    I do not know since when Elektroda deals with piracy but you cannot download videos from VOD / Netflix / Youtube etc.
    This is piracy, a little bit different, but still piracy.

    There is no such thing as "other piracy".

    You can download music and movies for your own use.

    There is no such thing as downloading "not your" content for personal use.
    According to this reasoning, if I steal a car, but if I drive it, is it ok?

    "Downloading files
    In the light of the act on copyright and related rights, downloading files from the Internet is considered to be fair personal use. Pursuant to the aforementioned Act, the author is allowed to use an already disseminated work for his own personal use free of charge without the consent of the author.

    There is a dispute in the legal community about downloading pirated files. Part of the community already considers it a violation and violation of permitted use, and others do not agree with this statement. So far, however, no sentence has been passed that would convict you for downloading a pirated file from the web. "

    Ok, I agree.
    However, breaking the rules of the portal may not be a criminal offense, but it is still not allowed.

    And if you were forbidden to breathe while watching a movie, you wouldn't be breathing? Why did you even take part in this topic if you had nothing RELATED TO THE THEME to say?

    To the author of the message:
    When viewing videos from these types of sites, turn on developer mode in your browser (F12), preferably in `timeline` (or` network`) mode, and see what the site is downloading while watching. It can be, for example
    a) a single link to a large file (e.g. mp4, webm) - then you download it either by pasting the address to the browser bar, or by using, for example, a plug-in built into the browser that allows you to download (e.g. Download Them All)

    b) many individual small .ts files - the whole movie shredded into several hundred or several thousand several seconds long parts, usually with numbered names. Then you download them with the plugin mentioned above, remove each header (first 376 bytes), merge them into a single .ts file and you have the movie

    An example is the video from the website "wiocha.pl":

    Hi @phanick, could you please give me a hint on how to use downthemall to download all of these little files? What does it mean that I remove the headline from everyone? I would be grateful for an explanation

    You run this plugin from Firefox:
    Tools >> Download Them All> Manager

    You just click the "+" button

    In the "Download" field you enter the path to the file you want to download

    For example, if fragments of files are on the website at the following addresses:
    https://sg.wgrane.pl/video_hls/2021/03/18/439465/360p_00001.ts?
    https://sg.wgrane.pl/video_hls/2021/03/18/439465/360p_00002.ts?
    ...
    https://sg.wgrane.pl/video_hls/2021/03/18/439465/360p_00010.ts?

    you type it

    https://sg.wgrane.pl/video_hls/2021/03/18/439465/360p_[00001:01000:1].ts?

    It may be a problem to find out what is the number of the last file, but then you can try to enter subsequent numbers in the browser address until you get the error "file not found"

    the above obviously start with ht ... p ;)

    They are not files ending in .ts or any other video extension but in the type column it shows me mp4. I do not know how to behave in this case: / I really want to download the old episode of Kossakowski from the tvnu player - ....... // player.pl/programy-online/kossakowski-szosty-zmysl-balkany-odcinki,2020 / episode-10, S01E10,27463 (for your needs, of course). Maybe I could ask for a hint, because maybe it's not this direction. I bought access specially ...

    Thank you in advance for your help

    Normally downloaded fragments should be playable, here none of the players on my computer can run this bit. It is possible that the files are additionally encrypted and the code is hidden in the player on the website or it is dynamically generated on some basis.

    By the way, it's interesting that I can download these fragments from the attached links, even though I do not have access to the player purchased. Maybe this address contains your session identifier, or the access verification is just performed as a decryption of these fragments in the player.

    Without analyzing the player's code / listening in on what is happening there, it cannot be moved.

    I have installed Tampermonkey. Very interesting tool!
    What is the source code for example for the player.co.uk website to download a movie? For example this video:
    https://player.pl/filmy-online/tesciowie-2,264641
    If it works, it will be great. I look forward to hearing from you.

    If you care so much, why don't you just turn on this video and run your desktop recording program in the background? If you have more films to download, so as not to occupy your main computer, buy yourself some cheap used laptop or mini computer like a Raspberry, fire up this film+recorder on it and after the duration of the film you have recorded everything.

Topic summary

✨ The discussion addresses the possibility and legality of downloading movies from the player.pl streaming platform, specifically the film "Endrju" about Andrzej Gołota. Participants highlight that downloading content from VOD services like player.pl is generally considered piracy and violates platform rules, even if used for personal purposes. Legally, there is debate about whether downloading pirated files constitutes infringement, but no definitive court rulings exist. Technically, player.pl uses segmented streaming with multiple small .ts files or DASH streaming with encrypted fragments, complicating direct downloads. Suggested methods include using browser developer tools (F12) to inspect network traffic and identify video file segments, then employing browser extensions like "Download Them All" to batch download these segments. However, downloaded fragments may be encrypted or require decryption keys embedded in the player, making offline playback difficult without further analysis or decryption. Some users mention Tampermonkey scripts as potential tools for automating downloads, but no ready-made solutions are provided. Overall, the process is technically complex, legally questionable, and hindered by encryption and streaming protocols.

FAQ

TL;DR: Streams can arrive as “several hundred or several thousand” tiny parts, and “turn on developer mode in your browser (F12).” This FAQ summarizes what the thread reveals, plus legal‑safe checks and typical roadblocks. [Elektroda, phanick, post #19335994]

Why it matters: This helps player.pl viewers understand the legal and technical limits of saving streams and what to try or avoid.

Quick Facts

Can I legally download a movie from player.pl?

The thread points to platform terms that forbid downloading outside provided features. Even if tools exist, using them can violate the service’s rules. Respect the site’s Terms of Service and use only features the platform offers. When in doubt, watch via the official player. This protects your account and complies with the portal’s policy screenshots referenced in the discussion. [Elektroda, Gregyyy, post #19317374]

Is screen recording with Bandicam a safe workaround?

Recording paid streams may still violate site rules, even if it’s not a criminal offense. The thread stresses that breaking platform rules remains disallowed. Use the official player and features instead of workarounds that can breach agreements. “Breaking the rules of the portal may not be a criminal offense, but it is still not allowed.” [Elektroda, Gregyyy, post #19317996]

Why does my browser’s Network tab show hundreds of small .ts files?

Many services deliver video as segmented streams. You may see many numbered .ts parts a few seconds long. The post explains two patterns: one direct media file or many small fragments. Developer tools help you inspect the requests, but this does not grant permission to copy content. Segmentation complicates saving and often pairs with encryption. [Elektroda, phanick, post #19335994]

Do I need to remove a “376‑byte header” from segments?

One post mentions removing the first 376 bytes from certain .ts parts when stitching files. Treat this as legacy troubleshooting, not a universal solution. Modern platforms often use encryption and license checks, so trimming headers won’t produce a playable file. Avoid attempts that bypass protections or terms. If content is protected, only the official player can decrypt it. [Elektroda, phanick, post #19335994]

How does DownThemAll’s number‑range pattern work, in general?

The thread shows a pattern like 360p_[00001:01000:1].ts to enumerate sequential assets. That tells the downloader to try files from 00001 up to 01000. Use such features only for content you own or are authorized to fetch. Segment counts vary, and guessing ranges does not create permission. The example illustrates the syntax, not an endorsement to copy streams. [Elektroda, phanick, post #19926764]

I only see .ism (DASH/Smooth) playlist links. Why won’t files play after download?

The fragments can be encrypted and require decryption inside the site’s player. One report notes downloaded bits did not play in local players. The poster adds, “It is possible that the files are additionally encrypted.” Without licenses, local playback fails. This is expected with protected streams. [Elektroda, phanick, post #19927088]

I could fetch fragments without logging in. Is that normal?

It can happen if the CDN serves encrypted segments while access control happens at decryption time. One user downloaded fragments yet none played, implying encryption and in‑player license checks. URLs may include transient session data as well. Without the site’s player and license, files remain unusable. [Elektroda, phanick, post #19927088]

Does player.pl still offer free AVOD content?

A participant shared that player.pl abandoned the AVOD model, ending free content. That change reduced free viewing options on the platform. To watch, you typically need a paid plan or promotions. Always verify current offers on the official site, since catalogs can change. [Elektroda, REMUR., post #19317218]

Can a Tampermonkey userscript download from player.pl?

Requests for scripts that auto‑download protected streams run against platform rules. The thread calls downloading from VOD/Netflix/YouTube “piracy,” even if methods exist. Do not use automation to bypass protections. Use official apps and features only. That respects the service and reduces account risk. [Elektroda, Gregyyy, post #19317172]

How do I inspect a stream without copying it? (How‑To)

Use developer tools for diagnostics, not extraction.
  1. Open Developer Tools (F12) and the Network tab.
  2. Start playback and observe requests (look for playlists and media segments).
  3. Stop there; confirm site terms before saving anything. “Turn on developer mode in your browser (F12)” is a helpful tip for inspection. [Elektroda, phanick, post #19335994]

How do people guess the last segment index?

One post shows trying ranges like 00100, 01000, or 10000 to estimate the final segment. This illustrates that segment counts vary widely, and guessing can be tedious and unreliable. It does not create permission to download. Treat such ranges as diagnostic, and respect protections. Statistic: users in the thread test up to 10,000. [Elektroda, phanick, post #19926764]

What’s the safest takeaway before trying any downloader or recorder?

Platform rules apply regardless of tools. The thread’s consensus is to avoid violating the portal’s terms. Encryption and licensing often prevent useful offline copies anyway. Watch through the official player and follow the service’s policies to stay compliant. That avoids account or legal issues tied to misuse. [Elektroda, Gregyyy, post #19317996]
