Videos with resolution of 1024x768 cannot be downloaded about pluralsight-scraper

The resolutions seem hard-coded into the embedded player js file. Extracting it would be a pain.

The solution would be to try the higher resolution first, then fall back to the lower one.

This seems like the ideal solution. I unfortunately have a lot on my plate at the moment, but PRs are welcome!

I kind of expected this error to arise, but couldn't find a place where it happened. Do you have any idea where we can retrieve the available resolution information?

I don't know where to get the available resolutions, but the web video player of Pluralsight does neither. It tries 1280x720 first (the 404 in the screenshot), then 1024x768:

So doing the same seems appropriate - with a proper delay between requests. Rate limiting seems to kick in fairly quickly.

Good find. Same here, and yes :D
