CHANGELOG and LATEST_VERSION seem to serve no purpose at all. They haven't been changed in years. Unless these are actually used somewhere, let's get rid of them.
[SWRMediathek] add support for swrmediathek.de
The opening curly brace, '{', is a regex reserved control character, so it needs to be escaped (see http://stackoverflow.com/a/400316/1106367)
Minor improvements:
no need to sort the whole list if all we need is the maximum element, also instead of reinventing the wheel we can use utils to get indices from qualities.
