I'm hoping someone might be able to offer some thoughts on how to work around this.The latest version of StreamFab 6.0.0.3 doesn't seem to allow downloading of files from a particular source I have used in the past (running these as DRM MPD downloads).I am seeing a message within StreamFab on the tab where we're browsing to the content to allow it to be analysed for downloading:"We've detected that your browser version may not be able to play some of our video content. We recommend that you update your browser to the latest version as soon as possible."Additionally, in the bar across the top, the "Analysis Failed" can be clicked to reveal "Sorry, video analysis failed - this video is DRM protected".I have the DRM MPD downloader purchased and licensed, and have used it previously.Any assistance on this issue would be greatly appreciated!

On Wednesday I used DRM MPD to download a few titles from Canadian websites Crave and CTV.They all downloaded perfectly. This was using version 6001.On Thursday I updated to 6003 and tried downloading again from websites Crave and CTV, all failed.I reverted back to version 6001, expecting positive downloads, but again all failed!I may be wrong but it appears that a change has either happened on the respective websites, or …….?I plan to try again today using 6003 and if unsuccessful I will add logs to my next post.

Tried again today to DRM MPD download Alaska Daily episode from CTV.ca, and it failed time after time using v6.0.0.3.See attached log. DRM MPD.docx.zip

Same problem on hbogo. I can download 3 free movie before I buy lifetime. Now when I buy lifetime, It can't download.

It's not the same as HBOMax which you do not need to use the DRM module. Think you are having a different issue then the original post.HBO Max Vs. HBO Go Vs. HBO Now: What Are the Key Differences?

FWIW, 6.0.0.3 is working fine with PLEX TV, which is DRM MPD. It could be something unique to your preferred websites?radiahI'm interested in what you said regarding your downloading from PLEX using DRM MPD.....If you don't mind my asking..... are you downloading from a free account..... or have you upgraded to a paying account..... which I believe they call a "PLEX PASS" subscription.....Also..... does PLEX download in 1080p or just 720p..... and will it download with subtitles?.....Thanks!

Unfortunately in Belgium no DRM encoded websites are working anymore. Streamfab keeps analysing but doesn't start to download. I don't think every provider changed his way of protecting in the same time so it should be on the side of DVDFab. Turning back to version 6.0.0.1 doesn't help neither :(

StreamFab 6.0.0.3 not downloading DRM MPD files

atrdriver

Same thing for me, will not download MPD files from www.AMC.com . Have not had any problems prior to 6.0.0.3, so now mine won't download from AMC nor ESPN+. How about getting this fixed?

Per K

Well that explains why i could not get it to work, because in an earlier topic it was said that Viaplay should work, but the MPD DRM would not activate.

Hmm, tried with 6.0.0.2 on Viaplay as well and that one does also not work. So obviously they guy who claimed that StreamFab should work there was lying.

Regarding ITV and other websites for the UK - you should find that if you subscribe or download via Prime Video Channels rather than their own website you'll get better results. Britbox for example - 720 via their own website but 1080 via Prime Video

phelings

The MPD problem is known, the developer needs time to work it out, please wait, thanks.
Mona

Will that include being able to get 1080 from My5 ?

Midnight-Man

I've updated to 6.0.0.4 just now.

Unfortunately, DRM MPD still fails. I used the original and same item I reported not working in the original post.

A new log file is attached.

Many thanks for looking into this issue!

warham28

Still the same issue... metadata failed to analysis ! Mona, really? team doesn't fix any problem from mpd drm, just vip services, how many months? years ? need to wait? i have the feeling dvdfab don't own this software, it's the same than y2mate, same issue... i have the feeling dvdfab bought this software from another compagny and redistribute it... and it's why it's so long...

i got rellay frustrated right now..

Same thing with mubi.com & metrograph.com, fyi. (Did work now doesn't)

ALSO on MUBI the SF browser now prompts this message to display:
"Please update your browser by December 6th, to keep watching MUBI."

What worries me a bit is that I don't think anything has changed about DRM encoding among the providers. For example, I can still download from a channel where I used to be able to download with another solution using that alternative application. It is only via Streamfab that it no longer works. I fear the programmer made a fatal mistake somewhere, ...

rdeweer

If that was the case, one could potentially uninstall, and reinstall a 5.X.X.X client, and it would work, yes?

rdeweer

I fear not. To be honest: I have already tried to go back to a version 5.x and this did not help (now it was not a clean install though). I think there is a part being processed on DVDFab's servers and maybe things are going wrong there.

A little feedback and communication from DVDFab would be welcome.

I myself have purchased Streamfab to save a few local DRM transmissions () offline and this worked very well. Until this summer suddenly this functionality came to an end (the broadcasts don't want to play anymore and aren't being analyzed -> it must be something with the built-in browser). but unfortunately we get no further than 'our programmer is going to have a look at it'. By now we are almost half a year further ...

Too bad ...

rdeweer

Feedback was given by Mona (post #18) as noted that this was a known problem and needs time to be addressed/fixed.

Appears that this did not start happening with users until V6.0.0.3, so that is a starting point for them to see what changed. But since V6.0.0.0 was a totally reconstructed version of V5.X.X.X and different as suggested in how it works with DRM MPD's, don't think falling back to version 5 is possible once version 6 is installed. (Been here before, use caution with upgrades)

I have a hypothesis on the rash of MPD DRM problems going on in the last two weeks. It is purely speculation and I have no way to prove it at this point. Time will prove me right or wrong. As I've mentioned previously in another message, Google is deprecating the Widevine CDM come December 6th. They released the new CDM to Chrome 107 on October 25th and then released the code to all other Chrome-based browsers on November 15th. As far as I have been able to research, Google has not placed an embargo on using the new CDM until December 6th. That is just the day that the old Wideviine CDM will no longer work. With the new CDM released to all the Google-approved Chrome-based browsers on November 15th (roughly two weeks ago) it could be possible that some of these smaller non-VIP MPD video streamers have already made the jump to the new CDM thinking that their user base should now have the means to use it if they are using the latest version of a Chrome-based browser. Time will tell.

I was thinking the same thing... I have been getting prompts by webapps that a new version is available and to click here to upgrade and reload (kinda like the WhatsApp webapp updates)

Happened with Sling.com and after that. i wasn't able to download the only show i use it for... Maybe i should try other shows and see...

Just fyi,

I had a few problems with shows in series I normally get off Dish (History Channel & others) not being able to download in last week and got a "your browser is not supported" message.

I don't get a lot from Dish and have enough stuff in queue that I'm working on to keep me busy.

I also didn't think it'd be much use to post it here with logs since it's a provider done thru StreamFab's generic app and I doubt the StreamFab programmers would give a good response to that specific issue or reconcile the problem.

Ya same. Sling was already super annoying to grab things with StreamFab and then this happened. So i finally said fuck it and got myself a US Phone number, created a US Amazon account and bought the latest season of Life After Lockup. Once again proving that we "pirates" are not cheap ass thieves. We don't mind paying for shit if we can keep it and be able to play it on any device and with any player we want...

Installed now version 6.0.0.7, but DRM MPD download is still not possible anymore. I used to use following sites:

and other similiar archive streaqming sides, but at none of them downloading is possible anymore. But it used to work until mid- November 22 !

When can we expect a fix ? I mean we all paid money for this function, which is mostly not working anymore ?

Thanks!

Midnight-Man

Installed now version 6.0.0.7, but DRM MPD download is still not possible anymore.
AndiK

Just to report in based on my original question in this thread, I also have updated to 6.0.0.7, and am also still not able to download DRM MPD files from the site I usually use.

If another log is required to assist in diagnosing, please let me know and I will post one ASAP.

Mona

The DRM MPD problem still needs time to work out.
