bug description

A particular Dailymotion video is giving me the following error:
"something went wrong when fetching info from dailymotion and i couldn't get anything for you. if this issue sticks, please report it!"
I tried a different Dailymotion video and found success, so for some reason it's only this URL as far as I can tell. I'm not logged in on Dailymotion, so I don't expect it's some sort of age restriction. Changing various settings (e.g. video format, quality) has no effect. Probably doesn't matter if it's so specific, but it might affect a broader subset of URLs than I'm seeing here?

reproduction steps

Paste "https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x95dgr4" into cobalt.tools and attempt to download.

screenshots

No response


platform information

Firefox ver. 138.0.4 (64-bit) on Windows 11 10.0.26100 Build 26100

Well, the video's been deleted anyway. Sorry to waste your time!
