Hello! I’d like to write a script to download videos from streamingcommunity.estate from a given video URL, and to do this I need the m3u8 file url. Currently I manually go to the network tab to search for it, but I’d like the script to do this automatically. Do you know of a way to achieve this? Bash or Python if possible, otherwise any other method will do fine. Thanks in advance!

hi, sorry for the late reply! I finally wrote this nodejs script:
the first argument passed to the script is the url of the webpage. The script uses the puppeteer module to “fake” a browser, in order to receive all the network calls and so on, and then will search through them for the m3u8 playlist. It is very specific and only works on this website, but it can be easily adapted for other websites as well
Thanks heaps for reply. Legend. After using chatgpt and bingchat I got the script cleaned up and working but unfortunately no output. 😥 I dont need the content, I just like to defeat these websites. Oh well. Dont want to bother you. My command was “node your-script.js https://streamingcommunity.express/watch/3330”
uhm that’s strange, I just tried executing it on your link and it worked. have you waited at least 5 seconds after running the script?
Thanks for reply, appreciate it. The thing is when i try your code it errors out. So I had to use bingchat or chatgpt to clean it up. Any chance you could upload your file somewhere please?
