Some sites are too niche for mainstream support (think for example of the Dutch public broadcasting company). For most sites, you can find an mpeg dash manifest by quickly checking the Network tab in Developer Tools. Unfortunately, I can't download these videos using cobalt, since the CDN the mpeg dash manifest is on is not whitelisted. Could you maybe add an exception for URLs ending in .mpd? I take you've already implemented the mpeg dash downloading in cobalt, so all I'm really asking for is the ability to skip the 'extraction' step.

Thanks! :-)
