Hey all,

so that's the second try. I hope now the issue is complete.

As explained in the first try (see #18561) youtube-dl supports the site lecturio.com. They also have a german variant lecturio.de. They have eCourses about medicin, law, software, economics and so on.

Actually the extractor don't recognizes the german variant. As shown above youtube-dl falls back to generic. The expected behaviour would be that it downloads a single video if a video URL is provided and if a couse URL is provided the course is downloaded (like a playlist). Also the login should be supported to download purchased stuff as long as it don't has copy-protection. I don't know whether there is stuff that is dopy-protected. To download a full course an account is needed and the couse need to be purchased. I can provide an account with a purchased course but I don't will do this in the issue this can be done private.

I hope now everything is included.

Best Regards
