Hi, so I am largely unfamiliar with the processes reporting\remediation here -- I see the account-needed label, if needed I'll help with a burner account if needed to do work on this. |
|
For many of their series, a free account is all that is needed. The series I am trying to download doesn't require a premium account. |
|
I saw @remitamine say he couldn't repro on another listing - I can also get the listings just fine for the same fairy tail episode. But trying to download the episode doesn't work. .\youtube-dl.exe -F https://vrv.co/watch/GY8V590JY/Fairy-Tail:The-Fairy-Tail PS C:\Users\Desktop\youtubedl> .\youtube-dl.exe https://vrv.co/watch/GY8V590JY/Fairy-Tail:The-Fairy-Tail --ffmpeg-location C:\Users\Desktop\youtubedl\ffmpeg-20170620-ae6f6d4-win64-static\bin\ffmpeg.exe
If it isn't supported, it isn't supported and that is fine just hoping for some clarity is all. |

Seems like it will work for some free content - sometimes that is. But when it gets to any premium content it no longer does -- I have tried passing in username\password and cookies\user agent, both resulting in the same error below: |
|
I wrote literally almost the exact same thing to keepvid support about vrv.co premium content. But I added the process to decode premium content as well. They use Ellation Player and now after defeating their last way of encoding they have moved on to base64 encrypting the video string in the url. |
|
I can show you how to decode premium links but it's a multistep process with the way they hide their URLs now, but once you get the raw URL you can download any content they have. Message me and I'll show you how. |

Hello, I suppose the question portion of this is: is VRV supported\compatible? I did try and perform a .\youtube-dl.exe --list-extractors in which case VRV and VRV:SERIES did show up however I have not had much success.
I am trying to download episodes\video files from VRV [https://vrv.co] For example: [https://vrv.co/series/GR751KNZY/Attack-on-Titan] I have tried just passing in the URL as the content should be viewable with just a regular user account, but also passed in my premium account creds and or a cookies.txt and user agent (I've tried individually as well as different combinations)
