Thank you so much!
I have some questions if you could have time to reply please:

Does that key work with all videos?

How do i generate keys like that?

Can this be done with yt-dlp? I've been trying with it for so long that I feel frustrated and really wanted to learn to do with it!

Chill bro I'm new. This is my first started thread.

Hello new.

Does that key work with all videos?

Nope. You may get the occasional different videos that have a key working for both of them, but there isn't a single key that works for ALL possible videos.

How do i generate keys like that?

The problem is already solved and discussed here.

Or if you want to do it manually, check @angela's decryption trilogy.

Please don't ask me any additional questions regarding this, I just pointed you to the solution.

Can this be done with yt-dlp? I've been trying with it for so long that I feel frustrated and really wanted to learn to do with it!

Eh, it depends. If you mean obtaining the decryption keys, then no. If you mean downloading and decrypting, yeah but yt-dlp is not enough. You use yt-dlp with --allow-u parameter to download the encrypted content. Then you use mp4decrypt to manually decrypt the downloaded content.

A fair warning, this isn't 100% reliable. I've had issues with very weird/niche sites where if you do this, you end up with video/audio sync issues. The solution was to use N_m3u8DL-RE which does proper decryption and muxing at same time.

Hi again. Thanks for the amazing tips. I installed everything and started the work but I'm getting this output: python allhell3.py

I keep getting the mux error and I have exhausted all possibilities. Glad if you could help friend.

[larley]

Does the muxed file exist?
If yes, then mkvmerge exited with a status code that isn't 0 if there are warnings in the output but the mux was successful. This non-zero exit code is interpreted as a fail by N_m3u8DL-RE.
If the file doesn't exist or isn't playable, then the mux actually just failed.

There is nothing I can do? Because the first part of the video (it's a 2 video series) was downloaded with success by a member of this forum.

[lomero]

if you use allhell3 it would be better if you asked for an explanation in the appropriate thread and perhaps Angela, the author of the thread, will be able to answer you adequately

It's the second thread reported in post #6

[Goku73]

You simply need to change the command of the final mux, -M format=mkv

Try this:

N_m3u8DL-RE "https://streaming-vod.rtp.pt/drm-dash/nas2.share/mcm/arquivo/mp4/7c3/7c36ad783020ea148420af5723fa09f4arq.mp4/manifest.mpd" --save-name "noite_sangrenta_2" --sub-format srt -sv best -sa all -ss all --check-segments-count false -M format=mkv --key b57fd50083e83bfd85bbc31a32cf47e1:3d5f6bcf52c213ac76f5b896ee95be4e

Thanks I downloaded the file but your command is a bit advanced for me. Can you explain me what did you do?

Note: i had to run the command just using n-m3u8DL-RE and not allhell3.py which was where the output I posted was printed.

Can this be done with yt-dlp? I've been trying with it for so long that I feel frustrated and really wanted to learn to do with it!

Yeah this user replied to one of my threads and now I can see what they are all about, berating people they feel are
not doing things "the right way". no idea what their deal is, clearly something personal.

He's not wrong. Reading is the key to knowledge

Yeah, given all the users reporting various unexpected errors in those threads, I think "solved" is a bit of an overstatement. Clearly
a lot of reading is needed for this so I definitely agree with that sentiment.
