Description

Hey,
The replay sites of the m6 group no longer work with youtube-dl.
Everything works fine from Firefox.
The bug persists for several months now.

I tried from Debian, Manjaro, and Fedora, the bug is reproducible whether it is with the official repository package, or with the version taken from Github.

Thank you.

can't a more user-friendly fix be made?
A month ago, the download from 6play was working normally.
Probably a problem with the DRM of the channel.
