Failed to find mpd or m3u3 for AkamaiHD videos

[yongmuh]

Anyone has solution to download the AkamaiHD videos?

[ElCap]

Akamai is a CDN that streams the media for lots of different streaming sites, they dont have their own streaming service.
(Unless theyve started their own streaming service which i highly doubt..... )

whats the streaming site that you are using?

These are the links of one of the segments:

again, these are just the fragment files from the CDN, you need to find the mpd or m3u8 before these requests.
if its encrypted than you also need to find the key request as well.

i highly doubt anyone can help you without you mentioning the streaming site or webpage to the series/movie

This is one of the link of the videos (login is required):
https://kidneyweek.asn-online.org/live-stream/37810837/Joint-ASN-National-Academy-of-M...-Next-Pandemic

No mpd or m3u8 can be found, as shown in the video here: https://youtu.be/cU2XmWs7XYI

(login is required):

Ain't nobody going through all that required info. God damn.
Provide user/pass.
Or, you can try right clicking (there were you expect mpd/m3u8) -> save all as har content
and upload that file here.

Maybe you can also just search manifest instead of mpd/m3u8?
It might be going through Vimeo's services and I think they have that thing.

This is not my account so I would need to seek her permission first.

The har content is attached.

Search string "manifest" returned no result.

Thanks for you kind help.

The .har file that you uploaded appears to be incomplete (I could be wrong). This seems to have started pretty late in the transaction process.

I suggest that you do a complete site refresh, then run the stream, then pause the stream all the while having the dev tools running. Your .har file seems to be missing the initial calls during which the manifest was accessed.


Tip : Once you start seeing entries such as

https://uhsakamai-a.akamaihd.net/sjc/omega/vod/us1-45cb6996-8a53-4d82-ac2c-ce1271ee633...aa6dd835d9.m4a

and

https://uhsakamai-a.akamaihd.net/sjc/omega/vod/us1-45cb6996-8a53-4d82-ac2c-ce1271ee633...aa6dd835d9.m4v

Then you know that the manifest has already been accessed.



PS : you may want to retouch bases with Lxxx Musxxxx to determine he/she is still willing to have their info posted here.


Finding the manifest is quite simple and you are more than able to do it. Tedious yes but quite doable. All you, or anyone else, have to do is to search each and every line of the network transactions. There is no magic bullet and you are just as good as the people here in searching line by line for mpd or m3u8.

[yongmuh]

It is complete and it contains no manifest, mpd or m3u8.

The attached log started even one link before the video page but I couldnt find those strings as well.

any updates on the "permission" to share login details from "her"?

[yongmuh]

Unfortunately those videos has expired. Anyway thanks for the help!!
