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.

None of that is going to help at this time with the DRM problems. The reason you can watch via regular browsers is that Google supplied all the legitimate browser companies back in October with the latest Widevine CDM. When Google revoked the old CDM on January 25th, the browsers continued to work right out of the box. Google is not going to supply a company like DVDFab with the updated CDM and DRM keys because they are trying to make it difficult to download videos from streamers. That's the whole reason they change the CDM/DRM once or twice a year.
Each streamer seems to act a little different with this DRM problem. Some streamers endlessly analyze, others download and then fail at the end, some reduce your resolution down to SD, possibly Netflix causes login problems. Etc., Etc. Peacock, by my own experience, doesn't do anything bad yet. I'm expecting that to change sometime in the near future.
Just be patient. We'll get through this. The Developers are working non-stop even through one of the biggest holidays of their year.

Thanks Cat4U, you broke it down simply saying the CDM/DRM changes works differently and most cases for streamers are not the same for everybody. As Germania noted Netflex is a strange problem for some....for me I can't download anything and get that ' Oh no! This title currently isn't available to watch in your country' I know it's a bunch of crap and related to the DRM change and a waste of energy to post logs. Patient is the key.....I've been with DVDfab since their birth and it says a lot that the Devs are working on this through their holiday, that never happened before and they are taking this seriously, people need to understand this.
I don't know if this is relevant or not.
I managed to get StreamFab 6.1.6.5 working almost perfectly.
I found out that a registry key "HKCU\Software\DVDFab\StreamFab (x64)" with a string key "StartTime" is created when you run StreamFab for the first time.
By deleting this key and restarting the program I was able to login to Netflix and download videos.
However I am only able to download older videos. The recently added ones fail to download.

Hi pro
Does it work and download 1080p with old movies on primevideo.com?

You didn't read the red banner at the top of the forum, did you?
The DRM issue is NOT fixed yet, despite what the update Changelogs imply. If you try to download something that was released before January 25th, there is a good chance that you will get it but that is not an absolute. If you try to download something that was released on or after January 25th, you'll be extremely lucky if you get it. In both cases, the video resolution and audio bitrate and type, may or may not be what you thought it would be. Those are the facts. Things are not going to change until the Developers completely crack the DRM and fix the problem. This happens once or twice every year when Google and the streamers decide to mess with downloader's heads by switching out the DRM. Get used to it. This is commonly referred to as "Cat and Mouse games".
The "StartTime" registry key has nothing to do with logging in.
I can download onder things on Netflix but only quality 540p and lower, Some old things begin also to have a problem with new drm,
I have also try to copy the widevine dll file of the last Chrome version also and put it in the streamfab folder in the C:/ map, that helpt also for Some downloads that before not download and after the dll file begin to download.

Don't do that. It will not fix anything, and it leaves you open to screwing up StreamFab when the DRM is fixed. StreamFab checks that the proper CDM is installed and in the correct location every time StreamFab is started. It does not need your incorrect assistance.

In hindsight I probably should not have posted that.
You are right, it probably does not make any difference.
