# Hulu Downloader
The code in this repository allows you to download videos unencumbered with DRM from Hulu. The code in `widevine` is in general independent of the Hulu related code and can be used for Widevine license generation/decryption. The code in `hulu` is also standalone but only implements a handful of endpoints that are basically only useful for a command line tool of this nature.

Visit [https://hulu.com](https://hulu.com). Right click and then click Inspect. Then visit the Storage tab. Now, under the cookies pane on the left, select hulu.com. Then retrieve the value of `_hulu_session` from the list of cookies. A demonstration can be found [here](https://www.cookieyes.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/10/firefox1.mp4).
## Demonstration
Say we want to download an episode of M\*A\*S\*H.
$ go install github.com/chris124567/hulu # The rest of these commands assume $GOPATH/bin is in your PATH. If it is not, just cd to $GOPATH/bin and run "./hulu" instead of "hulu"

$ ffmpeg -i video_dec.mp4 -i audio_dec.mp4 -acodec copy -vcodec copy merged.mp4
And now merged.mp4 will be a DRM free mp4 file straight from Hulu! It is possible to automate nearly all of these steps by writing a simple script.

## TODO
- Subtitles
- Storing authentication cookie in a text file to avoid having to pass it for every command
## Credits
The bulk of the Widevine related code was ported from `pywidevine` which is a library floating around the Internet of unknown provenance.
