You need a Norwegian IP to see this one. Try out ProtonVPN.
@edit: my bad, hadn't read all of your post.
Have you tried svtplay-dl --http-header "X-FORWARDED-FOR=0.0.0.0" url
? Replace 0.0.0.0
with a Norwegian IP (23.100.48.19).
@d33tah - In the last code block, I proved I can access it. I'm coming from an IP address in Sweden and it isn't region-blocked for Sweden.
@Sopor - I'll give it a go but, as demonstrated in the last code block provided, it looks specific to svtplay-dl being blocked.
@Sopor- I can access the video just fine. Sweden is not region blocked from NRK, at least not for this specific video.
@felsokning For me it is blocked as you can see in the above picture...
Btw, my name is not SopoR
, it is Sopor-
.
@Sopor- Right but the visible subtitles on the video playing proves that it's not blocked for me; which would indicate that it's not a geo-location blocking issue and the supporting evidence of the other program being able to download this specific video demonstrably contradicts that assumption, yeah?
svtplay-dl versions:
Operating system and Python version:
OS: Ubuntu 18.04LTS Python:
What is the issue:
It seems that svtplay-dl tries to download m3u8 file and gets a 403 - Forbidden. svtplay-dl suggests that geoblocking is the issue. I can watch the video in Firefox and download it via youtube-dl, so the issue seems specific to svtplay-dl. It will probably require spoofing the user-agent to get around but that doesn't seem to be a viable switch parameter in svtplay-dl.
