YesPornPlease is a video hosting site that commonly uses a KVS-style player configuration with MP4 and HLS variants. The site exposes direct media URLs in player configuration blocks or inline JavaScript, which can be extracted and downloaded with standard tooling.
- YesPornPlease watch pages and embed endpoints
- Player configuration payloads (flashvars, JSON, or inline scripts)
- HLS manifests and MP4 direct file URLs
- Common CDN hostnames and URL query patterns
- Inspect player initialization scripts for video_url, hls, and file keys
- Capture network requests while playback starts
- Validate URLs with yt-dlp and ffprobe
- Document stream variants by quality and codec
- Direct MP4 files hosted on CDN
- HLS streams exposed via m3u8 playlists
- Thumbnail and preview assets hosted on static subdomains
- Primary site domain: yespornplease.com
- CDN patterns: cdn.yespornplease.com, s1.yespornplease.com, s2.yespornplease.com
- KVS get_file endpoint as the gateway to media assets
- User loads watch page
- Player script assembles flashvars / JSON config
- video_url or hls_url is resolved via get_file
- Client requests MP4 or m3u8 from CDN
- Most public videos are accessible without auth
- Some videos require session cookies or age gate confirmation
- Signed URLs may expire; capture fresh URLs near download time

|---|---|---|
| MP4 (progressive) | .mp4 | Direct file URLs; easiest to download |
| HLS (adaptive) | .m3u8 | Playlist-based; download via yt-dlp or ffmpeg |
| fMP4 segments | .m4s | Segmented assets referenced by HLS playlists |
| Quality | Typical Resolution | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Low | 360p - 480p | Fast preview streams or mobile variants |
| Medium | 720p | Common default for web playback |
| High | 1080p+ | Available when source uploads are higher quality |
- get_file URLs often include a hash segment and short-lived tokens
- Quality is commonly encoded in the filename or path
- Referer and Origin headers can affect access
ffprobe -hide_banner -show_streams "video.mp4"
ffprobe -hide_banner -show_format "video.mp4"
ffprobe -hide_banner -i "playlist.m3u8"yt-dlp can parse direct MP4 URLs or HLS manifests. Use cookies when content is gated and prefer format selection to control quality.
yt-dlp [OPTIONS] [--] URL [URL...]
yt-dlp -F "https://example.com/watch/123"- Use --cookies-from-browser to re-use a logged-in session if required
- Pass referer headers with --add-header when the CDN enforces origin checks
yt-dlp -f bestvideo+bestaudio/best "URL"
yt-dlp -o "%(title)s.%(ext)s" "URL"
yt-dlp --download-archive archive.txt "URL"yt-dlp "https://yespornplease.com/video/<slug>/"
yt-dlp -F "https://yespornplease.com/video/<slug>/"
yt-dlp -f best "https://yespornplease.com/video/<slug>/"yt-dlp -a urls.txt --download-archive archive.txt
yt-dlp --no-overwrites --continue "URL"- Use --retries and --fragment-retries for flaky HLS
- If 403/401 occurs, refresh cookies or add referer headers
- Use --downloader aria2c for large MP4 files
FFmpeg is useful for remuxing HLS playlists into MP4 and validating codecs without re-encoding.
ffprobe -hide_banner -i "playlist.m3u8"
ffmpeg -i "playlist.m3u8" -c copy output.mp4ffmpeg -i "playlist.m3u8" -c copy output.mp4
ffmpeg -i input.mp4 -c copy -movflags +faststart output.mp4
ffprobe -hide_banner -show_streams output.mp4streamlink "https://yespornplease.com/video/<slug>/" best -o output.mp4
streamlink --loglevel debug "URL" bestaria2c -o video.mp4 "https://cdn.yespornplease.com/videos/<id>/<file>.mp4"
aria2c -i urls.txt -j 4gallery-dl "https://yespornplease.com/video/<slug>/"
gallery-dl -g "URL"- Filter Network tab for m3u8, mp4, or get_file requests
- Check player initialization scripts for video_url or hls_url
- Copy request URL as cURL to preserve headers
- None documented; rely on page and player data extraction
# No public API calls identified; extract URLs from HTML/player data
- Many KVS deployments do not expose a documented API
- If a tokenized endpoint exists, capture it from the player payload
- Parse inline player config for direct MP4 URLs
- Fallback to HLS playlist URLs (m3u8)
- If both are absent, scan Network logs for get_file requests
- Prefer direct MP4 when available for fastest downloads
- Cache resolved URLs briefly; refresh if tokenized
- Surface download buttons near player and in grids where possible
- Use %(title)s.%(ext)s output templates to preserve context
- Store archives to prevent duplicate downloads
- HLS playlists may rotate segments; retry on 404
- Age-gate or consent modals can block player config
- Some videos are externally embedded and require provider-specific handling
YesPornPlease uses a KVS-style delivery model with MP4 and HLS variants. A robust downloader should first parse player config for direct media URLs, then fall back to HLS manifests and network inspection. yt-dlp remains the primary extraction tool, with ffmpeg and streamlink as reliable backups.
| Tool | Best Use Case | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| yt-dlp | Primary downloader for MP4/HLS | Supports cookies, format selection, retries |
| ffmpeg | Remuxing and validation | Useful for HLS to MP4 conversion |
| streamlink | Live/HLS fallback | Streams to file or pipes into ffmpeg |
| aria2c | Multi-connection HTTP/HLS downloads | Good for large files and retries |
| gallery-dl | Image-first or gallery-heavy sites | Best for gallery or attachment extraction |
