Please help me, how can i get them using streamfab, 1dm or yt-dlp.
need step by step instructions

[CrymanChen]

1st one:

--key bb2b6531879c00d9f461d868af1d3a36:fae8e8331c47465af17f72de26bee8c5
--key bcd65495c65ac5122d3120e7d07f428e:3b7fe31d6278821b0180c8e18104cd34
--key e8554a835c851595dc715e5e9ba4cb5f:42b19e4e1642c79a942c2715681a6c57

2nd one:

--key 23161b9349d70ca0d9806349b3cd675e:701c9fe28cffd460b2922dc81a51cc9b
--key 17615852259e824af1a6c05830a10404:4d18260101a6a079c0873654046494f2
--key 33d766380a6b8fcd518cb6069378bbaa:b9c61cd38c2255e29b2b54327b356a25

3rd one:

--key b5d9ccdc0c31e9a2441fa20c51291212:70bacd3e0f1da4ad892e3206d3d4f496
--key ce9434d8b61919590534462f13ebe986:aabddf4a388c89bd5fc979dd63090d75
--key 971c4cee391829339aee788a08e5ec83:7cb973ffe3d4393e1caa826a74cc3b31

Then you can download these videos with yt-dlp, then decrypt them with mp4decrypt.

[iamghost]

you can use devine from sticky thread to download CTV

[Al7777777]

Please , help me how to use keys with yt-dlp
from linux terminal
devine has installed.
for example
yt-dlp
--key bb2b6531879c00d9f461d868af1d3a36:fae8e8331c47465af 17f72de26bee8c5
--key bcd65495c65ac5122d3120e7d07f428e:3b7fe31d6278821b0 180c8e18104cd34
--key e8554a835c851595dc715e5e9ba4cb5f:42b19e4e1642c79a9 42c2715681a6c57
https://www.ctv.ca/movies/emma-fielding-mysteries-more-bitter-than-death/emma-fielding...ter-than-death

result:
yt-dlp: error: no such option: --key

[larley]

yt-dlp doesn't support that, use N_m3u8DL-RE
Also, use the MPD URL and not the video URL.

thanks
but plese help, how to do it?
i install it in windows 10, but after start, error ''you can't use this app on the computer'' appear.
on linux i can''t find command to start from terminal.
how to install N_m3u8DL-RE in Linux with terminal?

[larley]

download the zip file for your os, unzip it, place the contents in a directory, open a terminal in that directory, and type ./N_m3u8DL-RE

[Al7777777]

it is getting warmer
Successfully installed yt-dlp-mp4decrypt-0.3
but after launch
17:45:41.763 INFO : N_m3u8DL-RE (Beta version) 20230628

where i am wrong?

[Al7777777]

and how to find MPD URL from video URL.

[larley]

but after launch

This is mp4decrypt, not 'yt-dlp-mp4decrypt-0.3'

and how to find MPD URL from video URL.

Open network tab (F12), and search for .mpd

[Al7777777]

how to install mp4decrypt
it is still not found

[Al7777777]

and there are no MPD link in devtools

[larley]

place mp4decrypt (the .exe) in the same directory as N_m3u8DL-RE

Maybe filter for .m3u8?

[Al7777777]

new mistake
Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
but i am using this link
https://www.ctv.ca/movies/emma-fielding-mysteries-more-bitter-than-death/emma-fielding...ter-than-death

[larley]

That's an N_m3u8DL-RE issue, can't help

[Al7777777]

i think i make a wrong command.
./N_m3u8DL-RE %https://www.ctv.ca/movies/emma-fielding-mysteries-more-bitter-than-death/emma-fielding...er-than-death% --save-name "%00007777%" --key %bb2b6531879c00d9f461d868af1d3a36:fae8e8331c47465a f17f72de26bee8c5% --key %bcd65495c65ac5122d3120e7d07f428e:3b7fe31d6278821b 0180c8e18104cd34% --key %e8554a835c851595dc715e5e9ba4cb5f:42b19e4e1642c79a 942c2715681a6c57% -M format=mp4

we are so close , somebody help.

[2nHxWW6GkN1l916N3ayz8HQoi]

You can't use page URL with N_m3u8DL-RE since it doesn't have page extractors like yt-dlp

[Al7777777]

how can i get this video
https://www.ctv.ca/movies/emma-fielding-mysteries-more-bitter-than-death/emma-fielding...ter-than-death
thank you all for advises
but somebody can just give right command

[2nHxWW6GkN1l916N3ayz8HQoi]

but somebody can just give right command

I can't access your video but your site is already solved by downloaders. @CrymanChen gave you the keys so all that remains is downloading the content. Since you don't know how to inspect the requests just use yt-dlp

yt-dlp "https://www.ctv.ca/movies/emma-fielding-mysteries-more-bitter-than-death/emma-fielding-mysteries-more-bitter-than-death" --allow-u -o "content"

Rename to video both files. Then use mp4decrypt on them with the keys you received in the first post.

mp4decrypt --key bb2b6531879c00d9f461d868af1d3a36:fae8e8331c47465af17f72de26bee8c5 --key bcd65495c65ac5122d3120e7d07f428e:3b7fe31d6278821b0180c8e18104cd34 --key e8554a835c851595dc715e5e9ba4cb5f:42b19e4e1642c79a942c2715681a6c57 video.mp4 video_decrypted.mp4

And repeat for others and for the other tracks. Make sure you're using the right keys.

Edit: apparently this is exactly what @crymanchen also said. No idea why you didn't listen to him.

[Al7777777]

thank you
now i can understand a little
but after first command, error occurs:

The extractor for that site may be dead than. Luckily their site allows free proxies.

[Al7777777]

2nHxWW6GkN1l916N3ayz8HQoi you are magician.
deep respect
also a huge thank you to everyone who responded.

first 2 link worked, third is processing now.
But i still have 1 big question.
how i can get keys and .mpd links by myself?

[2nHxWW6GkN1l916N3ayz8HQoi]

how i can get keys and .mpd links by myself?

Oh boy oh boy. You'd knew the answer to this question if you just browsed the forum a little. Especially since you can find your answer partly in the titles of the sticky threads.

Well first for the mpd, I used the stream detector and grabbed the first manifest URL. As for the keys, there are many ways. The classic is just getting the pssh/license manually and either use wks-keys, cdrm project or a custom script with your own cdm. All this is explained in the sticky threads so I won't continue.

Those practices become almost outdated in the current month due to general key extractors*. One of them is angela's hell noob pack which also has a gui.
https://forum.videohelp.com/threads/415090-All-Hell-Let-Loose!
https://forum.videohelp.com/threads/415503-%5Brelease%5D-AllHellGui

Then you have the foxrefire addon (with another modified addon offered by cdrm project):
https://forum.videohelp.com/threads/414140-%5BRelease%5D-Widevine-L3-Guesser-Extension...-Chrome-All-OS
https://cdrm-project.com/extension

Then you have the fresh key extractor* of larley (which by the way is present in the current thread among us):
https://forum.videohelp.com/threads/415485-%5BRelease%5D-WidevineFetch-Keys-from-just-...y-Lic-Wrapping

But if you care about downloading only, you should listen to @iamghost's suggestion. Devine
https://forum.videohelp.com/threads/414154-Devine-Modular-Movie-TV-and-Music-Archival-Software
https://cdm-project.com/stabbedbybrick/devine-services/src/branch/main/services

Don't ask me how to use any of those tools. I merely guided you towards them. If this looks too complicated for you, it isn't the creator's intention. It's just the nature of DRM which is tricky. But who knows, seeing the current rate of how scripts/tools evolve, maybe by the end of this year you'd have a 1 click download addon that does all of this without you even needing to open the network requests.

How did you know?

[2nHxWW6GkN1l916N3ayz8HQoi]

How did you know?

I come from the future. But jokes aside, it's wild how fast things evolved. No idea how this community was like >5 years ago, but recently more and more users publish tools/scripts/guides etc. It wouldn't surprise me if some good samaritan made an addon like that. Maybe not this year, but in the close future (a matter of "when" not "if").

[larley]

It's just funny how you're describing my project that I've been working on for >7 months.

Big respect then

Hope all is going well with the development. That's quite an ambitious project after all
