    There aren't any specific options for it programmed at the moment, but you can do it by making some changes in the config file.

    Code:
    subtitles:
      no_mux: "true"
    
    video: "id=X"
    That will download audio only with separate subtitle files.
    There aren't any clean ways of downloading only audio or only subtitles, but it's a relatively easy thing to implement so I'll probably add it in a future update.

    Looks like this particular title had a different manifest structure than others. It's been fixed and will be included in the next update.

    Thanks for letting me know

  4. Thanks for the tool, great stuff.

    I have a question: is it possible to disable the check for a CDM or delete that part from the script so I can DL a series from pluto that isn't protected? I'm grabbing it with yt-dlp atm but I have to manually grab every link and theres tons of episodes, would be cool if I could paste the season link to freevine.

  5. Both encrypted and non-encrypted streams should already work as is. You need to have the pywidevine module in there to properly run the program, but there's no need for any CDM if there's no DRM.

    Just make sure to check available episodes with --titles beforehand. Pluto is the absolute worst when it comes to gaps in library and inconsistent labels.

  7. New update! v0.5.9-beta (20231019):

    Settings:
    I've expanded the config options to allow for each service to have its own settings. You can now choose what video or audio track to include or drop per service instead of having to change the main config each time. So if you regularly use several services, you can set each service to do its own thing.

    You'll find it in /services/config folder.

    Subtitles:
    I've added --subtitles to the command options to download subtitles only (if available).
    BBC iPlayer and Tubi might groan a bit, but it should work.

    Minor fixes:
    Fixed search function to not break when being geo blocked.
    Fixed the occasional MPD error for Roku

    Small bug.

    By default, I alter the subtitles options for 'no_mux' and 'clean'. In other words, change false to true and true to false respectively.

    This has worked flawlessly since it was implemented.

    Using v0.5.9-beta (20231019), no subtitles are downloaded at all, subtitles are muxed, thus ignoring the main config changes. BBC, Ch4 or Ch5. I haven't tried any of the others yet.

    To make this work I had to replicate my changes in the respective channel config yaml files.

    No biggie, things still work and maybe this is now by design.

  10. Yeah, it was by design. But now that I think about it, it's needlessly complicated. It's better to remove the video, audio and subtitle settings from the main config and leave those completely up to each service. Since they all ship with the default settings and get injected into the main config on runtime, there's no need for them to be in the main config at all.

    Thanks for the feedback, as always. As this thing grows, I'll need it to keep the whole thing from becoming a huge mess.

  12. working great so far but i think i've found an issue,

    when trying to grab --episode s02e01 https://www.channel5.com/show/22-kids-counting it errors i think its because when viewing the titles from that show that episode shows :
    20:35:08.491 INFO : 22 Kids & Counting S02E01 22 Kids & Counting at Christmas

  13. Small update v0.6.0-beta (20231022):

    Labels are mostly fixed, including the duplicates on ITV. Seasons and episodes without any clear numbering will no longer display "00", but will simply display their names. Numbers will only show if they actually have them (which is most of the time). For those occasions where labels don't follow standard, I've added so that you can use the name to download episodes:
    Code:
    python freevine.py -e "EastEnders 01/05/2023" https://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episodes/b006m86d
    
    python freevine.py -e "S07 Week 1: Monday" https://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episodes/b094mjv0/richard-osmans-house-of-games
    This addition mostly affects game shows, soaps, and one-off seasons/episodes. For the vast majority of shows, it's business as usual.

    ------------------

    And with this update, most of the basic functionality is implemented. From here, new releases will probably slow down a bit. I'll continue to add and fix stuff in the main branch, so for those of you who use that will always be up-to-date, but official releases will be saved for bigger changes. I'm sure you guys are tired of being notified of new updates every other day.

    Don't hesitate to suggest new features, though. If you have some cool ides, I'd love to hear about it.

    yeah, I must admit I prefered it when settings were done in the main config.yaml. I can't understand why folks would want different settings for different channels. I had config.yaml so that subs were separate and mp4 file. The most important change (ie. quality) could be done by using the -q argument anyway.

    Now, I have to adjust all the services yaml files, (a whole bunch of them) instead of just the one config.yaml. Also, if extra things are added to these services yaml files with future updates, it means having to edit a whole load of them again. It was bad enough just having to change the one config.yaml which I've had to with various updates.

    But hey, just an observation and let's face it, just my personal choice. Still, superb software.

    @stabbedbybrick you've added an option for selecting the audio stream. The main troublesome one is CH4. We can sometimes have 2 'best' audio:
    Code:
    audio=128000     m4a audio only     │  128k dash  │ audio only        mp4a.40.2  128k 48k DRM, DASH audio, m4a_dash
    audio_eng=128000 m4a audio only     │  128k dash  │ audio only        mp4a.40.2  128k 48k [en] DRM, DASH audio, m4a_dash
    If we use 'best', N_m3u8DL-RE defaults on 'audio_eng=128000'. That's the AD stream (you know, stuff like "he gets up to go to the bog to have a shit"). How do I select the 'audio=128000' one instead? And remember, it's not always like this, sometimes CH4 just gives us a 'audio=128000' stream so that would be 'best' then.

    You know I don't think this is possible for CH4. If they were consistent in their naming of the audio streams, then a simple regex would suffice but they don't unfortunately.

    I use the AD track so for me it's dead easy to check in post and then either

    1. leave it as is (most of the time it's this)
    2. remove the AD track
    3. set the normal track as the default track (sometimes they make the AD track the default)

    Maybe (hopefully) I'm wrong and Stabby has a solution hidden in a crack in the wall.

    Code:
    audio=128000     m4a audio only     │  128k dash  │ audio only        mp4a.40.2  128k 48k DRM, DASH audio, m4a_dash
    audio_eng=128000 m4a audio only     │  128k dash  │ audio only        mp4a.40.2  128k 48k [en] DRM, DASH audio, m4a_dash
    If we use 'best', N_m3u8DL-RE defaults on 'audio_eng=128000'. That's the AD stream (you know, stuff like "he gets up to go to the bog to have a shit"). How do I select the 'audio=128000' one instead? And remember, it's not always like this, sometimes CH4 just gives us a 'audio=128000' stream so that would be 'best' then.
    The reasoning behind having separate settings is for people who regularly use different services to "set it and forget it" without having to edit the main config every single time you use the program. All these services have their own quirks in regards to track selection, and the video and audio options go beyond just "best" and "worst". You can specify tracks by id, resolution, language, codec, duration etc. For example, you can set Roku to download the best 1080p option and the non-dolby audio track, while setting Channel4 to download the non-AD track and the next best 1080p option. All without having to edit the main config every time. That is a massive improvement in functionality in my mind.

    When it comes to having to edit the config files, that's a limitation of using .zip files more than anything. Every time you download a new update as a .zip file, it's like you're downloading the portable version of a software. It's impossible for local settings to remain when downloading a portable version of anything; they would have to be replaced manually. Whereas if you're using Git, it's like you're updating an existing installation and the old merges with the new.

    As for the audio stream on Channel4, you select the track by its id:
    Code:
    audio:
      track: "id=audio_eng=128000"
    I have mine set to "id=audio_eng=128000" and have not once gotten the AD track. If you have any specific examples of when the ids are switched around, feel free to post them here and I'll take a look. It might be possible to look up the track description beforehand.

    You've mixed up the commands.

    For downloading directly using the episode URL:
    Code:
    python freevine.py EPISODE_URL
    For request episode(s) using the series main URL:
    Code:
    python freevine.py --episode S01E01 MAIN_URL

  21. I was trying to d/l a couple of episodes from iPlayer.
    I get this error:

    ERROR: Segment count check not pass, total: 927, downloaded: 916

    Tried couple of times again, same error.
    when I look at temp folder it has all 927 m4s files.

    Another episode was fixed after I tried second time.

    Running the latest Freevine v0.6.0-beta (20231022)

    Any resolution? Thanks.

  24. It's working perfectly fine over here, so this is likely a local error on your end. And I'm not entirely sure what the reason could be as I've never seen that error before.

    Maybe try reducing the threads in the config and see if that's whats causing the fragments to get a mismatch?

  25. For the most part, everything has been working. Thanks for the script!

    1. I get the mismatched segments too from ITV and BBC, but I just assumed those services just don't like the VPN I am using.

    2. For some reason, this specific episode doesn't work.

    3. When I change seasons to "false' in config.yaml, nothing changes. It still puts all the episodes into show/season directories.

    4. Any chance you will change the script to use the pywidevine python module instead of the old WKS-KEYS pywidevine? I got it working with the newer WKS-KEYS pywidevine but if you use the pywidevine module, no outside code would be needed and no conflict with different protobuf versions.

    5. As for future features, how about chapter breaks? or other free services like CBC in Canada, and the various Australian networks (Seven, Nine, ABC, Network 10)?

    I'm still waiting on when it will pour me a beer .

    RTE player would be nice as well

    But hey, I'm not complaining. An absolutely wonderful suite of downloaders.

    Regarding Aussie networks, a bit of offtopic: is there any VPN out there whose AU servers aren't slow as mud?

    You're very welcome!

    First of all, your version is outdated. The newest release is v0.6.0-beta, with the main branch receiving the newest updates.

    1. The mismatched segments, I genuinely don't know what's the cause. I'll try to investigate, but I've never seen it even after downloading hundreds of videos.
    Try using N_m3u8DL-RE to download the videos manually, outside of the script, and see if you get the same errors. That would at least point us in the right direction.

    2. You managed to find an episode where the mpd URL wasn't formatted the same as the rest. It's relatively common on these services and should be an easy fix.

    3. This shouldn't be a problem in the updated version. It will always save in a folder with the series name, but season folders will be skipped if "false" or if there is no official season.

    4. Not sure. I tend to forget that some people don't separate their projects into virtual environments where this isn't an issue. But I'm not unreasonable, so if that's something people want maybe?

    5. Adding chapter breaks is a lot of work for little benefit, so probably not. As for adding new services, I don't have any immediate plans for new ones. But if there is a particular service with good content not found anywhere else, that would be something worth looking into.

  29. 2. Should I try to find the MPD URL or is this something you can fix in a future update?

    3. Oh, I see. I thought the option was to put all episodes into the 'download' directory with no directories at all. In that case, I suggest allowing that as an option. And also an option to customize the season directory naming in the same way that you can customize filenames.

    4. Right now, in your setup instructions, a person has to download a .zip file with WKS-KEYS pywidevine from some third party website. I think just for cleanliness of the install process, using the pywidevine module as another python dependency is better.

    5. For your consideration, all of the services I mentioned has original content. CBC has their own originals. And Australian TV is really its own ecosystem. Lots of originals and also many Australian versions of many tv franchises, particularly reality tv. Also, all will provide unique Olympics coverage.

  30. 2. No, you don't have to find anything. I looks like the issue is that this particular episode doesn't offer 1080p for some reason. I'll look into it.

    3. You actually want a messy "download" folder with everything inside? The thought alone sends shivers down my overly organized spine :P

    4. I see your point. But adding a tiny folder is also a nice alternative to a bloated pip installation. Especially at this point in development. People also seem thoroughly confused by .wvd files, which is an additional headache I'm not sure I want to deal with.

    5. CBC has been requested a few times now, so I'll look into it.
