Hi guys,

I was wondering how people who upload first webdl/webrip/etc movies/tvshows rip the video file… Is there any “official guide” how to? Some rips have HDR and DV so how they get these metadata cause I assume that just screen recording won’t get it.

WebRip is basically exactly that: capture audio/video during screening. WebDL is secret magic to tickle the streaming service for the files it sends to the browser during streaming.

Isn’t WebDL direct download? It just means the streaming service is poorly done or don’t care about security

If you get access to the media files that the streaming service sends you without recording it yourself it’s WebDL. Could also be done by decrypting media you “downloaded” in their app to watch later.

From official scene web rules: 19.5.8) Format refers to whether the release is transcoded (WEBRip.x264/x265) or untouched (WEB.H264/WEB.H265). Source: https://scenerules.org/html/2020_WDX.html

WEBDL is a p2p tag. Scene only uses WEB or WEBRip tags.
