Could you help me download this vid, please?

[therain]

Can you help me to download this with ffmpeg please? (command line)

https://www.france.tv/france-5/la-maison-france-5/1085543-la-maison-france-5.html

ffmpeg -i "master.m3u8" -c copy test.ts

[jagabo]

Use a browser's Developer Tools to get an m3u8 URL then use an ffmpeg command line like the one in post #23.

[WazaKrash]

Ok, it worked. I downloaded the video

[WazaKrash]

Hello everyone, I'm trying to find the m3u8 link of this video : https://www.france.tv/france-5/la-maison-france-5/1096695-la-maison-france-5.html

But all I can found is a replayftv-vh.akamaihd link with a lot of "%3A%2F%2", it's inexploitable

could you help me, pls?

You need to get fresh values and you can use Firefox or chrome with "Download video helper" plugin to get the m3u8 url

It's here and try with ffmpeg

https://replayftv-vh.akamaihd.net/i/streaming-adaptatif/2019/S45/J5/216241825-5dc5dd5f5bcfd-,standard1,standard2,standard3,standard4,.mp4.csmil/index_3_av.m3u8?null=0

[WazaKrash]

Thank you

and what is "fresh values" ?

[jagabo]

The URL may change periodically. So you may need to get a "fresh" URL. He told you one way of getting it:

Firefox or chrome with "Download video helper"

[WazaKrash]

Ok thanks

[abolibibelot]

All available stream links for this program are on this page (including transcripts / subtitles) :
http://sivideo.webservices.francetelevisions.fr/tools/getInfosOeuvre/v2/?idDiffusion=c...0-8311efa570bf
(For another video, copy the link up until "idDiffusion=" and replace the code by the one in the original page's source code, search for "videoId", or use a network analyser like URL Snooper.)

But all I can found is a replayftv-vh.akamaihd link with a lot of "%3A%2F%2", it's inexploitable

With Notepad2 you can quickly decipher this :
Edit => Special => URL decode
Usually you only need a part of such a composed link, beginning with "http" and ending with "m3u8".

Or you can use youtube-dl, or JDownloader, or Captvty :
http://captvty.fr/
Captvty fetches the links automatically for most french "catch-up TV" services, including France 5, but the inconvenient for FranceTV videos is that they are downloaded in TS format, so you have to convert them to MP4 afterward for a more fluid playback. With ffmpeg or youtube-dl (and also JDownloader last time I checked, as it relies on ffmpeg under-the-hood), you can directly download the stream as MP4.

Firefox or chrome with "Download video helper"

Download Helper can be used to easily fetch the links, but it has become a PITA to actually downlad them...

[abolibibelot]

(from page 1)

I already put C:\ffmpeg\bin in path but it's still not working.

If a CLI program is not in the path you can still use it by typing or copying its complete, well, path :

"C:\ffmpeg\bin\ffmpeg.exe" -i whatever...

Or you can browse to its location using the CD command :

CD "C:\ffmpeg\bin"

Or, a little known trick which I discovered on this forum, you can browse to its location in Windows Explorer, up until its parent folder ("C:\ffmpeg\" in this case), then on the actual folder where the .exe file is located, do SHIFT + right-click, which will add an option in the context menu to "Open a command prompt here" (or since you seem to be french : "Ouvrir une fenêtre de commandes ici"), which will open cmd.exe with the path already set to the location of the program in question, and from there you can type the name of the command without the path or the .exe extension.

Question : why were the download links removed on page 1 ?

[jagabo]

Just on a lark, I tried therain's url in post #35 and it still works.

ffmpeg -i https://replayftv-vh.akamaihd.net/i/streaming-adaptatif/2019/S45/J5/216241825-5dc5dd5f5bcfd-,standard1,standard2,standard3,standard4,.mp4.csmil/index_3_av.m3u8?null=0 -codec copy output.ts

[WazaKrash]

I know it's irritating but again I had trouble to download from france.tv, I'm trying to use the m3u8 links and donwload the vids with ffmpeg
Here is the links
https://www.france.tv/france-5/la-maison-france-5/1201857-la-maison-france-5.html

and https://la1ere.francetvinfo.fr/reunion/emissions/archipels-4
(the video is called "La malediction du clan Catherine")

For the first link, I'm using Http trace + chrome to find the m3u8 link (I'm not using firefox since a long time ago because I had trouble with it), this is what I found :

https://notify.bugsnag.com/js?notifierVersion=2.5.0&apiKey=8b7816ec573ca40bb9ec856f646...=1581341686229

Of course that link is not working with ffmpeg. Anyone can help me please?

abolibibelot : thanks for your comments, I know Captvty, I'm using it from time to time but it's annoying, sometimes it download perfectly the videos and sometimes you have only
the sound or it's impossible to download anything. It's hazardous and you don't know when they will solve the problem and make an upgrade.
For example I tried to download La maison France 5 right now, and it's not working while some days ago it was possible.

For someone like me who is so bad with data processing, Captvty was a good help before but now it's problematic ^^"

The m3u8 URL changes periodically. You need to get a fresh one. I explained how.

[WazaKrash]

All I got is the same link as yours but with %

example : https%3A%2F%2Fcloudreplayfrancetv.akamaized.net%2F cb0d3786dd3e5%2F222426407_monde_TA.ism%2Fmaster.m3 u8&metaData%5BgroupingHash%5D=sendBinaryMissedData %20failed%20while%20data%20channel%20open&releaseS tage=production&appVersion=1.13.0&url

I don't understand why I don't get a good m3u8 url, Http trace and chrome can't find those?

This is the m3u8 >> https://cloudreplayfrancetv.akamaized.net/cb0d3786dd3e52F222426407_monde_TA.ism/master.m3u8
But there should be a easy way to get the m3u8 url's like some extension to get the m3u8 url's give me some links and i will look at them

[WazaKrash]

ChezBompaLawijt here it is : https://www.france.tv/france-5/la-maison-france-5/1201857-la-maison-france-5.html

The extension I'm using is Http trace, it should logically find the m3u8 but I can't understand why the links contain so much "%%"

Ok so i looked a bit into it and with HLS Downloader on Google Chrome it gives me the m3u8 url but only on some video's it works on the video above ^^ but not on all video's i think other videos got some protection https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/hls-downloader/apomkbibleomoihlhhdbeghnfioffbej?hl=nl it also works with videodownloadhelper but again not on all video's >> https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/video-downloadhelper/lmjnegcaeklhafolokijcfj...iaokphfk?hl=nl good luck

Hi WazaKrash ,

TUTO about % :

Open

https://www.nicolas-hoffmann.net/utilitaires/codes-hexas-ascii-unicode-utf8-caracteres-usuels.php

look column "code hexa"
search %3a
on the same line read on the right ( column 'en clair' ) , this gives you ':' .

example :

https%3A%2F%2Fcloudreplayfrancetv.akamaized.net%2Fcb0d3786dd3e5%2F222426407_monde_TA.ism%2Fmaster.m3u8

[WazaKrash]

aazerty, thank you, this is really useful, so Idk why but my laptop or http trace/chrome use only unicode when I'm looking for m3u8, this is strange but your link
will help me.

Guys I know that it's annoying but this is the last time, I won't need it anymore but I can't download their new video :
https://www.france.tv/france-5/la-maison-france-5/1222477-la-maison-france-5.html
edit : for both in fact... https://www.france.tv/france-5/la-maison-france-5/1201857-la-maison-france-5.html

edit2 : I thought that I downloaded the vid by myself and when I checked, it was only the audio... damn it


This is like there is a protection, I find some TS link but it's useless with ffmpeg.

So for the last time, can someone help me to find the m3u8 links?

read my comments..... i gave you 2 extensions wich downloads these video's... very easy and simple.....

[WazaKrash]

HLS downloader said "Sorry, I wasn't able to find any HTTP live streams" and Video downloadhelper can't find the vids too
That's why I'm asking for help a last time

With Http trace and ffmpeg, I can find the m3u8 of others videos from the same site (of course after I remove the %%) but for the two links I gave you, I can't.

[ChezBompaLawijt]

[hvq]

By using streamlink you can download or stream the m3u8 file.
