I confirm this is a problem. I cannot figure out how to download or get around these restrictions. I did find out if I set my VPN to London, I can get around certain blocking rules but not the ones for VideoJS .vod files using the playlist. |

I tried exporting the cookies (after the dumb email list signup) and reading them into Anyone here have any luck figuring it out yet? |

I think I figured it out. Use the youtube-dl --referer 'https://freedomplatform.tv/alex-jones-behind-the-pandemic-how-the-globalist-agenda-will-cause-a-massive-world-depression-destroy-society/' 'https://vod.freedomplatform.tv/mp4/raw/Alex%20Jones%20160920_HLSprofile.smil/playlist.m3u8'No need for authenticating, cookies, or spoofing location. |

I wasn't able to download the example you highlighted. However, I was able to download other videos using the '--referer' flag. Thanks for pointing this feature out. |
I removed a newline character from the example, works now. |

I get a HTTP 400 Bad Request error when I try it. ``[fedora@localhost Videos]$ youtube-dl --referer 'https://freedomplatform.tv/alex-jones-behind-the-pandemic-how-the-globalist-agenda-will-cause-a-massive-world-depression-destroy-society/' 'https://vod.freedomplatform.tv/mp4/raw/Alex%20Jones%20160920_HLSprofile.smil/playlist.m3u8' |
Not sure, it's working for me on version This is working for me: youtube-dl --ignore-config --referer 'https://freedomplatform.tv/alex-jones-behind-the-pandemic-how-the-globalist-a
genda-will-cause-a-massive-world-depression-destroy-society/' 'https://vod.freedomplatform.tv/mp4/raw/Alex%20Jones%20

Still no good. ``[fedora@localhost Videos]$ youtube-dl --ignore-config --verbose --referer 'https://freedomplatform.tv/alex-jones-behind-the-pandemic-how-the-globalist-agenda-will-cause-a-massive-world-depression-destroy-society/' 'https://vod.freedomplatform.tv/mp4/raw/Alex%20Jones%20160920_HLSprofile.smil/playlist.m3u8' ERROR: ffmpeg exited with code 1 |
Hmm, that IP address is Australian. When I connect I get a UK IP (even though I am in North America). Maybe try using a VPN to the US or UK; like @rhawk301 suggested. Also check your web browser dev tools, maybe you need to use a different resource identifier (i.e. URL) for your region than what I have in my example. |

Description
WRITE DESCRIPTION HERE
FreedomPlatform.tv is no longer allowing direct access to the 'm3u8' file, nor its related 'ts' files. It seems they have implemented on their Wordpress site 'VideoJS' to serve up access to the m3u8 and ts files only in a browser context.
For instance :
Executing 'wget' on the m3u8 yields a 403 error.
