Yeah, expected. Older versions skip (partially) the DASH manifest, but this was changed because some formats apparently require to use it.

Not sure what this new issue is again, probably the same as before, we need to narrow it down a bit first.

Edit:

#5118

@Hrxn: This only occurs if in-page format URLs do not use encrypted signatures. In most cases URLs are encrypted; only in a few cases URLs can be used directly - that's determined by YouTube servers. Actually, I've never got unencrypted URLs, either.
