Description
I've tried this on 2 URLS which are different companies and url types. Both using Xfinity SSO https://www.nbc.com/american-ninja-warrior-junior/video/grand-finale/4177393 https://disneynow.com/shows/mira-royal-detective/season-01/episode-11-mikku-and-chikku-doll-detectives-the-case-of-the-moving-day-meddler/vdka18668903
This episode didn't require auth, so it worked. https://disneynow.com/shows/mira-royal-detective/season-01/episode-10-mystery-at-the-marketplace-mystery-in-the-sand-dunes/vdka18259064
