Description

When I use command to download a DRM video from dplay (www.discoveryplus.com) italian location, I set up this command removing /it/ part from URL.

youtube-dl.exe --add-header "Cookie:HERE I COPIED COOKIE (VERY LONG)" --no-part --restrict-filenames --referer "https:www.discoveryplus.com/" "https://www.discoveryplus.com/video/fratelli-di-crozza/stagione-4-episodio-1-del-28-febbraio-2020"

But I get this errors

verbose

I was taken cookie (very long string) from here

If you use yt-dlp, see the comment at the end of https://github.com/ytdl-org/youtube-dl/issues/31279#issuecomment-1268758543. Otherwise, you can install cookie-export add-on/extension in the browser, or just pull the st cookie from the dev tools as you did before.

I don’t understand well how and which cookie should I use. I copy manually cookie from Network tab of Development mode (Headers sub-tab)

My tests have shown that ONLY the cookie named st is indispensable for yt-dlp gaining “access” to the video:

yt-dlp --add-header "Cookie:st=eyJ0eXAiOiJKV1QiLCJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiJ9.eyJzdWIiOiJVU0VSSUQ6ZHBsYXk6MzEzNzY0NDYtOTkwMC00ODVlLWE3YjYtYTkyYzc2MDJkZWE4IiwianRpIjoidG9rZW4tNTA5ZTdiZWYtOTBmMC00ZmVjLWJlNWMtNzJhZmNiZThlYzZmIiwiYW5vbnltb3VzIjpmYWxzZSwiaWF0IjoxNjY0Njk0MzkzfQ.kH5QmwI2CH0-baBgJMGVoalTHbMcwOtH8Go_G2mEz6c" -F "https://www.discoveryplus.com/it/video/fratelli-di-crozza/stagione-4-episodio-1-del-28-febbraio-2020"

dirkf is the current and sole maintainer of the original youtube-dl project; below, in the form of summary, is what has been established in this thread:

In its present state, youtube-dl is UNABLE to perform downloading from the service (DiscoveryPlusItaly) you want it to 😭 … It can and may be fixed though (in the undefined future), as per:

General resolution of the problems observed in this issue requires two back-ports from yt-dlp:

LenientSimpleCookie, as linked above

the latest Discovery+ extractors in extractor/dplay.py.

(probably “coder’s lingo” you don’t fully understand 😉 …).

Thus, dirkf has proposed you try the forked project called yt-dlp, https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp which is a feature-richer application currently maintained by a wider team of developers and has (probably) a larger user community… I have proved that yt-dlp is (mostly) suitable for your needs, provided you use the proper, “Italian versions”, of the programme URLs…

This here is the youtube-dl issue tracker, so, as already instructed,

Post any follow-up questions regarding yt-dlp in the yt-dlp issue tracker.

so whatever queries/bugs you have regarding yt-dlp and D±IT, they should be forwarded to https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp/issues

I don’t understand well how to write cookie in correctly way using --cookies parameter. I read from FAQ but I don’t understand well how and which cookie should I use. … How should I correctly write the command … I downloaded video using your correction but video has no audio track. Is there a way to join audio and video together? … I don’t understand well how to download a specific format or download only audio track … but is there an option to download both best audio/video format and join them without write their names manually every time ?

It’s obvious you have some “usage” issues of both youtube-dl and yt-dlp, but an issue tracker isn’t meant to serve as a knowledgebase and/or user forum (although many people, not counting myself out 😉 , have/are using it thinking it is…); both apps have READ.me sections where options and their values are explained; plus, their issue trackers are searchable, meaning you can search for a “question” similar to yours; it’s highly probable someone else had the same question before and a dev or advanced user has provided answer(s)… E.g.

https://github.com/ytdl-org/youtube-dl/issues/30665#issuecomment-1069318804

(sadly, the user there hasn’t made linkification correctly, but if you just copy the URL-strings - instead of clicking on them - and “paste-and-go” them in a new tab, they should work!)

But, the easiest thing for you to do is reach out to your favourite search engine and simply ask the question there; that’s what I did and came up with: https://www.nellump.net/downloading-videos-with-youtube-dl/

uses DASH for its videos, a technology that splits the video and audio information into separate streams, making both available in varying levels of quality. You can select DASH video and audio streams by specifying both formats, separated by a plus symbol:

$ youtube-dl --format 160+140

With respect, don’t expect everything offered up to you on a plate to eat… Don’t take this the wrong way please 😄 , but if you don’t search for missing knowledge yourself, you’re likely to forget what has been spoon-fed to you by others…

Kindest regards.

Even without G Translate or having been to an Italian restaurant, I think you can correctly guess that the top bar menu commands are “Log in” and “Register” (strictly “access” [verb] and “register yourself”).

General resolution of the problems observed in this issue requires two back-ports from yt-dlp:

LenientSimpleCookie as linked above
the latest Discovery+ extractors in extractor/dplay.py.
