I just tried this, it downloads about 200mb then stops. Too bad it can't resume where it left off.
Question How to Download Recurbate Videos
- Thread starter goldenegg77
- Start date
I have been making 7day trials for a month now, when it expires you can just make a protonmail email (with a new IP using VPN) and it works perfectly.
I modified the existing Recurbate script to work with IDM (Internet Download Manager) since JDownloader doesn't seem to get past their cloudfare checks. You can get your client token for recu.me and use their API in a python script too.
Token can be found in a videos source, called "data-token" its a long hash.

What Recurbate Script?
Tutorial?
EDIT: So I have a 3 days trial. I go to a video and play it. Then I go to "view-source" and look for the long hash called "date-token".
I used your link, but it's not playing the video.I don't have windows for idm.

This will probably do what you want without anything fancy, this is what I use, I modified it slightly to copy a URL to my clipboard though, you won't need that.
it does not work for me, only black video player,nothing happens.
it downloads .m3u8 file,which is for steam type files and it not downloads full video.it just store tons of 2 second videos .ts file type.
This is source for 35 min video
Same here, only .ts file available instead of .mp4 since yesterday and slow download speed. I think website has updating something to avoid download
Yes, I'm downloading 1.2mbps now. It's only matter of time when they switching to upstore xD
yeah, none of my techniques are working in any way now either, including the API. it may be possible to adapt youtube-dl for recu.me, by having it parse the m3u8 file. you can actually download or open the m3u8 index if you have the Recurbate script, if you hit Download it will download a file called 'index.m3u8' and if you open it in a text editor it's a list of every segment of the video.
i'm gonna work on this and see what i can do but it looks like they completely removed their mp4 functionality.

I'm probably pretty dumb here but it seems like they parse some tokens into the params they use to check if the request is valid. I found just the url without any query Params does not work.
Kind of sucks as I was really hoping I could just start a download without any of query params.
Seems like they also use something to ensure you can only have 1 active stream of the same video. 2 streams of the same video just kills any attempts to download.

I see I'm not the only one with that issue.. damn.
Also got stuck with the m3u8, the url with /api/video/<id>?token=<token> or individual .ts files (which I can only download via browser, not JDownloader).
Tried the free 3 video option as well, but also there I didn't found any possiblity to download anything.
Found a script over on Sleazy Fork which might be outdated as well (at least it mentiones recu.me):
As I can only access one video a day (is there any workaround?) I have to wait until tomorrow to try
/edit
SF script was already tested and downloads only the m3u8.

I used some random temp mail provider, worked fine. But an account won't do much if you can't download the videos either 😒
You can make a script/program to parse the .m3u8 file, download all the .ts files and finally stitch them together using ffmpeg. I just tried it and it works, but it's cumbersome and sort of a shitty solution. You also have to be logged in with an account when downloading the .m3u8 file, either with a premium account or use your one daily video with a free account. The links generated when not logged in expires after 2 minutes.
they force you to buy an ultimate subscription. From now on I will record the videos myself.
Only bc as a payment option is shit. recu offers 3 days trials premium for new members, but the method with the extension "Stream Recorder"
takes too long. 4gb took me 1h.

lets say you have the m3u8 file with all the .ts urls. How do you stitch them together?
you're right it came after few hours.
For anyone looking for recorder I have been using one called "CTBrec", good for managing all the models. Maybe there is better alternative haven't looked at anything since this has been working great. You can find it on mastodon, there is discord channel too. But I still would rather download it as recording all the models takes too much internet traffic.

ffmpeg and yt-dlp should be able to parse the m3u8, download all segments and stitch them together automatically for you, but I don't know how to make it work. Every request gets 404'd by the host, no matter what http headers I set.
Here's how I did it:
Parse the .m3u8 file using whatever language you prefer. Skip the lines starting with '#' and download all the segments. Remember that you might have to set some http headers (user agent, origin and host) in order for mediafront not to block your request.
Create a .txt file containing all the file names. For example, if you've downloaded seg-1-v1-a1.ts and seg-2-v1-a1.ts then print
file 'seg-1-v1-a1.ts', file 'seg-2-v1-a1.ts', and so on, to filelist.txt.Once you've downloaded all the segments and have your .txt file ready, run ffmpeg with
ffmpeg -f concat -i filelist.txt -c copy out.ts and then one more time with ffmpeg -i out.ts -acodec copy -vcodec copy out.mp4.Maybe someone who's better at ffmpeg knows how to convert it to mp4 in one pass, but I couldn't get it work without fucking up audio and seeking.
