Download Spotify ad-style videos - ie Takeovers?

[fireplayer]

Hi. New here - trying to dl a few videos from spotify - that shows as Takeover - it is 3 videos of an artist sharing stories about the creation of his new album.IDM / XDM download a set of .webm fragments... But nothing usable. Replay Media Catcher 7 can't capture. Also tried a few browser plugins - but to no avail. Any tips on how I can dl the 3 videos on here:

Without using video recordings programs preferrably if possible...

Any ideas?

[fireplayer]

Exactly. The 3 non audio parts of it. Any ideas?

Need access.

[fireplayer]

What do you mean? It is free if you use facebook or so to register? Using a webbrowser? I have only my fb connected using a free account. Or do you mean it may be geoblocked?

Need access.

I see no videos here, only 11 songs.

But, I do remember once trying to download from spotify and I failed. I remember too it was webm fragments that I couldn't decrypt.

okay, so, videos aren't actually encrypted
I downloaded the init with curl

curl "https://video-fa.scdn.co/segments/v1/origins/b1acc6dba4d449dcf7a71659d3fabea2/sources/0bb98fd14d2c52f99fd0c6d0ec961a49/encodings/a46f1840d25511ec80bb390c6a075c23/profiles/19/inits/webm?token=zOT5HSXVvsOwCeGIWnxHZRrl75at3QIfBJ08XL7%2B7ac%3D&token_ak=st%3D1653942176%7Eexp%3D1654546976%7Eacl%3D*%2Fencodings%2Fa46f1840d25511ec80bb390c6a075c23%2F*%7Ehmac%3D7f8b134224c31a88cfda3ed4204739ac397e301ffa8ee412b57892997067c78e" --output init2.webm

then downloaded the first segment

curl "https://video-fa.scdn.co/segments/v1/origins/b1acc6dba4d449dcf7a71659d3fabea2/sources/0bb98fd14d2c52f99fd0c6d0ec961a49/encodings/a46f1840d25511ec80bb390c6a075c23/profiles/19/0.webm?token=zOT5HSXVvsOwCeGIWnxHZRrl75at3QIfBJ08XL7%2B7ac%3D&token_ak=st%3D1653942176%7Eexp%3D1654546976%7Eacl%3D*%2Fencodings%2Fa46f1840d25511ec80bb390c6a075c23%2F*%7Ehmac%3D7f8b134224c31a88cfda3ed4204739ac397e301ffa8ee412b57892997067c78e" --output 2.webm

then used type command in Windows to concatenate them

type init2.webm 2.webm > f.webm

and the resulting f.webm file plays fine

Now we must find an easier way to do this than manually downloading and concatenating init with segments...

The video is available only in the application.

[[ss]vegeta]

I have the desktop application and I still don't see any video. The bottom 2 are still songs only.

Maybe due to some ad blockings in my HOSTS file?

[fireplayer]

Exactly. And I have not managed dl w anything.

They are labelled as "Takeover" which google tells me is normally spotify's video ads....

XDM / IDM give me some very short clips either in mkv or webm format when I try the "Outro" video for example. It plays fine as you can see on the right side...

[[ss]vegeta]

Can't open them even with Sweden VPN

@fireplayer, try to find a 1kb init file and do what I said earlier...

[fireplayer]

That is not the Enhanced Version. Did you click the link or just do a search?

[fireplayer]

Tried - gave me a totally useless 128 kb file...

[fireplayer]

IDM gives me 56 segments I can dl - can I use those somehow?

[fireplayer]

You can see the commands I used. Did I do something wrong?

That was previously. I opened the links afterwards and got the "cant play content" or whatever.

Not that link to curl, use Fiddler or something to capture traffic.

[fireplayer]

Did you try signing in? fb connection works fine as login. Maybe thats why you can't see it?

[fireplayer]

If you are logged in using say facebook - and you do a search (left side) for Joakim Berg - can you then see the Enhanced album in the bottom as shown in this screenshot?


[Attachment 65121 - Click to enlarge]

[fireplayer]

fiddler to capture traffic.... yeah. google it is I thought I knew how to do stuff like this - turns out I don't - any guidance - unless you find the Enhanced album?

[fireplayer]

https://open.spotify.com/search/joakim%20berg

trying to make sense of fiddler rn. it is "fiddler everywhere" you mean, right?

I don't see it. Sorry, can't be messing around with this anymore.

[LZAA]

The account can be blocked. Need access.

[fireplayer]

Now this part is way out of my comprehension. what is the line / wording am I looking for?


[Attachment 65122 - Click to enlarge]

[fireplayer]

nothing i can do w the 56 segments idm wants to dl?

[nimrahwt]

the dev tools also work to get the links, don't need fiddler here

video from spotify?? never seen. and i use spotify

I downloaded your segment and this one as test, but there's no audio track, probably stored as standard spotify audio
