How to find m3u8 really?

[Bekkeh]

Sometimes I can't find them in network, some people say they are always there, but its about "experience". Can some of you more experienced people here, give me some tip, on how to actually find the hidden m3u8 links when the usual search doesn't work?

I just search on either mp4 or m3u8.

Press F12 in your browser to start Developer Tools and set it to the Network tab. Back in the main browser windows (re)load the page and play the video. The m3u8 URL will show up in the network traffic.

Note that not all streaming video will use an m3u8 file. Some will use mpd, mp4, etc.

Yeah. But one of my friends said that there is always a m3u8 link in all vidoes, but that they are hidden.

I have tried with mp4, mpd, m3u8.

I get something called VTT. But it seems to be image links only.

there's a Firefox addon called the stream detector - https://www.videohelp.com/software/The-Stream-Detector
that will find the m3u8 stream.

I just installed that the second before your post, and it just gives me VTT files, with img at the end.

VTT, Web Video Text Tracks, are subtitles.
