I have been trying to download a Video from Cloudfront. I have the .m3u8 URL. But it gives me a 403 error. So, I’m unable to download it. Here’s the screenshot of that.

Also, I also have a Boot.xml file if could be of any help.Here’s the code of that.

add M3U8 file download filter then restart your browser. after that open page where download link is given.. this trick will work for sure…

3

in developer mode, go to network tab in chrome and filter m3u8, you’ll get the full link of m3u8.

4

To download that m3u8 file the server requires additional header requests. So in Chrome developer tool go to this m3u8 file link and right click the link and select “copy as curl” and then run that curl on your terminal.

Nothing worked.
