  1. Hi all,
    Audible is giving away access to kid's stories while the schools are closed, wanted to download so I don't need to stream it every time and I could take the audio with me if I go off line.

    The link is https://stories.audible.com/start-listen

    For example Winnie-the-Pooh story is at https://stories.audible.com/pdp/B002V1BPOQ?ref=adbl_ent_anon_ds_pdp_pc_cntr-0-0

    I tried YouTubeDL and streamlink defaults but no luck, the URL is not recognized.

    Then I tired to go by m3u8 but I get 403 Forbidden error. I tired to include referer link but that didn't work either.

    Code:
    youtube-dl --referer="https://stories.audible.com/pdp/B002V1BPOQ?ref=adbl_ent_anon_ds_pdp_pc_cntr-0-0" "https://audiblecdns3prod-vh.akamaihd.net/i/295894/audiblewords/content/bk/blak/000838/V$252555$V/aax/bk_blak_000838_22_32.mp4/master.m3u8"
    Can anyone shine some light on it?

  2. youtube-dl worked for me. You have to get an m3u8 link from a browser's devoloper tools.

    Code:
    youtube-dl "https://audiblecdns3prod-vh.akamaihd.net/i/295894/audiblewords/content/bk/blak/000838/V$252555$V/aax/bk_blak_000838_22_32.mp4/master.m3u8?hdnea=st=1585613430~exp=1585613490~acl=/i/295894/audiblewords/content/bk/blak/000838/V$252555$V/aax/bk_blak_000838_22_32.mp4/*~hmac=4ef97b8ddaf4c014efe35edbfccea55ab1da0e9a218806d851032342142b9884"
    The link may change occasionally so you may need to get a fresh one.

  3. YouTubeDL works. Before I tried to use the link but cut the part after m3u8, stupid me.

    YouTubeDL works when I put the link as "link" bit doesn't when it goes without "". I am sure there is an explanation somewhere but I couldn't find it.

    Many thanks.

    Can you post the exact two youtube-dl codes ("works when I put the link as "link" bit doesn't when it goes without").
    I can only see by exact examples.
    Thank you.

  5. Sometimes the command line interpreter will add spaces with certain characters in a URL if there are no quotes around it.

  6. This one worked

    Code:

    This one didn't work

    Code:
    youtube-dl https://audiblecdns3prod-vh.akamaihd.net/i/295894/audiblewords/content/bk/blak/000838/V$252555$V/aax/bk_blak_000838_22_32.mp4/master.m3u8?hdnea=st=1585613430~exp=1585613490~acl=/i/295894/audiblewords/content/bk/blak/000838/V$252555$V/aax/bk_blak_000838_22_32.mp4/*~hmac=4ef97b8ddaf4c014efe35edbfccea55ab1da0e9a218806d851032342142b9884

    I tried one after another with a few seconds in between tries.

    Hello the link expires very fast i think +- 60 seconds so you need to get a fresh m3u8 link and download it right away get the m3u8 link and paste it in TVDownloader and it will download or use youtube-dl make sure you have ffmpeg installed example command >> youtube-dl.exe -f best "https://audiblecdns3prod-vh.akamaihd.net/i/295891/audiblewords/content/bk/schc/001459/V$3666271$V/files/bk_schc_001459_22_32.mp4/master.m3u8?hdnea=st=1600684633~exp=1600684693~acl =/i/295891/audiblewords/content/bk/schc/001459/V$3666271$V/files/bk_schc_001459_22_32.mp4/*~hmac=f0b5e96b74a2ee220fb96b3e61b18aee5f90f0399b5 9a355f895555ce671a16f" and it will download without errors tested and worked with both methods i suggest TVDownloader so you need to only provide the m3u8 link goodluck
