Hey, so there is a show called all star laff-a-lympics which is only available fully on tubi. It is also available on amazon, but im pretty sure they dont have all of the episodes. Furthermore, tubi version is remastered - the quality is top notch, way better than on any dvd or any rip Ive seen so far. And to add to it - tubi is prettt unstable when it comes to longevity of they library. They had remastered pup named scooby doo which they deleted over night. So, it is worth ripping - how to do it? I tried streamfab but it only allowed me to download 3 episodes (and I had to run microsoft defender a couple of times since I used cracked version). Also, the show is not available in my country so I had to use vpn.

    some tubi contents are not drm protected so you can easily download them with yt-dlp as already mentioned… If you are using firefox there is a drm (drm protected) icon next to https.

      Also, the show is not available in my country so I had to use vpn. Would that be a problem in youtube-dl?

        I have used youtube-dl with proton VPN and it works fine, I often have to use a US location to access a lot of stuff that Tubi doesn’t offer in my country. You should be able to do the same.

          I got this error, without vpn ERROR: Unable to download JSON metadata: HTTP Error 401: Unauthorized (caused by <HTTPError 401: ‘Unauthorized’>); please report this issue on https://yt-dl.org/bug . Make sure you are using the latest version; see https://yt-dl.org/update on how to update. Be sure to call youtube-dl with the --verbose flag and include its complete output.

            If the series you’re trying to pull is region locked then youtube-dl would need the VPN to get around the region locking, at least that has been my experience.
