Need help downloading m3u8 videos

[pesfacemaker]

I'm trying to download some m3u8 videos, I used "yt-dlp" and was able to get an ".mp4" file with the video but the file is not showcasing any thumbnail and it's missing the details like video height, width, bitrate, etc. It's almost like it's encrypted but the video plays fine.

Any idea why this is and what I can do to get a regular .mp4 file instead?

Thanks

OP asked for content on this website : https://opto.sic.pt/ (need Portugal IP)

I have made a script to get VOD or series easily :
