This is a regression caused by b49745d, which effectively disabled downloading videos from video_dash_manifest data.

I appreciate your super speedy reply!

@siubb Sorry to bother you, but may I ask — were you eventually able to download a 1080p video using the same URL https://www.instagram.com/estevampelomundo/reel/DHLhnFeT_QI/ ? I’ve been trying for a long time but still can’t get it to work — the highest quality I can download is only 720p.
