Australian members, need to grab something from ABC IView

[adrian44]

Been trying for days to download a video from ABC IView, but the site keeps detecting that I'm outside Australia despite trying half a dozen servers from two VPNs. I know that's a huge thing to ask but I'm at a dead end and can't afford to spend more on VPN memberships only to be detected too. Would a kind soul downunder grab this video for me at the highest possible quality? I know it's available on ITV but the one on ABC IView is higher resolution

From my testing on the few other videos that IView makes available for non-Australians, the mpd url ends with "720" but changing that url manually to "1080" instead accesses 1080p version.

Thank you SO MUCH!

Thank you very much. Should've mentioned that I got this one too and the bitrate isn't good. Looked bad on my TV hence my attempt to grab the Aussie version

Which VPN services have you tried?
If this is any help, I got the message that content is not available outside Australia. When I connected using a Proton VPN, that message was gone.

Thanks for this. If all fails I'll try to purchase Proton once I'm able to. It's a great one but sadly the free version doesn't have Aussie servers.

Appreciate your time.

I tried to make an account but I had to fill in a lot of details so I gave up.
