Description of your issue, suggested solution and other information

Seems to happen often with newer PluralSight content, sometimes older content... tested with latest version.

Example url the above was tested with... https://app.pluralsight.com/library/courses/aspdotnet-core-2-razor-playbook

robsoncloud commented 6 years ago

Same here

XeonG commented 6 years ago

Interestingly.. that url above started downloading yesterday, got about 13videos downloaded...

however I try resuming from video 13 again today and I get the below variation on the above error....

Would be great if pluralsight just offered subscribers a way to download the damn videos for offline and better desktop video playing... instead of forcing us to watch through there own janky system, but right now youtube-dl is the only way and its not working 100% of the time. I hope someone is able to look into it.
