Can anyone help me with downloading shorts from DisneyNow?

[videolover675]

For the past few months, I have been using the WidevineProxy2 extension on Microsoft Edge to generate the command for N_m3u8DL-RE to download full episodes of shows from DisneyNow, but it doesn't seem to work for shorts, or 2-minute videos. I am trying to start with these:

https://disneynow.com/video/77fc9740-157d-403f-923d-c39d92201db7/playlist/PL554083840

https://disneynow.com/video/95d55cca-02bb-4a31-91e2-87bea89c3217/playlist/PL554083840

If anyone can suggest how I can download these and other shorts, I would really appreciate it.

Much appreciated, but I would like to download more of them myself. This app called yt-dlp doesn't seem to work for me either because it keeps giving me this:

"Unable to download JSON metadata: HTTP Error 503: Service Unavailable (caused by <HTTPError 503: Service Unavailable>)"

I have to ask: how do YOU go about getting them?

You are using YT-dlp, had the same issue

Thats the master URL:

Master URL: https://cmp-dge.media.dssott.com/opp/cmaf/ge/dc/2026/02/25/11020587_1/11020587_1/playlist.m3u8

The N_m3u8 command:

N_m3u8DL-RE.exe "https://cmp-dge.media.dssott.com/opp/cmaf/ge/dc/2026/02/25/11020587_1/11020587_1/playlist.m3u8" --auto-select -H "Origin: https://disneynow.com" -H "Referer: https://disneynow.com/" -H "User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/149.0.0.0 Safari/537.36" --save-name "LeBron and Zhuri James Watch Cartoonified with Phineas And Ferb" -M format=mp4

You will get the file by :

yt-dlp "https://cmp-dge.media.dssott.com/opp/cmaf/ge/dc/2026/02/25/11020587_1/11020587_1/playlist.m3u8"

So how does one go about to get the Master URL in the first place?

Click inspect element in the right click menu, then head to Network, then hit play on the video. You should be able to filter using the keyword "m3u8" and be able to find it
