Description

I am trying to download a video from filemoon.sx using the URL https://filemoon.sx/d/jv6whayugrjc/vif.mp4, but I am unable to retrieve the .m3u8 stream link, which is essential for downloading the video. Despite using both the pip version and the GitHub version of youtube-dl, I encounter the same issue.
When I run the command:
youtube-dl --verbose -f best -o output.mp4 https://filemoon.sx/d/jv6whayugrjc/vif.mp4
I receive an error stating: "No video formats found." This error persists even though the URL is accessible and playable in a browser. I would appreciate your assistance in resolving this issue with the extractor for filemoon.sx, as obtaining the .m3u8 link is critical for my download needs.

Review #30839 as asked to find out how to install a version of the program that should solve your problem.

Please post a verbose log if that version fails, or close the issue.

If you're using yt-dlp, ask about it there, but the site you're using may not be supported.

The nightly build of this program, as linked from #30839, should support the site: it did when the extractor was last updated.

@Ionic commented on GitHub (Oct 21, 2024):

It's broken indeed, but not severely.

They started using a "landing page" and embedding an iframe into that, which loads the actual page/player.

A quick and dirty fix is to change the extractor (_real_extract) to detect and fetch the content of the iframe instead:

        matched = self._search_regex(r'<iframe\b[^>]+\bsrc=(["\'])(?P<url>(?:https?:)?//(.*?/%s))\1' % video_id, webpage, 'embedded url', group=2, default=None, fatal=False)
        if matched:
            webpage = self._download_webpage(matched, video_id, 'Downloading embedded video page', headers={ 'Referer': url })

As said, quick and dirty, though. No idea what that might do to other XFileShare-supported sites, and I'm not in the mood to create a full PR for this.

If someone would care to test the PR in a location other than UK and post some other sort of result here, that would be reassuring (or helpful, if it failed).

Ironically, though, there is another issue for this video (which I haven't seen with others) because they started to detect public VPNs (and which also produces broken HTML... sigh):

The geo block detection in 0ddcc15fd175a2a5962bc3f51dcaf89fbc18a9ab could be extended to match on the geolimit div class (I wouldn't trust parsing the message with a regexp, that might change more easily). Clicking the button does nothing, btw, so it's not a magic "LETMEIN" button.

Are you able to test the problem video from a non-VPN-blocked IP address, maybe with a mobile hotspot? Just -vF is fine, no need to fetch the actual media. Or @hiruy56?

@Ionic commented on GitHub (Oct 22, 2024):

I've tested the problematic video both with a VPN and with bypassing a VPN. :)

The youtube-dl output I posted for https://filemoon.sx/d/fbsxidybremo was without a VPN, which obviously worked fine, but with a VPN, the site only returned the error page described (with irrelevant data removed) in my later comment. It's been the same video, just once without and once with going through a VPN.

With that patch, the format selection still comes out fine without going through a VPN; with going through a VPN, the exception probably looks kinda confusing to users:

Agreed, but also your wrapper script seems to be eliding and/or mixing up some of the error text (STDERR vs STDOUT?), eg
RROR: A FileMoon does not store nor track any data about you. ...

This error function should be better:

        def raise_ExtractorError(html, expected=True):
            raise ExtractorError(clean_html(self._search_regex(
                r'(?si)<h1(?:\s[^>]*)?>(.*?)</h1>', html, 'error heading', default=html)),
                expected=expected)

I know, it looks as such, but really isn't the case. The wrapper is simple:

#!/bin/bash

typeset cur_arg=''
typeset -a new_args
new_args=()
for cur_arg in "${@}"; do
  if [ '--legacy-server-connect' != "${cur_arg}" ]; then
    new_args+=( "${cur_arg}" )
  fi
done
exec env 'PYTHONPATH=/home/ionic/src/youtube-dl-git' 'python3.10' -m 'youtube_dl' "${new_args[@]}"

and I'm getting the same output if run directly:

@Ionic commented on GitHub (Oct 22, 2024): > > ... probably looks kinda confusing to users > > Agreed, but also your wrapper script seems to be eliding and/or mixing up some of the error text (`STDERR` vs `STDOUT`?), eg ` RROR: A FileMoon does not store nor track any data about you. ...` I know, it looks as such, but really isn't the case. The wrapper is simple: ```bash #!/bin/bash typeset cur_arg='' typeset -a new_args new_args=() for cur_arg in "${@}"; do if [ '--legacy-server-connect' != "${cur_arg}" ]; then new_args+=( "${cur_arg}" ) fi done exec env 'PYTHONPATH=/home/ionic/src/youtube-dl-git' 'python3.10' -m 'youtube_dl' "${new_args[@]}" ``` and I'm getting the same output if run directly: ``` ionic@apgunner~/src/youtube-dl-git(git)-[master] % python3.10 -m youtube_dl 'https://filemoon.sx/d/fbsxidybremo' -v --no-warnings --flat-playlist --sub-format 'ass/srt/best' --format 'best' --user-agen t 'Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:96.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/96.0' --verbose --all-subs --no-playlist [debug] System config: [] [debug] User config: [] [debug] Custom config: [] [debug] Command-line args: ['https://filemoon.sx/d/fbsxidybremo', '-v', '--no-warnings', '--flat-playlist', '--sub-format', 'ass/srt/best', '--format', 'best', '--user-agent', 'Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x 86_64; rv:96.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/96.0', '--verbose', '--all-subs', '--no-playlist'] [debug] Encodings: locale UTF-8, fs utf-8, out utf-8, pref UTF-8 [debug] youtube-dl version 2021.12.17 [debug] Git HEAD: aae565d56 [debug] Python 3.10.2 (CPython x86_64 64bit) - Linux-6.9.1-x86_64-Intel-R-_Core-TM-_i7-7700K_CPU_@_4.20GHz-with-glibc2.34 - OpenSSL 1.1.1m 14 Dec 2021 - glibc 2.34 [debug] exe versions: ffmpeg 6.1.2, ffprobe 6.1.2, rtmpdump 2.4 [debug] Proxy map: {} [XFileShare] fbsxidybremo: Downloading webpage RROR: A FileMoon does not store nor track any data about you.

Yeah, with the modified `raise_ExtractorError` function, I'm seeing this, which is much clearer: ``` [debug] System config: [] [debug] User config: [] [debug] Custom config: [] [debug] Command-line args: ['https://filemoon.sx/d/fbsxidybremo', '-v', '--no-warnings', '--flat-playlist', '--sub-format', 'ass/srt/best', '--format', 'best', '--user-agent', 'Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:96.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/96.0', '--verbose', '--all-subs', '--no-playlist', '-F'] [debug] Encodings: locale UTF-8, fs utf-8, out utf-8, pref UTF-8 [debug] youtube-dl version 2021.12.17 [debug] Git HEAD: aae565d56 [debug] Python 3.10.2 (CPython x86_64 64bit) - Linux-6.9.1-x86_64-Intel-R-_Core-TM-_i7-7700K_CPU_@_4.20GHz-with-glibc2.34 - OpenSSL 1.1.1m 14 Dec 2021 - glibc 2.34 [debug] exe versions: ffmpeg 6.1.2, ffprobe 6.1.2, rtmpdump 2.4 [debug] Proxy map: {} [XFileShare] fbsxidybremo: Downloading webpage ERROR: Access Denied VPN Detected.
