Hi guys,

I was wondering how people who upload first webdl/webrip/etc movies/tvshows rip the video file.. Is there any "official guide" how to? Some rips have HDR and DV so how they get these metadata cause I assume that just screen recording won't get it.

If you get access to the media files that the streaming service sends you without recording it yourself it's WebDL. Could also be done by decrypting media you "downloaded" in their app to watch later.
