Getting started

To do this properly, you need to understand how those websites work.

For the shake of simplicity fellow "pirates", they utilize m3u wiki link

  • m3u8 99% of the time.

You will also need yt-dlp install it if you don't have already

Example on utilizing this knowledge
  • Go to your favorite streaming site
  • Simple press F12
  • Go to Network
  • Select XHR (XMLHttpRequest)
  • Filter URLs for m3u8
    • If you find more than one, just test them out, you will soon find the trick on your own :)
  • Copy the URL
  • Open a terminal and type yt-dlp <your-copied-link>

Do it Ethically

Some may call us pirates, which I find really cool

But the true evil Pirates/criminals are the ones that keep the power to themselves and don't share it with others

Information is the only true power, and it should be free(free as in free speech) for all.

Could someone try to download the episode from this site and tell me how to do it? https://www.rtp.pt/play/p11517/e679436/taskmaster

I can't do it, it seems it's pulling the video in chunks and I can't get the link for the full thing

For Android you guys should check out Seal

I don't think it goes as elaborate as the above post, but it works on every site yt-dlp does.

can you download the full paywall hidden videos from manyvids with this? If not, is there a way to do that?

What about using 1DM on Android?
