Re: Trying to Download VoD from CBC Sports / CBC Olympics for Rio 2016

You have to install the following extension(s) to continue: 'curl'

Anyone know what curl extension is needed for this?

When I try the version of PHP I used for 2014, I consistently get,

KSV Adobe HDS Downloader
Processing manifest info....
Access Denied! Unable o download the manifest.

This happens no matter how quickly I do a copy-paste-save-and run of the HDS Link capture.

What version of PHP are you who are getting successful captures using?
I reverted back to the previous version of PHP that I used in 2014. I believe it was unable to download the manifest because it wasn't recognizing the quality parameter I was setting. I tried --quality high instead of a bitrate and it was able to download, but all I got was the keyframes. I had run into this problem in the past, but I can't recall how I got around it.
Any tips?
