I recently dealt with Instagram videos manually. If you open the network inspector while the video is streaming, you'll see two different mp4 files being fetched repeated. One is for the video and another is for the audio. Each request will have a different timestamp in the URL query parameters.

• Right click any of the mp4 requests and click "copy as curl".
• paste the curl command into text editor.
• remove the timestamp query param
• add > outputA.mp4 to the end of the command
• execute the edited curl command

Repeat with the other URL and save it to outputB.mp4 instead. Then view both files to determine which is the audio and which is the video. There was a very basic ffmpeg command which would merge the files. I can never recall correct ffmpeg commands though.

I was talking about the OP, if the show or film you are watching is in streaming, it will also be available for torrenting. TBH, I haven't searched for media too far from the mainstream.

I recommend finding a handful of decent private trackers, what's really happened is that public trackers went to shit.

Are you using the browser impersonation feature?

I strongly prefer extensions/bookmarklets for this reason. it's already in my memory, don't clone the whole universe (or make an additional HTTP request) just to download it).

I use yt-dlp a lot, and at least on windows I have my own custom script that I use that just runs the raw exe with parameters that I set. Anytime it breaks I download the new exe and it works fine again. I used it this week actually. Maybe this sort of option will work for you.
