While it hasn't been a problem to download content from http://www.npo.nl/uitzending-gemist for as long as I can remember, since a little over a week or so, youtube-dl throws an error. I suspect npo.nl changed something on their site to either block youtube-dl or the change simply doesn't agree with the code.

Example output:

$ youtube-dl http://www.npo.nl/radar-extra-de-prijs-van-de-euro-deel-1/25-05-2015/AT_2028609
[npo.nl] AT_2028609: Downloading JSON metadata
ERROR: Unable to download JSON metadata: HTTP Error 410: Gone (caused by HTTPError());

$ youtube-dl http://www.npo.nl/brugklas/02-07-2015/AT_2035001
[npo.nl] AT_2035001: Downloading JSON metadata
ERROR: Unable to download JSON metadata: HTTP Error 410: Gone (caused by HTTPError());

I am able to reproduce this result at every attempt (I've been trying for a few days now).

I am running the latest version of youtube-dl at the time of posting this.

youtube-dl is up-to-date (2015.06.25)
