DRM protected video streams are being skipped (udemy-dl not downloading videos)

[nChauhan91]

When i'm trying to download any course any videos that have their URLs starting in blob:https://URL_UDEMY are being skipped.

the lectures are recognized but only assets in that chapter are downloaded. I have all requirements including ffmpeg installed & working in command line.

[i] : Downloading chapter : (2) [i] : Chapter (02 JavaScript Refresher) [i] : Found (13) lecture(s).

[i] : Downloading asset(s) [i] : Downloading (022 next-gen-js-summary.pdf) [+] : Asset : '022 next-gen-js-summary.pdf' (already downloaded)

Lectures were found but not downloaded

• OS Platform: macOS Big Sur & Windows 10
• Python Version - Python 3

[pvnnpavan]

is there a way we can fix this issue. . I can download one video at a time with Internet download manager..

[Puyodead1]

you cant "fix" DRM encrypted videos. the whole point is to prevent people from downloading the content. If you read the conversation above, that's exactly whats been discussed.

[rijenkii]

The only idea I have is adding an optional flag to enable downloading of the encrypted videos and just leave the decryption to the user. Still very inconvinient, but at least isn't illegal I think.

[Puyodead1]

Yeah, or add in decryption of the videos but the user has to provide the keys, that also shouldn't be a problem since it's not actually "cracking" keys automatically.

Any Step-by-Step Workarounds found for this issue ?

you cant workaround DRM... idk why people think it can be "fixed" or "worked around" (legally at least).

Coincidentally the Widevine CDM RSA keys were leaked a few months ago as part of a chrome extension but Widevine is removing support for those the old versions on the 31st of this month which will render them useless.

You need to understand that circumventing DRM is considered piracy and you won't find legal "workarounds", if program authors even wanted to add a feature to circumvent the DRM, they would get DMCA takedowns, the GitHub repository for the extension mentioned above was already issued a DMCA Takedown by google. There's no legal "fix" or "workaround" and you won't get step by step instructions here to rip content.

Hell, I payed for courses, and I think I should be able to downloaded them offline to view whenever I want, but circumventing DRM is a risky thing to mess with.

waiting for the 31st and after that i will check if something can be done or not otherwise i will close the issue as won't fix or may be something else can be done but will see. if in case i 'm able to download the content, still i won't commit the code as it might get DMCA Takedown, but i will try to upload some where else the solution (that is if i 'm able to find a way to download the content).

I have the same issue,

Please help.

[iampikus]

@r0oth3x49 I think it would be great if you make it possible to download the courses as is in encrypted form (video.mp4+audio.mp4) to decrypt them in the future. software protection will be cracked anyway, it's just a matter of time :)

i 'm fine with going that way, but the issue is you will understand that many other will also but most of the users going to report that videos are corrupt/encrypted etc even with big printed syntax that ask user if he/she wants to download the video in encrypted form.

but nice idea i will try implementing that and will also check if we it's not illegal.

[iampikus]

The instructions will say that the courses that are protected by the DRM are downloaded in an unchanged encrypted form. It is not illegal to download encrypted files. It is illegal to publish code that allows you to bypass the DRM protection. You don't have to do this, your application just downloads media without decryprting it. the sooner you do it, the better - widivine decryptor chrome extension is still working.

[luizconrado]

I would truly like to have a solution (and a small guide) to decrypt the videos/courses I have purchased. Do you think you will be able to achieve it @r0oth3x49? Thank you very much for your time and effort!

In the US, circumventing DRM for the sake of backing up is explicitly protected by the DMCA. Distribution of any tool to do that however, isn't. A catch-22 was introduced by the DMCA to bull-satisfy legal, effectively preventing us from backing up content but allowing us to. If we develop our own tools and do not distribute the content or tools, then it is legal. IP-protection laws have long been screwed in the US but again, it is indeed legal for a US-citizen to backup content you own (such as any Udemy video you legally purchase).

Edit:

I forgot to add that IP-owners love to bully people. Even if @r0oth3x49 provided a tool under educational purposes (legal), they could still file DMCA Takedowns-after-Takedowns against their GitHub account to not only annoy but agitate their standing with GitHub. IP-owners have often had legal things taken down anyway. Only in the past five years have US-courts started to realize that a Takedown is not proof of infringement, especially under Fair Use (but that gets murky). I'm betting that Udemy is the bullying type, considering how grossly inflated their prices are and their past history. Still, this kind of DRM won't stop any piracy at all and only gets in legit users' way. Most recently, a new bill has been introduced called the Fair Repair Act. Some are arguing one of its core claims against artificial limitations such as those introduced by the DMCA or by DRM might help to allow more easy access to backup tools for the purpose of backing up DRM-limited "protected" content for our own private use. Another point that many are beginning to push forward is that the DMCA and DRM are unduly prohibitive against people who cannot develop their own tools to exercise their legal right to backup and that it presents an unreasonable burden on the end user to develop tools just to be able to exercise their rights.

Edit:

I also forgot to add that exemptions to the law in the US can expire... Yeah, how screwed is that? By the way, the personal backup was also built on shaky ground as well and few exemptions. It is also generally accepted that it does not cover situations such as streamed content, as experienced with Udemy! It's best to avoid it for now until DRM is realized as more harmful than good all around.

Edit:

Personally, I won't buy DRM-protected content anymore. I haven't in many years, depending upon the type of content. Movies, no, audio, yes (exemptions in my case), games, yes (again, exemptions in my case), etc. So I'm done with Udemy, now.

[gizmoplanetng]

We are done with Udemy or any DRM-protected content.

[RainerHaessner]

I won't be buying any more content from Udemy.

It's not that trivial, I believe. Of course, I used the possibility to download the content. This offers much more freedom of use. And of course there is the permanent question "what is the meaning of 'lifetime'"? Now, after downloading the lessons is not possible anymore, I crawled a little bit (I assume, everybody here did the same) and the result was really scaring. There are some sources, which offer to download the content for free. You may even request for a topic, if the required is not available at the downlaod source. Of course I am annoyed about the current state. But on the other hand, Udemy can only exist if enough users pay. In the end, we gnash our teeth, but we should be grateful for the protection of the content.

Yeaaah no. Enough users do exist paying. For example... I did. This is a tired bull response given by publishers. It's been seen through, too. I can literally create my own CA cert, import it at system level, sign a fake kernel driver and have full system access any time I want. Doesn't stop a thing. It's just a hassle for legitimate users to do with what they want with the things they want.

Edit: We should probably get back on topic. "Boo DRM is in the way again."

didn't get your point the last one

[erickvh]

It's happening the same to me right now, in my case, I download my own courses due to my internet connection sometimes goes down and I prefer to have the courses in a better resolution when this happens, so this is a little bit sad.

Anyway thanks for your work on this amazing tool @r0oth3x49

[a8uh35h4m]

Hi @r0oth3x49 bhai,

Should we just go ahead and close this ticket as no solution available ? I think it was a good run for whatever period this worked.

[joaobrasil65]

I too need a workaround simply because I've paid for the courses....all of the ones I want offline....and I have an internet connection only for small bursts of time...I can't use Udemy online to do the courses as needed. I don't want free content. I just want offline content. If anyone can help me with this use case, I would be grateful. If Udemy simply gave us the same functionality as the Android app, we would be good to go. You can contact me on Discord @ SirGarbagelo#3805

There is a workaround, you can use any android emulator and use the android app on it to download the course, till this issue is fixed

[joaobrasil65]

I do some Android Development and I have done that but it is extremely extremely slow and I cannot seem to correct that in the emulator. But thanks for the thought.

Make sure you're running the x86-64 build of Android's image and turn on hardware acceleration. (SVM, etc, look into hardware virtualization for your hardware). If it is still slow, you've either not got it configured correctly or your CPU is far too old for hardware virtualization.

[joaobrasil65]

The emulator runs fine. It is just the Udemy app in the emulator. If you have an emulator set up, see if you can download videos to the app on a Windows emulator.. I essentially cannot. It just says downloading but it does not actually do it , it seems. I've tried various emulators and none work. I'm wondering if Udemy has somehow disabled this function on an emulator?

The Android API can usually tell an app if they're running in an emulator, so I'm sure they're going to do that. I took your comment of 'slow' as the emulator.

No, udemy-dl can still rip non-DRM stuff, including files. Some authors have begun to upload their videos as attachments in response to people asking for offline, udemy-dl can download those. >_> It can also rip subtitles, which I find quite useful. Most sources I obtain from (what I've purchased) don't supply subtitles, or they forcibly embed their own and such, while udemy-dl can still give me the subtitles.

I pay for all the courses I want but I can't download them and that is a problem because I have intermittent internet. Someone has solved this problem because some of these tutorial download sites are still getting courses. I have example sites.

I will have to resort to using them if a solution is not found. I am always open to any suggestions here.................................. I don't want free stuff. Just offline access to what I've paid for.

I understand, but you cannot complain about it here, you have to ask Udemy for the access. Sorry to tell you that...

So udemy went full subscription model mode. Not surprised at that move, udemy is no longer a viable option for learning.
