[ehurdler]

Still no luck. Any help would be appreciated. I can find mpd buts that's it. I haven't been on here since 21 and that was for the last Olympics and '16 before that so im rusty and don't know all the new techniques. Just need help with this then Ill see you again in 4 years. haha

can use this link as example:

https://stream.nbcolympics.com/track-and-field-us-olympic-team-trials-day-10

What have you tried? I pointed you to a few good posts.

You can also grab a cdm from here and try.

Yeah I’ve read through it. I thought I had it figured out. Feel like I have the right mpd and key. And even got it to download but when I play the finished file it’s just a green screen. I guess things aren’t as straightforward as they used be. I appreciate everybody trying to help but I guess I won’t be able to rip this time. I don’t have the time like I use to troubleshoot and find a solution. If I really want them, I’ll just use a capture card and drm stripping splitter but that’s real time recordings that I don’t really have free time for anyways . Thanks tho. Ps. Just. Think it’s funny I can pretty rip anything else like tv shows and movies that have a big after market to make income but make the Olympics so difficult when they virtually have no value after initial airing. Plus the majority of the events don’t make network tv. It literally a free streaming service and the Olympics are tax payer funded. Oh well.

Hi, I'm also trying to save the NBC Olympic Replays and am new to DRM. I have been reviewing the stickies in this forum and have been able to decrypt this video, however, I believe I am experiencing an issue during play back because it is a multi-period MPD. The video is playable, but whenever the video reaches a time where an advertisement was to be inserted, the video freezes while the audio continues.

Any advice about how to best process this video would be greatly appreciated. I am not opposed to including the ads in the video if that is a more straight forward process.

You can see that the video consists of 13 parts, the primary video with DRM and 12 ads without DRM.

yt-dlp --list-formats --allow-unplayable-formats "https://d32eb54f6044433e841272aa4bf4984a.mediatailor.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/v1/dash/7f34bf1814de6fddce84b1e6c296b7a70243b88f/oneapp-atp-dash-vod-2s-generic/pub/global/FER/991/c69/202407/991c69a7-7a9c-5b12-80e1-e660b6568796/nbcdtc12000244-ctr/master.mpd?aws.sessionId=8b74a75a-2b49-4090-b2bc-edec02e5f67f"

Using the lowest bitrate as an example, save the encrypted primary video.

yt-dlp -f 1722144376062item-01item-1 --allow-unplayable-formats -o encrypted_video.mp4 "https://d32eb54f6044433e841272aa4bf4984a.mediatailor.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/v1/dash/7f34bf1814de6fddce84b1e6c296b7a70243b88f/oneapp-atp-dash-vod-2s-generic/pub/global/FER/991/c69/202407/991c69a7-7a9c-5b12-80e1-e660b6568796/nbcdtc12000244-ctr/master.mpd?aws.sessionId=8b74a75a-2b49-4090-b2bc-edec02e5f67f"

Save the encrypted primary audio.

yt-dlp -f 1722144376062item-07item-12 --allow-unplayable-formats -o encrypted_audio.m4a "https://d32eb54f6044433e841272aa4bf4984a.mediatailor.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/v1/dash/7f34bf1814de6fddce84b1e6c296b7a70243b88f/oneapp-atp-dash-vod-2s-generic/pub/global/FER/991/c69/202407/991c69a7-7a9c-5b12-80e1-e660b6568796/nbcdtc12000244-ctr/master.mpd?aws.sessionId=8b74a75a-2b49-4090-b2bc-edec02e5f67f"

Decrypt the primary video.

mp4decrypt --key ed43c4a5606536e5a788bb2132a007e9:94f0e4059012f2da0270c4a2fcefa07f encrypted_video.mp4 decrypted_video.mp4

Decrypt the primary audio.

mp4decrypt --key ed43c4a5606536e5a788bb2132a007e9:94f0e4059012f2da0270c4a2fcefa07f encrypted_audio.m4a decrypted_audio.m4a

Merge the decrypted video and audio.

ffmpeg -i decrypted_video.mp4 -i decrypted_audio.m4a -vcodec copy -acodec copy myWatchableMovie.mp4

I tried using N_m3u8DL-RE as well, but the resulting video appears to still be encrypted. During processing, N_m3u8DL-RE warns of potential incorrect timestamps in the output file due to Non-monotonic DTS.

I received a similarly looking video using hell3.py, which is to be expected as I believe the commands are the same.
https://forum.videohelp.com/threads/415090-All-Hell-Let-Loose%21

I also tried using N_m3u8DL-RE with the output set to mp4 format rather than mkv, but the resulting video looked the same as the previous two videos processed with N_m3u8DL-RE.

--key ed43c4a5606536e5a788bb2132a007e9:94f0e4059012f2da0270c4a2fcefa07f

Thanks so much. I’m still not sure how the key is found or produced. It’s like to rip some other streams and don’t want to bother yall everytime I need a key. If you can help me to find the key for what stream I’d really appreciate it but if to much to explain I understand. And where do you insert the pssh in the command line

I also tried using N_M3U8DL-RE with the output set to mp4 format rather than mkv, but the resulting video looked the same as the previous two videos processed with N_M3U8DL-RE.

I actually know the answer to this one. NBC/USA/CNBC/etc. that have commercials have issues when using N-m3udl-re. While you might try using "--ad-keyword atp", it will strip the ads, but not decrypt it.
You need to manually delete them.
Do this by downloading the master.mpd file. It's in an XML format and you need to manually delete the content between the Period Duration tags where the BaseURL is "https://vod-lf-oneapp-prd.akamaized.net/atp/"

For example the first one to be deleted from this one is:

    <Period duration="PT30.03S" id="1359_PT0S_0" start="PT0S">
        <BaseURL>https://vod-lf-oneapp-prd.akamaized.net/atp/7c0c1d2f-8802-403b-a0f3-42c2488e77cc/cmaf_2s/</BaseURL>

Then upload it to somewhere you can link download it with N_M3U8DL-RE. Like here on VideoHelp: https://files.videohelp.com/u/107659/beach-volleyball-pool-play-match-7.mpd
This should work:

N_M3U8DL-RE -M format=mp4 -sv best -sa best "https://files.videohelp.com/u/107659/beach-volleyball-pool-play-match-7.mpd" --key ed43c4a5606536e5a788bb2132a007e9:94f0e4059012f2da0270c4a2fcefa07f -mt --save-name "beach-volleyball-pool-play-match-7"

I'd definitely keep it .MP4 since there always seems to be timing issues generated by the commercials being removed and .MP4 seems to handle it better in my experience.

I added -mt so it downloads the audio and video simultaneously and -sv and -sa so you don't have to manually choose the quality (you can delete it if you don't want the best).

Hi, I'm also trying to save the NBC Olympic Replays and am new to DRM. I have been reviewing the stickies in this forum and have been able to decrypt this video, however, I believe I am experiencing an issue during play back because it is a multi-period MPD. The video is playable, but whenever the video reaches a time where an advertisement was to be inserted, the video freezes while the audio continues.

Any advice about how to best process this video would be greatly appreciated. I am not opposed to including the ads in the video if that is a more straight forward process.

You can see that the video consists of 13 parts, the primary video with DRM and 12 ads without DRM.

yt-dlp --list-formats --allow-unplayable-formats "https://d32eb54f6044433e841272aa4bf4984a.mediatailor.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/v1/dash/7f34bf1814de6fddce84b1e6c296b7a70243b88f/oneapp-atp-dash-vod-2s-generic/pub/global/FER/991/c69/202407/991c69a7-7a9c-5b12-80e1-e660b6568796/nbcdtc12000244-ctr/master.mpd?aws.sessionId=8b74a75a-2b49-4090-b2bc-edec02e5f67f"

Using the lowest bitrate as an example, save the encrypted primary video.

Save the encrypted primary audio.

Decrypt the primary video.

mp4decrypt --key ed43c4a5606536e5a788bb2132a007e9:94f0e4059012f2da0270c4a2fcefa07f encrypted_video.mp4 decrypted_video.mp4

Decrypt the primary audio.

Merge the decrypted video and audio.

ffmpeg -i decrypted_video.mp4 -i decrypted_audio.m4a -vcodec copy -acodec copy myWatchableMovie.mp4

I tried using N_m3u8DL-RE as well, but the resulting video appears to still be encrypted. During processing, N_m3u8DL-RE warns of potential incorrect timestamps in the output file due to Non-monotonic DTS.

I received a similarly looking video using hell3.py, which is to be expected as I believe the commands are the same.

Not sure where you got that mpd from?

Try

Still works for me now:

N_m3u8DL-RE --key ed43c4a5606536e5a788bb2132a007e9:94f0e4059012f2da0270c4a2fcefa07f "https://vod-lf-oneapp-prd.akamaized.net/pub/global/FER/991/c69/202407/991c69a7-7a9c-5b12-80e1-e660b6568796/nbcdtc12000244-ctr/master.mpd?audio=all&subtitle=all&forcedNarrative=true" --save-name "VB event7_1" -M format=mkv

Outputs a full unencrypted mkv.

Where are you getting your mpd?

Like I said, I downloaded the MPD from the link orionsbelt posted: https://d32eb54f6044433e841272aa4bf4984a.mediatailor.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/v1/dash/7...c-edec02e5f67f
I manually edited it to delete the commercials, as I described, and then uploaded the edited version here.

Edit: Interesting. The link you posted replaces

with

which removes the ads.
I wonder if that can be manually done for other .MPD from them...

Edit 2: Yes, it does. Searching for the .MPD doesn't turn that up. Searching for vod-lf-oneapp-prd shows the segments but not an .MPD file. Getting the .MPD file and then changing that part of the link deletes ads!
Awesome!!! I'm going to be using that a lot.

Btw, you can use https://cdrm-project.com/ for keys with NBC. You just need the PSSH, the License URL (look for drmproxy.digitalsvc.apps.nbcuni.com...) and the headers.

Edit 3: I use a command line batch to grab this sort of thing. Thanks to you, ehurdler, I've added:

set mpd=%mpd:*-generic=https://vod-lf-oneapp-prd.akamaized.net%

Now the .MPD link string is modified and commercials are cut if the wrong link is used.

I am having trouble getting keys. I was able to download video with the code from ehurdler. I am trying to get this on my own. https://stream.nbcolympics.com/beach-volleyball-pool-play-match-20

Sweet!

What headers do you end up using at https://cdrm-project.com/ ?

I am only curious, not the way I have been grabbing them.

May help PennyHartz, but not sure what other processes they are trying.

PennyHartz I assume does not have python installed, looking for keys with a script, so would prob help them out.

@PennyHartz Right click and copy as cURL on the drm license link. Paste it here: https://curlconverter.com/. Copy the brackets "{'User-Agent' ... # 'TE': 'trailers',}" from headers =. Paste PSSH, license url and header into crdm-project.

[PennyHartz]

Is this the correct header

headers = {
    'sec-ch-ua': '"Not)A;Brand";v="99", "Google Chrome";v="127", "Chromium";v="127"',
    'Referer': 'https://stream.nbcolympics.com/beach-volleyball-pool-play-match-20',

And are the license time sensitive? Like they wont work unless you use them in a certain amount of time. Do they expire? haha that was the word I was looking for.

[doctorm]

Make sure you remove

headers =

and only copy paste the {...} portion.
Although, this didn't work when I tried it.

[ehurdler]

Sometimes sensitive. I would just do it when you go to the site, all together.

Again, remove "headers = "

Pretty sure you've got the wrong headers though. I had 15 headers when I tried this.
Make sure you right-click the license link (with POST + preflight) and select the 'Copy as cURL (bash)' and paste that into curlconverter.

Also, I did notice that when I played this video, my license link had a different hash than the one posted here.

[dinzul]

Try with firefox. Right click the first link with "POST" and copy as "cURL".

[Attachment 81065 - Click to enlarge]
Paste into curlconverter to get the header. I think the license are tied into "cookies".

Matches with TV network watermarks like #7 ESP-ITA or #35 BRA-ESP causes audio/video sync when it goes to commercial even using the code from ehurdler. Tried with VLC and Windows Media player. This game https://stream.nbcolympics.com/beach-volleyball-pool-play-match-35 has ad and action in split screen. Matches without TV channel logos play smooth.
Okay video now plays fine with a different computer and fresh install of players. For some reason the ads cause high cpu usage, but it is an older i5.

Hello, do you know why i have this message?

Hello, do you know why i have this message?

No, you'll have to post what headers you used, etc.

If you copied and pasted what I used maybe issue, but you'll have to show what you tried.

[daygecko]

I've read all these threads and I don't think I can do all this. They really made it nearly impossible for people to save videos for their own use, and even screen capturing is now impossible.

While widevine is much worse than what web-dl'ing used to be, the security level on these is quite low (NOT Peacock) and even chimps like me can pull it off.

A little practice and it's a piece of cake.

Also, love it or hate it, StreamFab can occasionally do the job well.

[PennyHartz]

Dnzul , doctorm, and ehurler thanks for the help. Finally got it to work about a week ago and meant to post earlier. Thanks again and see yall again in 4 years. Haha. I was also able to rip from Canadian and Spanish networks websites with a VPN. They’re easily captured with streamlink or a variety of Firefox extensions.

If you have to extract encryption keys and write python scripts to do it, I wouldn't call it easy by any means!

[doctorm]

Is anyone else having trouble logging into their cable provider with NBC/USANetwork to even play streams? I've tried 3 different browsers with no luck the last two days.
Either I get an adobe-pass tab that doesn't do anything from https://entitlement.auth.adobe.com/ or "Sorry! We're having some trouble".
If the problem persists, please contact us and send us a note."

Edit: The must have changed something. Cleared cookies and data for NBC, USA and adobe and now it works.

Dnzul , doctorm, and ehurler thanks for the help. Finally got it to work about a week ago and meant to post earlier. Thanks again and see yall again in 4 years. Haha. I was also able to rip from Canadian and Spanish networks websites with a VPN. They’re easily captured with streamlink or a variety of Firefox extensions.

You could at least tell us how you finally got it to work, instead of just laughing and disappearing for the next 4 years.

I managed to get it working, and I'll post all the steps here, since the info seems to be scattered across a lot of different posts:

1. in a browser, open the console and go to the Network tab
2. load the video you want to download
3. in the Network tab, search for "mpd", there should be a master.mpd
4. do a Copy URL on the master.mpd, then paste it somewhere to be used later, and after pasting, remove everything that comes after master.mpd
5. click on the Response tab for the master.mpd
6. copy/paste the XML somewhere, then search for "pssh", there should be some <cencssh xmlns:cenc="urn:mpeg:cenc:2013"> tags
7. copy the value of the first one
8. paste it into the PSSH field at https://old.cdrm-project.com/
9. search for "license" in the Network tab, there should be at least one that comes up
10. pick the first one, do a Copy URL, then paste it into the License field on the same https://old.cdrm-project.com/
11. then do a Copy as cURL, paste it into https://curlconverter.com/, copy the "headers = " value that is returned (just everything inside the braces and including the braces), then paste it into the Headers field on the same https://old.cdrm-project.com/, then click Send
12. it should return the key at the bottom, as a long string followed by a colon followed by another long string
13. run the following command with the master.mpd URL and key: N_m3u8DL-RE.exe --key <key from step 13> <mpd URL from step 4> --auto-select --save-name "output-filename" -M format=mp4

Any reason why you are using the old.cdrm-project?
Also, for the pssh, I have TamperMonkey installed in my browser with the emeshort.js script. The PSSH will automatically pop-up in the 'console' tab if you filter for "MediaKeySession::generateRequest".
The links for emeshort.js seem dead ATM. If you're interested, let me know.

I found old.cdrm-project.com in another thread. I guess either one would work. I don't have too many browser extensions installed, so I guess I'll go without the extension/script for now. I'm not downloading too many of these videos.
