Support Eurosport Player

Possible to add https://www.eurosportplayer.com to youtube-dl supported websites?
I have an annually paid subscription and if it's needed please let me know.
No need to say it's a very complicated website and I deeply believe just only youtube-dl python experts are able to make a way to download its videos.

Cheers

Yes, Obviously as its name indicates it only broadcasts in European countries.

post an example of the urls you're trying to watch.
an account would be needed to work on this site, i'm getting this message when i try access any video:

It's probably encrypted with something not yet cracked, like Adobe Pass. See #14004

It's not legal. I've just receive the answer from Eurosport Customer Support. So, please skip this request because of the potential copyright issues.

Hi,

Thank you for contacting the Eurosport Player team and I apologize for the delayed answer.

From your e-mail I understand that you wish to download videos from our plate-form.
I would like to inform you that as the broadcast rights for sports events are strongly regulated, we are not allowed to let you:
Record or download videos
Obtain the event images broadcasted on our antenna
I hope you are enjoying your favorite sports on Eurosport Player.
I remain at your disposal for any further information.
Best,

Elisabeth

IMO that doesn't mean that the Eurosport Player shouldn't be supported. If the downloaded videos are not distributed online, there should not be an issue.

@beta2k if you want this service to be supported then you can open a new issue for that.
