Fantastic Friends from crave.ca

[CrymanChen]

Hi,
I was trying to download Fantastic Friends from www.crave.ca
But I met some problems and was wondering if y'all could help me.

What I don't know are as below:
1. Why are there some .pmpd files, and I guess "pmpd" means "partial mpd"?
2. I couldn't find the PSSH value in the mpd file, nor can I find the KID (default_KID) value.
3. It seems that I still don't know how to get the KEY when Microsoft PlayReady was used to encrypt the video.

The website URL is: https://www.crave.ca/en/tv-shows/fantastic-friends/st-lucia-s1e1

The mpd file URL is: https://capi.9c9media.com/destinations/crave_atexace/platforms/desktop/playback/conten...=true&mta=true

PSSH and KID values often appear in the "ContentProtection" part, but what I got is like this:

Other parts of the mpd file look the same as this above, so I just copied one part.

And I noticed a "init data", here it is an mp4 file whose size is only 1KB...
May I ask what is the role of this init.mp4?

[CrymanChen]

I opened the init.mp4 with Notepad
And found a "Rpssh" in the file:

Could this be the real PSSH value? But these characters are... "encrypted"?

Thank you ElCap, sorry I didn't mention the post you listed above...
I'll go and learn more about it, many thanks.

Thanks, there is a lot for me to learn.

Thanks folks!
I tried to download the EME script
And it detected the PSSH value!

Here's how I got it, if you have the same problem, maybe my experience could help you:

1. Download the EME Logger script on: https://greasyfork.org/en/scripts/373903-eme-logger
Please get notified that you should install an extension called "Tampermonkey"

2. And go to the video website, I mean where you can watch that video.
In here, I wanna watch Fantastic Friends on crave.ca, so I opened that website:

3. Open your developer tool by touching F12 on your keyboard, sometimes, if you are using a laptop like me, you should add an "Fn" key which means function.
And after you open it, click "Console" from the top of the developer tool:

I forgot to change the language 'cause I'm Chinese-speaking, and the word console in Chinese is "控制台"

4. Refresh the page so that the console could start to capture the things you want.
And something magical would appear:

Do you see the [EME] MediaKeySession::generateRequest part?
Those characters start with an A and end with "=", isn't it familiar? That's right, the PSSH value!

Okay, so now what? How do you finish this to get the video downloaded?
