Description

I was trying to download a video from website https://arte.tv/. Before, youtube-dl was working well with this site, but not anymore. I tried to re-download previously (successfully) downloaded videos, but I still receive the same error. I guess the page format changed.

Thanks for your job.

Although the log is not exactly the same, see #30878: in particular https://github.com/ytdl-org/youtube-dl/issues/30878#issuecomment-1141949627.

Sure they do, so much wonderful stuff: https://www.arte.tv/en/

They even have full concerts, e.g. Rolling stones – A bigger bang https://www.arte.tv/de/videos/105608-000-A/rolling-stones-a-bigger-bang/

I'd really apprechiate you looking into this. :D

Greetz and thank you laryllian

I've found a very easy workaround for this arte.tv problem with their API. No need to do any updates, download new PY files, or switch to a different code/app. After hours and hours of googling, I found a casual remark that just said, "API 2 simply means that you need to find the m3u8 URL."

So basically, all one has to do is google how to find find the URL for a blob video in your specific browser (the routines are a little different in Firefox and Chrome, respectively). Once you've found it, you only need to fetch the URL for the m3u8 file and paste it into youtube-dl, done.

oblab commented 2 years ago

on firefox, open Developer Tools, go to Media tab, search for mp4 file, the copy the url

I just figured out that https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp appears to work, just in case somebody needs a solution urgently. I hope, though, that the support can be added to youtube-dl proper.

Simply fetch the original vtt subs:

yt-dlp "https://www.arte.tv/en/videos/067103-000-A/mariupol/" --skip-download --write-subs --sub-langs en

and use another tool to convert them to .srt (I found fairly recent :wink: releases of SubtitleEdit to work OK for the task 👍 ) ...

dirkf commented 1 year ago

As the PR for the yt-dlp extractor has been merged, the only reason not to update the yt-dl extractor is that yt-dl doesn't have the subtitle extraction API used by yt-dlp, but I see that is problematic, pending a fix for the format conversion. So:

If anyone has a replacement test video for ArteTVEmbed, please submit it. It might be like this one that is no longer valid: https://www.arte.tv/player/v5/index.php?json_url=https%3A%2F%2Fapi.arte.tv%2Fapi%2Fplayer%2Fv2%2Fconfig%2Fde%2F100605-013-A&lang=de&autoplay=true&mute=0100605-013-A

G doesn't admit to having indexed any pages with URL https://www.arte.tv/player/v5/....

Otherwise this extractor will be marked as not _WORKING.

And see updated PR #29653.

The following video https://www.arte.tv/de/videos/060738-167-A/blow-up-rainer-werner-fassbinder-in-bildern/ (ID: 060738-167-A) is claimed to be available until 01.08.2114 (though it might change without notice, which renders such availability declarations ad absurdum).

... Apparently, a "fix" for (default) format sorting (according to increasing resolution) will also be needed:

Notice how 216p has been labeled as "(best)"? Reminds me of a similar issue with the dwIE I reported here...

see updated PR https://github.com/ytdl-org/youtube-dl/pull/29653.

At its latest commit, cdcb4af1c3257d955404ac5ea34becbb2bb1b1d3, works adequately well, without addressing the format sorting issue I reported above:

... a "fix" for (default) format sorting (according to increasing resolution) will also be needed:

How true. You can imagine the back-porting process:

Think "remember to find where the formats are collected and sort them, since yt-dlp moved that to the core".
Fix a swathe of minor issues.
"Yay, the tests all pass".
Forget (1).

The PR was updated from the same code as used above and will shortly be brought into line.

Given the change in (1), a test for height or some similar metadata item needs to be included in at least one test-case for each back-ported extractor.

The following video ... is claimed to be available ...

Thanks, but that's just a normal ArteTV URL. I'm looking for a URL that matches the pattern r'https?://(?:www\.)?arte\.tv/player/v\d+/index\.php\?.*?\bjson_url=.+', eg has /player/v after the domain name and a query parameter json_url, as in the existing test URL shown above.

andreygursky commented 1 year ago

... I'm looking for a URL ...

Following works in a browser tab: https://www.arte.tv/player/v7/index.php?json_url=https://api.arte.tv/api/player/v2/config/de/060738-167-A Optional appending "?lang=de&autoplay=false&mute=0"

dirkf commented 1 year ago

Thanks, both variants of that are working with the PR code. Actually I realised that you can invent these URLs from any non-embedded URL, so I used this:

https://www.arte.tv/player/v5/index.php?json_url=https%3A%2F%2Fapi.arte.tv%2Fapi%2Fplayer%2Fv2%2Fconfig%2Fpl%2F100103-000-A&lang=pl&autoplay=true&mute=100103-000-A
