Can someone edit it to import MTVServicesInfoExtractor from .mtv and use the links from issue #11662 as tests since the links in vh1.py are no longer valid? This could finally close issue #9613.

Or is there a way to update it ourselves? If so, I would like to see if this update would work

No answer?

Can someone update it to use MTVServicesInfoExtractor?

This isn't a duplicate, it's a request.

How to do it if I'm new to this?
