Help using N_m3u8DL-CLI

Hi everyone. I'm trying to download and decrypt a video I paid for on Weverse.

I have the MPD address and inputting that into the simple GUI of N_m3u8DL-CLI yields the video and audio files separately but I cannot play them due to DRM.

Using the WidevineProxy2 Chrome extension, I was able to get the decryption keys, but I am not sure where to go from here. There seem to be multiple keys listed in the Keys section.
Code:
--key ae96ff73e80a4fe3dd2624197cf7d253:6ee2d0e20838443bbc11f01fcbd6da6e --key e144d6b2f1e2e7cb9e30b8d4ef688905:413530b077f9ad5045dc1b4bc209550f --key 4078c3cefc6c075560442e995d66aef2:218c19435dd20222195f91ae8044b198 --key a351c5b7ca6d83e621c24033aafca534:e83eb28f99e57ae824791925de81b066 --key 98e5f935fe968475f0ef40a07dba4607:c3938a6edc46ba1b2a789ad7145ee45b
Putting that entire string into the "SetKEY" section of the N_m3u8DL-CLI simple GUI does not seem to work, nor does using one of those keys or one of the keys with the : removed.

WidevineProxy2 also has a cmd at the bottom which gave me this:
Code:
N_m3u8DL-RE "ADDRESSHERE" -H "User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/145.0.0.0 Safari/537.36" -H "accept: application/xml" -H "DNT: 1" -H "Origin: https://weverse.io" -H "Referer: https://weverse.io/" -H "Cookie: NNB=AIJ6OPFBXW2WS" --key ae96ff73e80a4fe3dd2624197cf7d253:6ee2d0e20838443bbc11f01fcbd6da6e --key e144d6b2f1e2e7cb9e30b8d4ef688905:413530b077f9ad5045dc1b4bc209550f --key 4078c3cefc6c075560442e995d66aef2:218c19435dd20222195f91ae8044b198 --key a351c5b7ca6d83e621c24033aafca534:e83eb28f99e57ae824791925de81b066 --key 98e5f935fe968475f0ef40a07dba4607:c3938a6edc46ba1b2a789ad7145ee45b --use-shaka-packager -M format=mkv
Note that the address in the cmd it spit out which I've redacted is different from the MPD address that I was able to download from but not decrypt.

I tried inputting this straight into the N_m3u8DL-CLI command line but it just closes the window and nothing happens.

I know it says to only ask for help with videos that everyone can view but recent posts here seem to asking for general help, which is what I am hoping to get. I believe I have all the elements needed to download and decrypt the video but I do not know how to put things together to get them to work. While I have maybe above average computer skills, I am not well versed in coding or command lines so I hope you will all be kind to me. Please let me know if I need to download/install anything extra. I have N_m3u8DL-CLI sitting in a folder on my desktop, Shaka packager installed via prebuilt binary, and a friend helped me install Python, Widevine, NPM, and pywidevine (used when compiling the wdv file for WidevineProxy2). In my N_m3u8DL-CLI folder, aside from the N_m3u8DL-CLI command line and simple GUI exe files, the other files inside are ffmpeg.exe, mkvmerge.exe, and mp4decrypt.exe.

Thanks in advance.

You need this: https://github.com/nilaoda/N_m3u8DL-RE/releases/tag/v0.3.0-beta

not the N_m3u8DL-CLI

Thank you so much!! I had to use the MPD address instead of the one that WidevineProxy2 spit out in the cmd, but using N_m3u8DL-RE it was able to download and seemingly decrypt. My problem now is that the merged file at the end is only 1KB when during the download process it downloaded close to 16GB.

Here is the log. Any ideas why the merged file is not as it should be?

Code:

By the way, sorry – I sent you the link for the old version; you’d better update it: https://github.com/nilaoda/N_m3u8DL-RE/releases/tag/v0.5.1-beta

Then try adding this command:

--check-segments-count false

If you're still having the same problem, try a lower resolution

and let me know

Hi. Thank you. I used the updated version and added in the command, but unfortunately it's still the same. I get a 1kb mkv file.

I look above your post, your cmd for n_m3u8dl-re, those keys you add is not match for video and audio KID so you fetch wrong keys.
this correct KID...
video - --key c09a2ee49f83cef0bba4963f2e5b00fa:####????????
Audio - --key 9501f230528ed5a294c4e168205e9649:###???????

try downloading it without --use-shaka-packager. last time I ripped from weverse I remember that option causing me trouble. without that option it will use mp4decrypt for the decryption step which I've never had issues with.

Hi. Thank you for replying. I used the WidewineProxy2 extension to get the keys. Is there any other method to retrieve the decryption keys or is there a reason why the extension is not giving me the correct keys? I've also tried the Firefox extension Widevine L3 Decrypter but the error message said it doesn't support Weverse.

I've done that too and it's the same, unfortunately. Can I ask what you used to figure out the decryption keys for Weverse? That could be the source of my issues. Thanks!

Note that the address in the cmd it spit out which I've redacted is different from the MPD address that I was able to download from but not decrypt.

The decryption keys provided by widevineproxy2 are for the MPD address you removed. Why did you remove it?

Because the cmd doesn't work with the address that WidevineProxy2 shows. When I use the cmd exactly as the extension spits out, I get this error 10 times and then it stops. It doesn't download anything.
Code:
WARN : Response status code does not indicate success: 401 (Unauthorized). (1/10)
With the direct MPD address that I used (and redacted from my posts because it is a paid video), it at least downloads. If you are gracious enough to try to help me privately through DM, I can give you the full cmd that Widevineproxy2 comes up with and the MPD address that I've been trying to download from. I found the MPD address that actually works from the network tab in developer tools.

Thank you for your time.

You know how to use widevineproxy and N_m3u8-RE. Just do the process, for sure you will be able to download the video.

If only it were that simple.

As I've said, if I use the cmd that widevineproxy spits out, I get an error about it being unauthorized and I can't download the file. If I use the mpd address I found via web developer instead of the one widevineproxy gives me, the file downloads but cannot be decrypted.

ok so I decided to buy a membership again and test downloading from weverse myself to see if anything has changed since the last time I did. it's still very easy and straightforward as you'd expect. you already have the right tools and process but I'll reiterate it for you:

1. use an extension to get all the decryption keys. I use vineless, but widevineproxy and playreadyproxy should work just the same.

2. open the dev tools network tab, search for "stream.mpd" and copy that mpd url. ignore the url the proxy extension picks up, that one is just an api endpoint for retrieving keys and video info.

3. download with n-m3u8dl-re, no other cookies or authentication required.
Code:
n-m3u8dl-re "https://g-aegis-naver.akamaized.net/weverse/...../stream.mpd" -M mkv --auto-select --key <key> --key <key> --key <key> ...
so either you have the wrong mpd url or the wrong keys somehow, or maybe n-m3u8dl-re can't find your decryption program?

I also ended up writing a python script to automate all this so if you're interested in that then send a pm and I can share and help you set it up.

Appreciate you taking the time to help me. I've never heard of Vineless. Will try that one and see if I have better luck.

I will DM you too, if you don't mind. Thanks.
