Thanks pepe. I was able to use this as a starting point to build my own CBS script in the style I wanted to match all the others I've made.

Incidentally what's the go with the fake user agent ? I did find that CBS failed every time I used a constant user agent. This is the first time I've seen a script with the fake user agent to be honest. Is CBS more likely to work with the randomness ?

[2nHxWW6GkN1l916N3ayz8HQoi]

You're welcome @bill. Honestly, I ditched fake user agent. It's a nice python package and their intention is good, but I couldn't use it as a general solution for all sites that need user agent in their headers. I only used it at the beginning when I barely started writing scrapers, cbs being my first. One site that doesn't work for most UAs provided by fake is vtmgo.be

One solution would be to allow the user to set their own user agent in a config file / or passed as parameter. You can decide the best approach. Also that script is also outdated. You need more than a user agent. I think curl_cffi as well. If you have problems, you can also just look at other people's work. There's currently a working version in my downloader and I don't mind if you look at it to see how certain things were solved. If I minded, I wouldn't have made it public

This is how I've managed to learn so much in the last 10 months since joining. I pretty much inspect every piece of code I see. I really appreciate the code that's shared here for people to see.

Appreciate the reply -- I'm new here, any pointers on what I would do this to get the download link? Or if someone is open to sharing the downloaded video that'd be a huge help. Thanks guys <3

I'm sure someone will give you the download link with the uploaded video. So I'm gonna leave instructions for N_m3u8DL-RE so others can see since it's more useful in the long run. Download and put in the same folder the following:
- N_m3u8DL-RE
- ffmpeg
- mp4decrypt

Then run any n_m3u8dl-re command someone gives you

what I find funny is when some people say "learning is important" when half the time (or more) threads here are people just doing the work for others and decoding the files for them.

Hi, Would someone be able to help me download this program? https://test-www.cbs.com/shows/video/fY532qrmir6s7Xa9Ff5QcSkSeIPDiPg7/ (It's from a test page version of the CBS site) The instructions go beyond my technical expertise I'm afraid.
