Comment (by cypherpunks):

 To add, this has to do with the CDN system.  An example rewritten URL
 would be

 https://r19---sn-
 q4f7dm7s.googlevideo.com/videoplayback?upn=49pItPqNlXM&ip=74.193.79.71&key=yt5&sparams=id%2Cip%2Cipbits%2Citag%2Cratebypass%2Csource%2Cupn%2Cexpire&itag=43&ipbits=0&nh=EAE&ms=nxu&id=361607dba29335b4&ratebypass=yes&mv=u&mt=1384245472&expire=1384269396&sver=3&fexp=938618%2C914097%2C916626%2C930901%2C941320%2C936912%2C936910%2C907231&source=youtube&cpn

 The important components appears to be:
 *.googlevideo.com/videoplayback

 If you take off SSL, it works fine.  Applies to HTTPS-E 3.4.2, though this
 isn't listed in the pulldown.
