Need help using yt-dlp to download from cine.ar

[jokum1975]

Completely noob here.

I am using yt-dlp-gui because it seems easier than the console commands... but I can work with the console also.

I am trying to download this video: https://play.cine.ar/INCAA/produccion/4657/reproducir

It is not region-locked once a free registration has been completed.

I have looked in the forum and found several examples of 'hidden' m3u8 files ... but to be honest I did not understand where the usable link could be obtained ... any help would be greatly apreciated

Thank you so much. I am already a step closer, however, when I enter the correct line, I get this response:

Any thoughts?

[LZAA]

Need fresh URL 'player.cine.ar'.

[jokum1975]

Fresh URL?

My problem is, that I don't know what to search for and where... the URL is supposedly 'hidden' but can be found via Devtools ... I just don't know how. That is really the info I am after.

[lfer94]

Search for "player.cine.ar/odeon/convert/" in devtools or use The Stream Detector

[jokum1975]

Perfect 'The Stream Detector' did the trick. Everything is working now.

Thank you so much!
