The video is an old one about Katrina. I need it for homework. I have tried accessing it from CNN’s website but CNN in their infinite wisdom put DRM on the video that is publicly available, and I assume that is why it doesn’t work on mull, librewolf, or chromium (all show same error about neon request failed). I looked on the generic torrent sites to no avail. Any response would help, the questions are very specific to the video and it is due soon.

I assume you don’t need the absolute best in quality, but I’d try a screen capture utility.

On a Mac, QuickTime player can record sections.

I’m not sure what you mean. I need to view the video but I can’t. I am just looking for alternative viewing methods.

Oh, to me it sounded like you could access the video, it just had DRM so you couldn’t save it.
