Announcing Envied to the World! Envied is an anagram of Devine and the name pays homage to devine's author.

https://github.com/vinefeeder/envied

The reason for envied's existence is to showcase a --select-titles option as below

Envied is a fork, of a fork, of Devine
Code:
uv run unshackle  dl --select-titles ITV https://www.itv.com/watch/the-fortune-hotel/10a5106/
If you are downloading and only want the pilot - easy;

if you are downloading and only want the last two episodes - easy;

if you are downloading episode weekly and cannot remember the last episode number -easy.

The git repository also has services and a remote cdm pre-configured. All you will need to do is copy across your directories list into the unshackle.yaml within the envied/unshackle folder.

Devine worked well for two years nearly without any updates. The current unshackle fork is a good base for a stable release of Envied which will not be updated every other day.

Thanks for this.

How do i specify what the file to be named as for envied and for vinefeeder

filenames:
log: "envied_{name}_{time}.log"
config: "config.yaml"
root_config: "envied.yaml"
chapters: "Chapters_{title}_{random}.txt"
subtitle: "Subtitle_{id}_{language}.srt"
series: "{title}.S{season}E{episode}.{name}.{resolution}.{ service}.WEB-DL.{audio}.H.264"

edit envied.yaml

[Attachment 89599 - Click to enlarge]

Change the current false to true and save. I choose to avoid 'scene naming' as it interferes with series identification in Plex.

From your message I could only figure out

1) we are from the same continent = 179.148.162.127
2) what you are trying to get is not found = HTTP/1.1" 404 2661
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HTTP_404

In other words, you did not provide enough information ...

Anyone having problems with downloads from CTV?
(freely available titles)

Is there speed throttling in place?

I'm using Devine 3.3.3.
(downloader: n_m3u8dl_re
n_m3u8dl_re:
use_proxy: 'false'
thread_count: 1)

and it takes forever to download, and fails to mux.

Using Envied 2.1.0
(n_m3u8dl_re and aria2c) I would always get an error:
Code:
│   106 │   │   │   │   tokens = res                                           │
│   107 │   │   │   │   self.log.info(" + Acquired tokens...")                 │
│   108 │   │   │                                                              │
│ ❱ 109 │   │   │   cache.set(tokens, expiration=tokens["expires_in"])         │
│   110 │   │   │                                                              │
│   111 │   │   │   self.authorization = f"Bearer {tokens['access_token']}"    │
│   112                                                                        │
╰──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────╯
KeyError: 'expires_in'
Also, would Envied/Unshackle benefit from option:

Select multiple audios for maximum compatibility with all devices
Code:
-mac, --max-audio-compatability
like the VT
https://github.com/chu23465/VT-PR?tab=readme-ov-file

to save 2 audio tracks DDP 5.1 and AAC 2.0 for compatibility with CBC/CTV?

Thank you for your effort. I will send the complete command and the responses.

Here's how it is guys; I find services tucked in various places on the web and port them over to envied. If they work for you - great; if they don't then hard luck... try another approach.

If I use a service and find an error, I will sometimes correct and post it.
If I see an update to an existing service I will collect it and post.
Usually the original authors will make their own corrections, eventually.
And normally it is just a case of waiting ....

It is well to remember service authors may not live in your country. They will have tested the service with endpoints available from where they live, which may, or may not, be the same as those available to you.
There sometime is a note in the service _init__.py that helps you discover where that was, or if there are any restrictions on the service.
(I seem to remember YTBE is/was restricted to Movies)

Noob Starter Pack. Just download every Widevine mpd! Not kidding!.
