ABC News VideoSource

[mikeru]

Would anyone be able to help me understand how to grab video from this site?
www.abcnewsvsource.com

yt-dlp doesn't play nice with the web url or the amazonaws url that I can retrieve from the inspector.

URL for a video example
https://www.abcnewsvsource.com/home/815227/817292

An example of the URLs from inspector
https://abcmam-masstech-prod.s3.amazonaws.com/060a2b340101010101010f0013-000000-613cd2...VVz7S0Keo0w%3D

Any help greatly appreciated!
Thanks

Use the amazonaws link with referer with curl
Example

curl --referer "https://www.abcnewsvsource.com/" "https://abcmam-masstech-prod.s3.amazonaws.com/060a2b340101010101010f0013-000000-037ba05b747dbeb3-060e2b347f7f-2a80__10998941__NYBE17680I.000.mp4?AWSAccessKeyId=ASIAQTDI4ECZDEVVNFOQ&Expires=1661443434&Signature=SqA8mHGpiLzEqz%2FYPJzCAy8qXz8%3D&x-amz-security-token=FwoGZXIvYXdzECoaDM9VbF7mCoGqo%2B0UfSK5Af2%2Ba0Zhw8pOu%2BUWq2R8kBms9ZSSS4CS9%2FZz494UaaR03I4saPChUaqDJFz0R5ofxmD5CZMdt17MNCXOLxNRTflwfeLm%2FnUl8MpGszNUDICZmBfGa48z0ZjfDX5tiIrzzJSd2pQcP24t6%2F%2FDwI8LJaBmmIow3HbR7Ft2Rf6%2Fl2nBLbxYyPIpt%2FlizuggJQp1UGhmE%2FtcsET%2BNLtIKphw98rnTbxpY3wvJHa04DP0QBXS%2BkubXOFXvu5EKOr0k5gGMi3rqnG%2FqIKO5vR2kgpZKp3q2Fb1JbOUJi7UdbYjy%2BZEfNWwco0p1bDVf3HRULM%3D" --output nine11.mp4

Hiya Mike and Vegeta!!

Thanks so much for the help. This link has worked for me for a year but now I get the following error message:

I've tried adding --cookies-from-browser chrome and still nothing.

My yt-dlp link at the moment is:

Would love some help as I am a hopeless noob!!!

Thanks

[ss]vegeta's post (#2) clearly says to use curl.


The link still works with curl.

Hiya!

Thanks for the quick answer. I'm sorry if it's something really simple but it's still not working for me... I put in the below link and get this error message
