Having a hard time using youtube-dl and livestreamer to download from CTV.ca

Here's the video: http://www.junos.ctv.ca/video/cid/562513/the-weeknd-earned-it-performance/

Can anyone help me with the RTMP link or M3U8 or even f4m?

I tried doing this using the livestreamer method, but it didn't download the right video. The video I want is http://ottawa.ctvnews.ca/video?clipId=685520, but it somehow grabbed something else. I searched for manifest using the adblocker route and came up with http://capi.9c9media.com/destinations/ctvnews_web/platforms/desktop/contents/685520/contentpackages/790305/stacks/1944454/manifest.f4m. That seems to download a clip about Nelson Mandela.

Any ideas?

for me it's a generic ~1m30s like on my browser

I ended up grabbing it too. It turns out I was missing a 4 in the last bunch of numbers. Thanks for your help!
