sometimes one of the requests is a m3u8 playlist, or something similar.

it may contain urls of thousands of chunks.

if you download all of them you can concat them.

that worked for me for some streams a few years ago, but there is probably an easier way 🤷🏻‍♂️

videos? they should totally be watchable at that point.

ok, yes, i suppose i should not have mentioned the scripts without attaching a warning.

i’m still grateful though that someone put in the effort to write 'em, because they finally solved a problem for me that i couldn’t solve for years.

i guess now it’s “the communities” turn to properly document and dissect those scripts for the larger user base.

i’m certainly not angry with whoever wrote those scripts because he didn’t put in even more effort for free.

but i do get your point (i think) and agree.

Well, jeah, i usually don’t like those too much either.

But then i just open the url and read the script line for line.

I got it running on my two kubuntu 24.04 machines using the scripts described in this video:

The process was still a bit fiddly but i got all three affinity apps running now.
