My order for some courtroom trial audio was just fulfilled on FTR (fortherecord.com). They don't provide a way to download it. It appears they want you to log in and use their player every time you want to hear it.

I have downloaded audio delivered electronically like this in the past using some Chrome extensions (Audio Downloader Prime in particular). However, it is not detecting the stream at all. I just installed a few other extensions both on Firefox and Chrome and tried them, but nothing is working. "Bulk Media Downloader" at least sees the numerous tiny files. Stacher says it doesn't support the domain.

When I inspect it and look at the network tab, I see that they are coming over as 1 second MPEG-DASH files (extension .m4s).

The only other way I know to do it is to just play the audio and record it through OBS / VoiceMeeter as it's being played. But this is a two week trial with 8 hours of audio a day, so I'm looking at having to run the computer for 100+ hours to do so. Possible, but very unattractive option.

Any ideas?
