Streaming from Boomerang / Streamfab forum

[aurgathor]

I was trying to save some videos from Boomerang -- I tried Streamfab and it partly works, however:
1. it didn't save the subtitles
2. there doesn't seem to be a way to *manually* start a download

So I tried to register on "forum.dvdfab.cn" with the purpose of asking some questions regards to the above; however, I unexplainably failed(?!) their captcha and my email was banned on 2nd (!!) try as per attached image.

As far as I can see I entered the correct answer, so there must be something wrong on their end. And clicking "here" to contact the admin is 404.

Are there any other programs that can download DRM MPD, or I have to wait until redfox rises from the ashes?

Yes, there are. Even here in the forum. I'd recommend you to read through the first post of A_n_g_e_l_a's series in the stickies: https://forum.videohelp.com/threads/404994-Decryption-and-the-Temple-of-Doom

Read through til the end of the first post, there you'll find a link to a ready to go script to download and decrypt things by yourself. Admittedly not as comfortable as streamfab, but it works. And you'll learn a ton of how things work under the hood.

If you post the video url, someone might even be willing to find the keys for you.

Will do the reading, thanks.

The two URLs I've tried: (they both show as "Free" to me:
https://watch.boomerang.com/watch/181/1 (Ya Win Some, Ya Luge Some)
https://watch.boomerang.com/watch/25/1 (A Night at the Katz Motel)

Jep, it's geo-blocked but free; the keys for the first:

You can use

yt-dlp --allow-u https://bo-prod-video.wbdnbo.net/v13/ba4ab4f1-0a68-420e-9878-c2b3682ddb10/8887190780/dash/widevine/index_sdr_1080_avc_ns_2.mpd

to download, and mp4decrypt with the keys to decrypt. Or use the "N_m3u8DL-RE" tool.


For the subtitles you'd have to look at the browser's developer console, there is a request for "webvtt" with the subtitles url in it: "https://watch.boomerang.com/st/subtitle/a2972250-56b5-4960-b77f-3d2144773eca.webvtt"

Subtitles: https://watch.boomerang.com/st/subtitle/5ae08452-289f-4b00-9be7-b7602dbf0b7c.webvtt

The only not so easy part is: the PSSH is not contained in the MPD's, you'll have to extract it from the downloaded encrypted videos to request the keys.

You can find everything necessary here in the forum.

Will do the reading, thanks.

I'd like to point out the subs can be included in the mpd file if you change the request the retrieve it :

params = (
    ('cdn', 'cloudfront'),
    ('drm', 'widevine'),
    ('st', 'dash'),
    ('subs', 'all'),
)
response = requests.get('https://watch.boomerang.com/api/5/1/video_manifest_from_jwt/', headers=headers, params=params)

The new mpd url is now :

https://bo-prod-video.wbdnbo.net/v13/ba4ab4f1-0a68-420e-9878-c2b3682ddb10/8887190780/dash/widevine/index_sdr_1080_avc_vtt_2.mpd

You can also get subs as srt if you don't like webvtt :

response = requests.get('https://watch.boomerang.com/api/5/video/25.1/subtitles/srt/', headers=headers)
print('response: ', response.text)

And since no one provided a download with everything merged properly here is one : https://www.swisstransfer.com/d/e75aa219-b88b-4e44-9640-87cc577565da

Thanks for all who replied and helped!

Here are the subtitles. Used a GUI application to download.
