Download encrypted m3u8 with available key

[ao8vofa8usibfd]

Hi everyone,

I have been trying to download this video by using different tools

https://deswowa3player.akamaized.net/vsgtv/_definst_/assets13/2016/11/27/B588736C-DB0F-460D-810F-CE23D7419E33/es.smil/chunklist_b1348000.m3u8

I have tried using ffmpeg:

ffmpeg -i https://deswowa3player.akamaized.net/vsgtv/_definst_/assets13/2016/11/27/B588736C-DB0F-460D-810F-CE23D7419E33/es.smil/chunklist_b1348000.m3u8 -c copy test.mkv

Also using youtube-dl:

youtube-dl https://deswowa3player.akamaized.net/vsgtv/_definst_/assets13/2016/11/27/B588736C-DB0F-460D-810F-CE23D7419E33/es.smil/chunklist_b1348000.m3u8

But I get the following error everytime:

[generic] chunklist_b1348000: Requesting header
[generic] chunklist_b1348000: Downloading m3u8 information

ERROR: ffmpeg exited with code 1

VLS is also unable to stream it. It can load the metadata as I see the correct video length, but that's it.

This playlist contains the key #EXT-X-KEY:METHOD=AES-128,URI="http://pulse.atresplayer.com/key.php" but still, it cannot download the video data. I thought that as long as the playlist contains where to get the key from, crypto could do its job.

Am I mistaken? Is there any way to correctly obtain and decrypt the video so that it can be played with, say, VLC?

Thank you very much in advance!

[lomero]

you forgot to write original video link...

[ao8vofa8usibfd]

you forgot to write original video link...

What do you mean? Is "https://deswowa3player.akamaized.net/vsgtv/_definst_/assets13/2016/11/27/B588736C-DB0F-460D-810F-CE23D7419E33/es.smil/chunklist_b1348000.m3u8" not the original link? Or maybe you mean where the video is posted to be accessible?

In the latter case, that content is supposed to be "premium" so I can only access it with my account. I managed to get this playlist link after logging in my account and retrieving the video data. That's the playlist of the highest resolution of that video available in the platform.

Edit: I will include the link to the platform either way:

https://www.atresplayer.com/neox/programas/homo-zapping/temporada-1/capitulo-100-programa-100_5ad49c1d7ed1a84c934af05b/

, but I think it's impossible to retrieve the playlists unless you are premium.

[lomero]

yes, i mean this link https://www.atresplayer.com/neox..........
but, as you say, is only with premium access. then either provide the keys to access, or how can you hope for help from other users?
anyway don't post here your login credentials ...

[LZAA]

Need access.

[ao8vofa8usibfd]

This is the data you guys need. In this JSON structure you will see a sources array with the original untouched playlists. The m3u8 I provided comes from either the first [0] or third [2] source. I don't exactly remember now. What I do is parse the playlist and obtain all the different resolutions. I gave you guys the best resolution for this episode, around 500p.

      "type": "application/dashvo+xml"
    }

The problem I am having is that: I want the tool I'm coding to read the m3u8 files, get all the playlists individually -if you download the playlists with a browser and open the m3u8 file with a text editor you will see what I mean so that I can arrange them in different qualities and offer the user the individual links -again, extracted from the original m3u8 file-.

Example of this file:

#EXTM3U
#EXT-X-VERSION:3
#EXT-X-STREAM-INF:BANDWIDTH=712800,CODECS="avc1.77.31,mp4a.40.5",RESOLUTION=720x404,SUBTITLES="subt"
chunklist_b648000.m3u8?pulse=assets13%2F2016%2F11%2F27%2FB588736C-DB0F-460D-810F-CE23D7419E33%2F%7C1614092400%7Ce9962fae57be412346fdef74bb2228f1
#EXT-X-STREAM-INF:BANDWIDTH=1042800,CODECS="avc1.77.31,mp4a.40.5",RESOLUTION=720x404,SUBTITLES="subt"
chunklist_b948000.m3u8?pulse=assets13%2F2016%2F11%2F27%2FB588736C-DB0F-460D-810F-CE23D7419E33%2F%7C1614092400%7Ce9962fae57be412346fdef74bb2228f1
#EXT-X-STREAM-INF:BANDWIDTH=1482800,CODECS="avc1.77.31,mp4a.40.5",RESOLUTION=720x404,SUBTITLES="subt"
chunklist_b1348000.m3u8?pulse=assets13%2F2016%2F11%2F27%2FB588736C-DB0F-460D-810F-CE23D7419E33%2F%7C1614092400%7Ce9962fae57be412346fdef74bb2228f1
#EXT-X-MEDIA:TYPE=SUBTITLES,GROUP-ID="subt",LANGUAGE="es",NAME="Spanish",DEFAULT=YES,URI="../vtt/es_subt.vtt"

I can download the episode no problem from the sources directly, what I want to do is to be able to download the episode by providing only the m3u8 url that has been extracted from the original one.

Every time I try to do that, it does not work, but what I have noticed is that, when I download from the source and then I try the extracted link, then the download is successful!

How can that be?

[ao8vofa8usibfd]

Here's another example:

Try to download the following extracted playlist:

https://deswowa3player.akamaized.net/vsgtv/_definst_/assets13/2016/11/27/75257449-FA8A-494B-9708-821A0A663ED6/es.smil/chunklist_b1348000.m3u8?pulse=assets13%2F2016%2F11%2F27%2F75257449-FA8A-494B-9708-821A0A663ED6%2F%7C1614096000%7Cebd05db04ea571e998c0e63589c0cf39

I'm not sure if I understand you correctly. But https://deswowa3player.akamaized.net/vsgtv/_definst_/assets13/2016/11/27/75257449-FA8A...c0e63589c0cf39
can be downloaded without any problem because the URL to the key is valid. It is clearkey, I think. N_m3u8DL can download it. Try it yourself. You'll see it can be downloaded.
https://github.com/nilaoda/N_m3u8DL-CLI/releases/tag/2.9.5

[lomero]

why use N_m3u8DL that yt-dl can't do? or ffmpeg...

[hvq]

It can also download encrypted mpd's. Can one of the tools you named do that? And I don't mean the modified version of yt-dl. But for this here he can also use yt-dl, streamlink or ffmpeg... It will work.

https://github.com/nilaoda/N_m3u8DL-CLI/releases/tag/2.9.5

I do not have Windows so unfortunately I cannot test that... And the script I'm building I want it to run in Unix systems.

What I was trying to explain is:

Sources contain URLS ending with playlist.m3u8, but those playlists can contain multiple other playlists inside, called chunklist_[0-9]{n}.m3u8. What I want to offer my users is a list of all the resolutions available. For that I download and parse the playlist.m3u8 to get all the chunklist_[0-9]{n}.m3u8

If I first download playlist.m3u8, then all the chunklist_[0-9]{n}.m3u8 can be downloaded without problems. But if I get a random episode and directly try to download the chunklist_[0-9]{n}.m3u8, then I get error. If I first download the playlist.m3u8 it looks like then I can download chunklist_[0-9]{n}.m3u8 with no issues. Of course that's a problem, because I offer my users the chunklist_[0-9]{n}.m3u8 and not the playlist.m3u8, so when they want to download the chunklist_[0-9]{n}.m3u8, it gives errors.

[ao8vofa8usibfd]

Now I cannot seem to be able to download a few episodes in a row... can you guys get any of those?
