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.
Haha, nice try developer from Netflix HQ
I have never seen those questions answered because it’s a secret sauce that the streaming platforms would patch immediately if it were published. In general though, my understanding is it’s older versions of apk’s on rooted android devices with exploits that allow for harvesting the actual cached files, or in some cases the apk is deconstructed to get access to the API keys so that the files are downloaded directly, though that’s risky as it gets easier to detect a single key doing a giant pull of files faster than someone could reasonably watch the shows.
With your capitalisation of “rip” there, I nearly had a heart attack thinking something (implausibly) had signalled the end of rips from streaming platforms lol.
Sorry, I might have done that on purpose just for fun. 😅
If your web browser can play it once, it can play it any number of times. Look into Widevine decryption. Basically you load the video in a special browser, save both the video and decryption keys, then decrypt the video file.
When it’s discovered it stops working. Rippers have custom reverse engineered tooling and keep it secret.
