Description of your issue, suggested solution and other information

I was wondering if there is a way to download an "decrypted" version of a video if you have the credentials.

The link above is an ISM feed

If i give my credentials, the file is downloaded without any problem (to the ISMV format) but is unreadable due to the DRM protection.

Since i am authenticated to the website, i have access to what seem to be the license key

Is there a way to "pass it" to Youtube-DL ? i can't find anything related to ISM protection on the documentation

Not possible.
