MP4Decrypt plugin for yt-dlp

[pratikpatel8982]

Hi everyone, this is my first post. I have created a plugin that allows mp4decrypt to work with yt-dlp as a postprocessor and decrypts audio and video files using a single key or a list of keys from keys.txt file.

That is very welcome. Thank you. Is it possible after decryption to use another --post-processor call to use ffmpeg or mkvmerge?

Yes, use can use multiple postprocessors like --use-postprocsssor:MP4Decrypt --use-postprocsssor:anotherpp but make sure to use MP4Decrypt as the first one. Although I have not tried it yet.

Executable file.

I am also trying to develop something like this if you share the source code of the modified yt-dlp with me that might be helpful for me.

afaik its just a compiled version of yt-dlp with the mp4decrypt plugin - both source codes are readily accessible

when I build with a plugin folder it is not included in the output. i had included but not working if you have any suggestions or ideas tell me how to fix this

[ElCap]

it would have been good to show any errors that you see when you run it or build other than "its not working"

i tried it myself and it just needs 2 things:
- copy mp4decrypt.py to the postprocessor folder
- edit __init__.py in the postprocessor folder and add this line

from .mp4decrypt import MP4DecryptPP

(eg. after this line "from .xattrpp import XAttrMetadataPP")
then build the exe according to the yt-dlp instructions

A different interpretation that works like this:

yt-dlp \
  --use-postprocessor Mp4Decrypt:when=before_dl;devicepath=/path/to/my.wvd \
