexx video id' % display_id
            raise ExtractorError(error, expected=True)  # Needs: from ..utils import ExtractorError

        return self.url_result(
            'https://api.nexx.cloud/v3/759/videos/byid/%s' % video_id,
            ie=NexxIE.ie_key(), video_id=video_id)

My bad I completely missed that, I’ve got a fix that works based on JWPlatformIE rather than the NexxIE as that seemed a more straight forward approach.
