I fork this project and try to debug it. I find it can extract the piece mp4 url (like this) and the server seems add a more strict check for request, so the downloading of video is denied by the server. I try to figure out, and i will share my solution if it works.

[JinhuaSu]

It is solved by request that media piece url with correct header Referer=https://www.ixigua.com/
