We are still experiencing DRM issues with some of the StreamFab download modules. If you can only download videos at lower resolutions than you could before January 25th 2024, please be patient as the developers are still working on fixing the issues.
Other symptoms that you are dealing with a DRM problem could be "Failure to access video" errors or endless analysis.
Please refrain from posting about these specific errors as we are of course well aware and working on them. Feel free to post an issue you think might not be related to the DRM problem but bear in mind that they will be treated with a very low priority until the DRM issues are resolved.
The following modules should be fully back to normal (state before January 25th 2024):
AbemaTVApple TV+CrunchyrollDisney+HuluITVX
JoynLeminoNHK+OnlyFansParamount+
RTL+ShahidTubiU-Next
These modules are back to normal for content added prior to January 25th 2024 and lower resolutions for newer content:
AmazonMax
* Netflix content added after January 25th 2024 cannot be downloaded at all. It is back to normal for everything else.
Regarding Peacock , the content that cannot be downloaded is anything posted after February 22nd 2024. Anything Prior can still be downloaded as usual.

Can't log into Smithsonian channel using Spectrum
Using 5.0.5.6 for Windows. When I to go to www.smithsonianchannel.com and click on something, it asks me to log in with my TV provider, which is Spectrum. When I click on Spectrum a new tab opens, blank, and the label on the tab is "about:blank#blocked". How can I get the page to show Spectrum's login instead of this blank page?
Let's start with the most basic question first and move on from there. Have you paid Spectrum for the Smithsonian Channel to be part of your cable TV lineup?

I have Spectrum too, and Smithsonian is part of the lineup
It's not letting the adobe authenticator through......every provider is blocked.
Yep, that's the problem again. The Adobe problem happens every once in awhile. I don't have Spectrum but I'm locked out of Smithsonian, too, on Comcast/Xfinity. Previous Adobe problems with Xfinity that were talked about here were with TCM and Telemundo. I haven't checked in awhile and so I don't know if they ever got fixed. I have no problem viewing Smithsonian on a regular Chrome browser or downloading via Tubedigger. Since no DRM is involved you should be able to use straight YT-dlp as long as you provide the MSO-related command parameters.
--ap-mso MSO Adobe Pass multiple-system operator (TV provider) identifier, use --ap-list-mso for a list of available MSOs
--ap-username USERNAME Multiple-system operator account login
--ap-password PASSWORD Multiple-system operator account password. If this option is left out, yt-dlp will ask interactively
That's probably the problem with SF. They are not providing that info. More times than not, for me anyway, using the Adobe authenticator works to get a streamer. And then you have times like this where it just doesn't. The developers need to figure out why. I'll post a log later.

Thanks in advance!
on your regular browser, once you are signed in to your TV provider and can view the locked episode,
does copying the unlocked episode URL from your regular browser and pasting it into streamfabs browser work ??

Over a year since I originally opened this topic and it still doesn't work. On my normal browsers I can log into my Spectrum account and watch Smithsonian Channel at will. But in Streamfab, now version 6.1.6.8 when I try to authorize with Spectrum I get a new page with the about:blank#blocked as the tab name. Can we try to fix this please?
After the DRM problem is over I will bring this up with the developer. In the meantime, I stand by everything I wrote back in August of last year in message # 7 above. For some streamers the Adobe authenticator works and with others it doesn't. Whether this is an SF bug, an Adobe bug, or a streamer bug, I have no idea.
