Thank you iamghost.

Hi, I am still on version 2.0.0. Last week it worked fine, but pluto tv isn't working as I see you've been talking about. I see for this command it's showing the right show:

C:\Users\user\unshackle>"C:\Users\user\unshackle\. venv\Scripts\python.exe" -m unshackle dl --list-titles PLUTO "/series/680aa663afe56ba72ed352b1/details"

Any suggestions? Thanks.

My bookmarks for Pluto reset themselves again to not point at the On Demand. But I used the search that iamghost wrote about and that found me the url I needed for what show I am currently trying to archive.

Does anyone have the "Bonus tip" working in the DSCP service that stabbedbybrick had added as an easter egg for 5.3?

I do on version 4.0 still, but it does not on 5.3 at all.

Actually did find a working service for this. So never mind actually.

[Tom Saurus]

Maybe I need a better VPN as Pluto TV On Demand disappears instantly and now it is Italian. Even when I do the search it is spitting out Italian.

I am back search is working again for me getting the Tubi US.

[billybanana]

I have fresh cookies for un-named service. Can anyone PM me to help with this error ?
"This title is not available to watch instantly. Please try another title. - 1044"

Nevermind I got it mostly working playing with the sticks and stones of VT.

[YmFzZTY0]

1044 for that particular service is device not supported

I want to second this! I am new to using this program and spent most of the night trying to find the correct link for a program.

My problem now is that my vaults are 0/0 and I am now realizing I am missing the important Playready and Widevine DRM files. Every time I go to use Pluto, I am told it is has the wrong DRM and no vaults present.

I pushed out a small update to NINE that adds direct http(s) mp4 detection for some videos. They tend to have a higher bitrate than HLS. DASH will still follow the existing logic for protected videos.

https://github.com/billybanana80/unshackle-services/tree/master/NINE

BTW I've now archived my Unshackle services repo and will concentrate my efforts on Ozivine and Eurovine.

Never used StabbedByBrick's ALL4 service before but not having much luck. Trying this:

        An unexpected error occurred in one of the download workers.

ValueError: Title needs a Widevine CDM but ALL4 is configured with PlayReady.

Am I missing something obvious? Some kind of Widevine setup I need to do?

EDIT: Never mind, realised I was missing CDM setup, the error message is just a bit confusing as it implies the service isn't configured correctly.

What is the best way to update Unshackle. Is it still back up your .yaml and use:

git pull

uv snyc

Thanks in advance.

Add yaml to gitignore to be super safe

[Tom Saurus]

It is always good to have your up to date .yaml backed up somewhere else just in case as well.

My Unshackle is buried deep and isn't part of git anymore:

Can this "search" feature also be used with envied? as I am having trouble finding the url of a particular movie. I can play the movie within chrome or firefox, but stream detector only shows me an mpd item.

movie in question:https://pluto.tv/gb_ie/movies/6448edc9dd38b4001a8dd813/#open

I have already attempted uv run envied dl PLUTO https://pluto.tv/gb_ie/movies/6448edc9dd38b4001a8dd813/ (both with and without the "/" and both give an error, with part of the error stating

:138 │ │ except Exception: │
│ ❱ 139 │ │ │ raise ValueError("Could not parse ID from title - is the U │
│ 140 │ │ │
│ 141 │ │ if kind == "series" and episode_id: │
│ 142 │ │ │ r = self.session.get(self.config["endpoints"]["series"].fo

Im guessing that error is telling me that I have not added the correct url for the movie in question.


I attempted it:

and envied kind of worked, I received this back:


The Trench movie
id: /movies/6448edc9dd38b4001a8dd813/details

World War I in the Trenches series
id: /series/68d150ee83275eb994ee8aea/details

Beyond the Reach movie
id: /movies/69382439779bf41d1dbe02c9/details

Sadly, thats as far as i got.

I'm really sorry for posting this chaps... my apologies for wasting peoples time. I managed to work it out:

Archived, now, never to be updated, so as the services change their API, you will have to be able to debug and make amendments yourself.

We are hopeful that stabbedbybrick will be back and find his passion again. Regardless stabbedbybrick is a smart person and he has the gratitude of many of us from when he got Freevine going and then we migrated to Devine and then to Unshackle. I especially appreciate what he did with the Pluto service. Back in the Freevine days he figured out how to remedy what is referred to as bumpers which was causing lip sync issues with some of the downloaded files.

I am going to rely on Twinvine specifically Envied for awhile. I did a git pull of Unshackle a few months back and the process seemed to work but the version number never changed to the version I was upgrading to. So I deleted Unshackle and went to Github and used that "tool git pull" as that was the only way available as the other way is not there anymore. I prefer a folder in my C: drive to hold most of the program. Now it buried deep and I think I will not delete it and start over as parts of Unshackle are here and there. Envied is working fine and Unshackle may work as well for awhile longer when it doesn't work I will cross that bridge when I come to it. But I am big fan of how Angela has laid out the instructions on how to set up Twinvine and it is impressive. Unshackle is obviously impressive as well and thankfully Twinvine is evolving along with Unshackle.

Someone sent me a PM to help with Unshackle. They wanted to get something from SEVEN. It has been quite a while since I checked out SEVEN as I have been busy with other services. I do have an account and I do have Export Cookie installed. I put my credentials into my .yaml. But I put them in after I had already exported a .txt cookie after signing in at SEVEN. I exported the cookie to my cookie folder in Unshackle and renamed it SEVEN.

I tried to do a list for a TV show and Unshackle put up this error. Then I thought maybe I better put my credentials into the .yaml and maybe that will remedy this error and it didn't. I appreciate any advice on this issue.

Someone sent me a PM to help with Unshackle. They wanted to get something from SEVEN. It has been quite a while since I checked out SEVEN as I have been busy with other services. I do have an account and I do have Export Cookie installed. I put my credentials into my .yaml. But I put them in after I had already exported a .txt cookie after signing in at SEVEN. I exported the cookie to my cookie folder in Unshackle and renamed it SEVEN.

I tried to do a list for a TV show and Unshackle put up this error. Then I thought maybe I better put my credentials into the .yaml and maybe that will remedy this error and it didn't. I appreciate any advice on this issue.

Truncated your post to save space in my reply. Tom Saurus what browser are you using and extension to export your cookies? I had the same issue as you, hadn't tried SEVEN in a while, but when I tried I had the same issue:

Figured out an got it working as I had been using Chrome. I guess maybe I have too many extensions causing an issue.

So I tried Firefox and used "Export Cookies" extension, this output .txt allowed it seems 1 additional record/line. Due to this, replaced the .txt cookie file SEVEN reads from, and it worked right away:

I was using the Firefox browser and the addon related to this Github page:

https://github.com/rotemdan/ExportCookies

I usually disable and only turn it back on when I need it. You did the right thing truncating my post; I was too thorough in posting that code. It should be working and I am puzzled as to why it isn't. I am glad you got it working. If I remember I stepped away from using Seven as it was particularly sensitive to my VPN and for U.S. series there was the issue where they encoded it to the frame rate and such for Australia and the UK and this results in a noticeable speed up in how fast people are talking. There is of course a way to compensate for that with some settings in VLC but I reasoned that media players and blu ray players don't have these options and re-encoding can cause issues; so stay away from videos like that have been adapted from NTSC to Pal became my policy. I have no problem with videos that are originally PAL as the people are talking at the typical speed.

I forgot to say thank you for your post. Maybe I will re-install the add on or try another one. Maybe it has something to do with my VPN set in Stealth mode which I am finding currently helps with me downloading more videos before something happens and the downloading fails. SEVEN is very slow for me was well; my DSL maxes out at 10 mbps.

I tried another cookie add on and another failure. Then I went back to export cookies. I generated a cookie for CBC and that worked fine on listing the episodes of a series. I tried again with SEVEN and failure again. It must be some configuration I have wrong for SEVEN. I won't be able to help that person who PM me. I told them about my intention on raising the issue here so maybe they can figure it out from information in this thread for Unshackle.
