Hello, So basically I want to know how to code an extractor that allows you to get the m3u8 file from an embedded video. I am trying to build a scraper to get animes episodes from websites like gogoanime or 9anime. The only thing I was able to scrape so far is the embedded link for the episodes. Any idea on how I can do it ?

YT-DLP has a list of extractors for lots of different sites. You could see if there are similar sites and see how their extractors work.

Or Animescraper has extractors for them, but it was last updated 6 years ago.
