Thanks!
I’ve already found a fix using the new RedBee extractor (https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp/pull/4479), I’m just trying to figure out what to do with the ‘fake’ streams without affecting old videos 🤔
The problem is the sound in the stream because the video without sound there is 0 problem it is fluid but as soon as you activate the sound then everything freezes but that is them the problem and not us but I say it anyway for your tests 😃
Update : It was my computer the problem, sorry x)
(The site and the live feeds are currently in trouble I think because they don’t load properly from what I see) I think I may have discovered something. I tried with Safari and I looked at what was going through the network and it’s not a Dash feed but a M3U8 feed! So there is a way to get it and there is no token as far as I can see.
Here is what I could get: https://c9851ec-rbm-hilv.fsly.cdn.ebsd.ericsson.net/L25/3bd9567b/ee1747fe.isml/.m3u8
Okay, thank you very much. I must admit that DASH and DRM protection are subjects that still escape me a little… If you need, or if you have any questions I would be delighted to help you.
This is the first time I’ve tried it. I discovered the repo while searching because YT-DL doesn’t work at all for the site and this discovery seems to work very well for VOD which is great but I was using it mainly for the Live stream. And be careful because it throws fake “m3u8” streams that are fixed and always the same… Because that’s what YT-DL does it downloads the fake streams and not the protected DASH stream. But this is the first time I’m trying it and I didn’t see any info on the live stream so I took the liberty of opening a ticket. I will test tomorrow to see if I get the same thing as you, thanks for your help
