Freevine - A downloader for free streaming services (discontinued)

Hi Guys having an issue with ITVX and reading the help about 'None Type' it says maybe N_m3u8DL-RE isn't correctly in the path but it certainly is.

Hoping someone has an alternative to this issue

looks to be an issue when the api.yaml file is empty and not needed for a given service.
either comment out the lines in the script that read and import the config (ie. line 48 and 49 for itv) or add a dummy config in the api.yaml file

Hey, trying to run the new release, and running into issues with both CTV and ITVX. Did I do anything wrong? I moved over my CDM and it created a new WVD file for me.

if you give the episode url then you need to use --episode

python3 freevine.py --episode "https://www.ctv.ca/shows/the-masked-singer/one-hit-wonders-night-s10e7"

looks like just a typo - it should be "get_keys" not "get.keys"

yep, thanks champ

That solved it for CTV and ITV! Thank you. Only problem now is that the video for CTV appears to not download (audio and subtitles are fine).

are you trying to get the whole series? if so, i think you should be using --complete

python3 freevine.py --complete "https://www.itv.com/watch/30-rock/10a3798/10a3798a0097"

otherwise use --episode or --season to specify, as per the instructions in --help

Hi stabbedbybrick,

freevine.py --season S02 https://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episodes/m0009tgy/bing?seriesId=m0009xhl

(This worked perfectly).....

Just interested in what "13:01:56.236 ERROR : Service is not supported" possibly means.

Thank you for any help/advice.

p.s. rather stupidly I should have refreshed this page,..... lots of updates since my last post. My only question is about the above error.

[stabbedbybrick]

Just interested in what "13:01:56.236 ERROR : Service is not supported" possibly means.

It means that the URL doesn't contain a supported streaming service. This could mean that the URL value is wrong or incomplete, or you've tried to download from a streaming service that isn't supported.

Are you getting this error anywhere right now?

[sipho]

@stabbedbybrick please confirm that in order to switch between mkv and mp4 containers, the only workable solution is to either run some script that enables the respective container in the config.yaml or alternatively to have an exact copy of the freevine folder with the only difference being the format line in config.yaml?

Everything else seems configurable on the command line.

[stabbedbybrick]

@sipho:

Unless I'm misunderstanding you, simply using "--format mp4" should work. I've used it many times already and haven't experienced any issues.

What is it that doesn't work for you?

I tried a small file from ch5,... I used:

What is it that doesn't work for you?

Yeah, I was using this.

-M format=mp4

because that is what you throw at n_m3u8dl-re in batch files.

Thanks again!.

It's most likely your python version. The requirements says 3.10+ for this reason. Some older versions do work, but many don't. I'd recommend 3.10.12 and above.

Could the reason be because of ch5's weekly change of encryption,....

It's not the encryption, it's a bug with Channel5 script that has plagued me for a long time now and I haven't gotten off my ass to fix it yet. When you encounter episodes like this, try downloading with the --movie argument instead of --episode, it usually works.

Looks like they're keeping you busy, ElCap

Appreciate the help!

no worries, happy to help for this great app!

I haven't upgraded to the newest version yet but I have had some success with Pluto TV and my VPN. It gets huge files but I can encode them to a lower resolution. I ran across a couple of movies today that ended up with Descriptive Audio and so I did a bit of experimenting with N_M3u8DL-RE with Shaka Packager. I loaded the Pluto TV commands and url into Freevine as usual. Then I paused the download and worked with a template for N_M3u8DL-RE where I got the Key:Kid that was revealed in Freevine and the url mpd. I was able to select 854 x 480 (1233 kbs) video resolution the two audio files seemed to be identical so I checked both. However when it was downloaded and decrypted I was able to use VLC and select the regular audio but the first audio that came up was descriptive. Earlier in this thread I was given instructions on how to edit the service config for Tubi TV because I ran across the same thing with "Birds Of Prey".

Here is the template for N_M3u8DL-RE:

I don't know if this is any use to anyone but one never knows. Here s a link to the config edit information:

I did some additional experimenting and tried the download with the audio labled Cenc 3 and that is the regular audio not the descriptive audio. A bonus I suppose to all this that I get the file size I want and don't have to encode down from a larger file.

If you are batch encoding some huge files down to a lower resolution and kbs with VidCoder, learn this lesson from me go into the Picker setting to make sure you keep your subtitles in batch encode. What can happen if you don't do that is your first in the list keeps the subtitles and the rest don't.
