Description

WRITE DESCRIPTION HERE
Downloading from ServusTV is working well for URLs starting with "https://www.servustv.com/videos/..." but not for other URLs, here is an example for URL for sports events:
https://www.servustv.com/sport/v/aa-26u9qxfd52111/
I've tried just extending _VALID_URL to match this type of URLs, but there are additional changes needed. After extending _VALID_URL the verbose output was:

Did you do a successful download with this change? This is close to what I tried myself and the result was that the link was detected but the download was not working...
