Hello! I'd like to write a script to download videos from streamingcommunity.estate from a given video URL, and to do this I need the m3u8 file url. Currently I manually go to the network tab to search for it, but I'd like the script to do this automatically. Do you know of a way to achieve this? Bash or Python if possible, otherwise any other method will do fine. Thanks in advance!

I sure hope they commit the work back into the main repo...

I doubt they would be able to. I was interested and looked around a bit. There's even a whole chapter in their documentation dedicated to adding extractors. First paragraph of that chapter is basically ''do not add piracy websites''
