How to record off of discoverygo

 

When I go to the below site, it brings up a video

https://www.discoverygo.com/rattled/...re-comes-baby/

and when I identify what requests are going through I see an m3u8 but when I try to input that into ffmpeg I get "HTTP error 403 Forbidden"

though when I try to download the materials directly through firefox, it works which makes me think that it's based on a cookie inside the browser for authorization

i.e., is there some way to make ffmpeg run with the cookies in my browser?

Look at the Page source. there is an m3u8 file there it will be similar to this:

https:\/\/dscusvod-vh.akamaihd.net\/i\/longform\/2016-02\/02\/149845.001.02.002-25603-,500k,200k,350k,800k,1200k,1600k,2200k,3000k,4500k ,.mp4.csmil\/master.m3u8?hdnts=exp=1456202436~acl=\/*~hmac=91ead527d3d6be8b01be5f78b843a2ba69a8ba9e0f5 320e892c9e362592c7776

Open it in notepad and replace \/ with simply /. I pasted that url into FFMpeg and it's working.
