tried yt-dlp, with browser cookies. Tried the developer tools trick too (network serction). None has worked
Try How do I pass cookie to yt-dlp.
As install YT-dlp on your command line, (including ffmpeg). Log in to your site, and use this section to pass the cookie to your YT-dlp command with your video link.
I don’t think yt-dlp can crack DRM… most sites don’t bother using it.
Video DownloadHelper?
What was the error you got when you ran
yt-dlp?[generic] Extracting URL: https://www.aljazeera360.com/video/742807 [generic] 742807: Downloading webpage WARNING: [generic] Falling back on generic information extractor [generic] 742807: Extracting information ERROR: Unsupported URL: https://www.aljazeera360.com/video/742807
Can you watch the video on the page? If so I would use OBS Studio to screen record it. If not, no idea, good luck!
Searching “github download webpage video” gives this and more results to try.
Does that work? I suspect the DRM content would not show.
Some streaming is not possible even when you can view it on the monitor.
I suspect that happens on the video driver or Windows rendering subsystem - where OBS would capture. I had issues like that trying to stream to my TV IIRC.
A quick search on OBS gives me - supporting my suspicion - https://obsproject.com/forum/threads/unable-to-record-hulu-and-other-drm-digital-rights-media-protected-content.130979/
Ahhh makes sense, I couldn’t tell what the OP was trying to record but OBS might not work for it after all
I always try yt-dlp first with the website URL. If that doesn’t work I either try the URL shown in the network tab in the debug menu or try to find a video source URL by inspecting the video html container.
Once I’ve found a URL using one of those methods I again throw it at yt-dlp
