hardware links require L1 or PlayReadySL2000/3000 for 720p/1080p thats why you don't get it to work on the new endpoints. Mixxing up old and new Endpoints brings you nothing the license url is completly wrong for the old endpoints.

Like i said they will be dead in a few weeks so makes no sense to use it. Also there is a reason why i don't public my own tool, last time i did somebody sold it to other people.

hardware android_tv url only works for 12 hours so be quick.

Its quiet simple some licensed series won't play in HD in the browser, so using the browser endpoint makes no sense, you need some of the tv or android endpoints. All i can say i can get you the keys i won't write anything public here, last time i did something public my Tool was sold and a lot of people got ripped off because RTL changed something and ofcourse it didnt worked in the end. So this time i don't make this mistake again.

So if somebody needs keys just write me a PM.

Thanks for the links, but I did not ask for a specific episode or so. I looked for a way to download the free episodes once a week. I also do not want to spend manual labor downloading

Hence I wrote the small script which downloads all episodes of both series my wife wants to watch, marks them as downloaded (stores a .json file for each saved file with information about what was used as mpd, the key, ...) and moves them to an appropriate folder.

Regardings your links: the "hardware"-link seems to have the same decryption key - it is just the url which differs, and the token for validation is different. Guess one would have to check what an android app (some rtl now or so?) app produces of network traffic ... But as my wife is fine with 576p (cheesy daily soap ) I am fine for now

Like I said some series don't have 720p/1080p in browser. Ofcourse for nonsense like gute Zeiten schlechte Zeiten they use the same keys.

I use my own code I don't care for other code.

https://plus.rtl.de/memory-of-a-killer-p_69280/video/folge-01-001-c_1739560 is L1 on android tv for example.

I also do not want to spend manual labor downloading

Me neither everything is automated lol i just need to type in the url or put them in urls.txt and everything gets done.

I also believe RTL+ is not finished yet because this site is full of bugs.

When opening this link it asks me to buy a "premium package". Source file marks it classified as "video_tv_premium" - guess you are not supposed to get keys without subscription/account then? (they still tell the clip ID and other stuff)

This is more "generic question" - as handing out "keys" for something you normally could not download/watch might be something different than just providing a shortcut to something else being "freely available".
(so to say: retrieving the codes locally with your account credentials and use it to automate downloading would be less "questionable").

RTL Changes: Yes, I tried my tool yesterday and it for a moment did not work, I tried to debug, it did not return something it supposed to return - tried to adopt for it but their code already changed back to "works again". Will have to add a notifier to my script then ... informing me visually if something fails (I do not want to manually check if "that week's episodes" ... so she could binge watch them on a spare morning once a month).

Thanks for the insights, guess we (read "I") should stop derailing the thread so people could come here to ask for keys...

https://plus.rtl.de/alles-was-zahlt-p_11229/video/ich-mach-dich-fertig-c_1943948 is available in HD on the old akamaihd.net server. However, I am having problems finding the keys. Is the PSSH identical with the new bedrock server?

Yes you need Widevine L1 or Playready. I was able to get FHD keys with a Playready SL3000 CDM.

is there a way to still get to these HD links manually without a subscription?

For yesterday's Wer wird Millionär for example the SD link is as follows:
Code:
https://origin.vod.rtlde.bedrock.tech/rtlde/output/c/0/6/c06d99e36809289e57f8c96d41c2a84d132fd36a/static/1926696_373fcf45ce011f63e8c0d1a9a10c2acd_web_dash_upTo576p_576p_vbr_cae_drm_software.mpd
but editing the "upTo576p_576p" part alone doesn't work for me.
