Help with vimeo

[abacaxi]

Hi everyone,
does anyone see how to download on an easy way a video from vimeo. (I mean using N_m3u8... not jdownloader wich still works)
the eternal trick by substituing "master.json > master.mpd" doesn't seem to work anymore, or am i wrong ?

see here with this :

You can use : https://github.com/akiomik/vimeo-dl?tab=readme-ov-file.
Grab the playlist.json's url and run :

vimeo-dl -i "playlist.json's url" --combine -o "save-name"

For your video :

vimeo-dl -i 'https://vod-adaptive-ak.vimeocdn.com/exp=1719635282~acl=%2F0120a429-eb92-4773-9163-c5eee868cf26%2F%2A~hmac=c60b02024735d18d4676ed131e807cdcffe9d8515523b6693dfe6145edd33dd8/0120a429-eb92-4773-9163-c5eee868cf26/v2/playlist/av/primary/playlist.json?omit=av1-hevc&pathsig=8c953e4f~iOLZ4t0WlRfxNbmkXDz0PCZ44zMRZaJtOgi1ezG0mSg&rh=zWrec' --combine -o 'Infierno grande'

This tool ins't fast.. You better using jdownloader2

you can share details privately if you wanna!!

[abacaxi]

you can share details privately if you wanna!!

actually, there is no need. can you just go on any random vimeo video and see if you can get the master.json, please ?

and now seems to have a json file like this :

You don't need details shared privately ?
The link to the video is shared in the first post :

https://vimeo.com/813565071

Vimeo are now using playlist.json instead of master.json. You can setup a flaresolverr container to bypass cloudflare protection in jdownloader or use this project I shared in the first reply : https://github.com/akiomik/vimeo-dl?tab=readme-ov-file

@abacaxi

why just don't use yt-dlp as cedric says on post#3?
yt-dlp can support vimeo video extractor (also 1080p is available for your link)

or download from this m3u8 link (valid for 5 hours)

https://vod-adaptive-ak.vimeocdn.com/exp=1719682421~acl=%2F0120a429-eb92-4773-9163-c5eee868cf26%2F%2A~hmac=953f4ebc19b0e69de1848acc96a879e4d4a46fc45d3c384b91c1fd7e9cde3e03/0120a429-eb92-4773-9163-c5eee868cf26/v2/playlist/av/primary/sub/83067674-en/playlist.m3u8?ext-subs=1&pathsig=8c953e4f~4_q-sfRQXUPh4uw13UzH6SjIqG5c0o2kyz3J9HAHhgc&rh=zWrec&sf=ts

[aqzs]

Yt-dlp isn't always working due to cloudflare protection..

Here is a script I made using flaresolverr to get the N_m3u8DL-RE command :

import requests
import json
import re
from pprint import pprint
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup

headers = {'Content-Type': 'application/json'}

def create():
    r = requests.post(API_URL, headers=headers, json={"cmd":"sessions.create","maxTimeout":60000})
    rdata = json.loads(r.content)
    return rdata["session"]

def get(url):
    response = requests.post(API_URL, headers=headers, json={"cmd":"request.get","url":url,"maxTimeout":60000,"session":SESSIONID})
    response_data = json.loads(response.content)
    html = response_data["solution"]["response"]
    return html

def destroy():
    destroy_response = requests.post(API_URL, headers=headers, json={"cmd":"sessions.destroy","session":SESSIONID})
    destroy_response_data = destroy_response.json()
    if destroy_response_data['status'] == 'ok':
        print(f'Session {SESSIONID} destroyed successfully.')
    else:
        print(f'Failed to destroy session {SESSIONID}:', destroy_response_data['message'])


API_URL = 'http://0.0.0.0:8191/v1'
SESSIONID = create()
# video_url = 'https://vimeo.com/813565071'
video_url = input('Enter the Vimeo video URL: ')
r = get(video_url)

match = re.search(r'window\.vimeo\.clip_page_config\s*=\s*({.*?});', r)
if match:
    config = match.group(1)
    config_json = json.loads(config)
    player = config_json['player']['config_url']
    name = config_json['clip']['title']

    html = get(player)
    soup = BeautifulSoup(html, 'html.parser')
    json_str = soup.pre.get_text()
    data = json.loads(json_str)
    cdn = data['request']['files']['hls']['default_cdn']
    m3u8_url = data['request']['files']['hls']['cdns'][cdn]['url']

    print(f"""N_m3u8DL-RE "{m3u8_url}" --save-name "{name}" --select-video best --select-audio all --select-subtitle all -mt -M format=mkv  --log-level OFF""")
else:
    print('clip_page_config not found')

destroy()

To run this script you will need to have flaresolverr running in a docker container, here are instructions for setup : https://github.com/FlareSolverr/FlareSolverr?tab=readme-ov-file#installation

Regarding cloudflare: won't the curl-cffi integration (impersonation) in yt-dlp help here?
