Download from udemy DRM

[EssKei]

Hey Guys,
I'm new here and just have a question.
I want to download videos from udemy which i purchased but are DRM protected.
So i went down the rabbit hole to yt-dlp but I dont know how to get the KID and Key to decrypt everything.
I tried widevine-l3-guesser but i just dont get the keys on udemy so I guess it doesnt use widevine to encrypt?

Send link and user/pass via private message.

try with another browser. firefox recommended.
sometimes not get key with chromium browser but work better with firefox.
install guesser on firefox, than try it.

From what I see, m3u8 link with no proper encryption, and can be easily downloaded with Streamlink.

Another course seems to be Widevine encrypted.
The mpd is easily accessible, however, yt-dlp gives an error when trying to download and they don't seem to plan on fixing it.
https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp/issues/825

Here's a mpd sample that will work for I don't know how long.

The file can be downloaded, uploaded on Github or somewhere, and then yt-dlp can download.
But this is tedious.
Anyone know another tool or easier way?

put mpd on N_m3u8DL-CLI

put mpd on N_m3u8DL-CLI

Thank you, this tool doesn't have a problem to download from udemy

[Ultrablack]

Hi, I tried both yt-dlp and N_m3u8DL-CL. The first sends a 403 error as vegeta was reporting, the second one throws 'invalid uri'. As you were saying, though, the url to the .mpd is correct and it is possible to download it easily via browser. How did you manage to make it work?

Even if you get past downloading, are you able to get keys for decryption of the downloaded encrypted content?

[Ultrablack]

Did not try yet but if I don't manage to download the encrypted stream I'm stuck at first base if you know how to please write me, also on pm if you prefer

[lomero]

udemy has changed its rules for downloading. now all videos are protected.
but try this (if you are able with python...) https://github.yuuza.net/Puyodead1/udemy-downloader

[Ultrablack]

Already tried, it works only for the videos which are already open access. The mad thing is that I paid for this course and I just want to be able to access it without having to go into a browser. It's so frustrating

[ac427]

Just use Udeler

[Ultrablack]

Udeler works only for DRM-free videos, which are very few by now

Perhaps the keys could be found in the Udemy mobile app?

ytdlp can download the mpd with --allow-u and --force-generic-extractor

[Ultrablack]

Could you try this one? I had no luck

However, as I said, getting keys for decryption is the problem. Someone should give it a try.
There doesn't seem to be any json but there's a cookie value that maybe makes "problems" for scripts to get keys.
I get a response from cloudflare blabla.

They use this additional cancer DRM

[Ultrablack]

Nice! I missed the -o option. So you think there is no way at the moment to get the keys, not even with the known methods?
btw if you'd like it would be nice to continue the conversation, pm me

[[ss]vegeta]

There's always a way, but someone smarter should figure it out and hope that he shares with us.

[Ultrablack]

I managed to decrypt them. If you are interested write me a pm, have a good one!

[jack_666]

[ss]vegeta ".... shares with us."

Ultrablack ".... write me a pm"

Wham! Bam! Thank You Ma'am!

Fascinating.

I have the same problem, can You help me in pm?

[cDArvpAx]

I've been looking for days for a solution to save my last Udemy courses, and until then came across this post. Would be great if someone could also help me via PM.

[cake_some]

I would like to know how to proceed with my purchased (encrypted) udemy courses, if I would like to save them on my hard drive (decrypted)- if anyone could send me a pm about the steps to follow, I would very much appreciate that. So far I would use the python script of a certain github user (part of his name has something to do with the end of life), but I need the decryption key id and decryption key, which I'm unable to find.

[Clue-Finder]

I look for Puyodead1 on Git and works great for me!

My problem by Puyodead1 is that I don't know how to get the Key and Key ID. I have extracted the widevine dump from my mobile phone but here the same, I don't know to use the .bin and .pem files.
Can you please explane your workflow to me?

[lomero]

and you have done a not easy job on your phone, you got 2 files and now you don't know what they are and what to do with them?

unbelievable ...

Yes, it's unbelievable, there are also some instructions for reading out the widevine dumps. But how it should go on with Udemy, I unfortunately found nothing publicly.
I've been playing around with WKS-KEY, PsshBox and curlconverter but unfortunately I didn't get to the point. So I would be grateful for any help.
