AnimDL - Download & Stream Your Favorite Anime

AnimDL is an incredibly powerful tool for downloading and streaming anime.

Core features

  • Abuses the developer's knowledge of internal streaming mechanisms in various different sites to hunt down high quality stream links.
  • Doesn't make a single unnecessary request; the official site may make 1k requests, this tool makes 3~5.
  • Doesn't use any heavy dependencies such as Selenium or Javascript Evaluators.
  • Effectively bypasses DRMs in several streaming sites.
  • Integrates AnimeFillerList so that the user can filter out any fillers from downloading or streaming.
  • Integrates powerful, fast and efficient internal HLS downloader.
  • Only tool in existence to bypass 9Anime's cloudflare protection.
  • Operates with full efficiency and speed by using Python's generator functions to their full capacity.
  • Supports streaming with mpv, an incredibly efficient, fast and light-weight dependency.

More sites?

Currently, there are no plans to add more sites as AnimDL supports top sites that stream anime. However, this does not mean that this is it for the sites. You can raise as many issues as possible for requesting a new site.

Note: Your request may be denied in case of Cloudflare protections and powerful anti-bot scripts in the site.

Streaming

Streaming needs an additional dependency known as mpv, you can download it from here.

If you're having issues with the installation of mpv, you can make an issue to recieve full help on its installation and usage.

Disclaimer

Downloading or streaming copyrighted materials might be illegal in your country.

    A Standalone executable with automated installation script and enhancement

    Hello, Got an eye on your project and it's great,there is one problem you need to have python installed and lets be real not every one who watches anime, is a programmer or there can be some other problem.i had a little time to spare from my exams, so i created a standalone executable for your script using Nuitka(a python compiler).it converts all the constructs to c,c++ so there is a significant boost over cpython.also i created a batch script(animedl_install.bat) for installation that automatically copies all the files to C:\Program Data and adds the executable to PATH.i could have created a installer but that would have needed some modification to your animedl.py file and i was lazy for that(but if you need i can create one).so after installation you just need to open cmd and type animedl to get started.i have uploaded the zip over my mega account.one more thing ,i recommend you also having a interactive user interface,for example if user uses it from cmd with arguments then run it like its running now but if user runs the executable or python script without giving any argument(i.e grab,download) then run it in a interactive mode with a menu like in this repo or better.its a sorry state script (using curses programming in python) i wrote a while back.supports selecting options from keyboard keys(UP/DOWN) and also mouse support.i can help you with the interactive menu,that is if i get any time from my exams😅.also one more thing ,add versioning to your git repo

    i hope that you go with some of my recommendations regards,

  • [Feature request] parser-friendly stdout

    [Feature request] parser-friendly stdout

    Hey,

    First - amazing work. I'm very impressed by the efficiency of animdl. I have a request, which I would have PR'd myself if only I knew Python, but I believe it's reasonable enough to still ask.

    I'm going to make a wrapper around animdl for my own usage, and I'd love to avoid having to parse the CLI output. I was thinking that, given a flag, something like --json, all the output could be just JSON.

    Ideally, commands like animdl test, animdl grab "one piece" or animdl grab https://9anime.to/watch/one-piece.ov8 would only output JSON, without color or formatting (though that last command is pretty close).

    To be clear, I can totally parse everything even now, I just think it'd be very nice to have a reliable way to do so.

    too bleeding edge and no older version available

    I'm on debian, and you are using libraries that are too new for my system.

    You have simply a master branch, no tags, no releases.... There's no easy way to use an older version. You should at least have some tags to segment the history so that we can download older versions. You could also consider not using libraries that are too new.

  • How to prefer no/soft subtitles?

    How to prefer no/soft subtitles?

    How do I tell animdl to prefer no/soft subtitles?

    Background: I'd like to use animdl for my Japanese immersion learning and stream anime without any subtitles so I can inject my own Japanese subtitle files into MPV. I was planning to use zoro since I believe it was the only source available that provides videos that don't have the subtitles baked into them.

    I scanned over the code and it seems the intelliq.py file is responsible for parsing the quality string but I couldn't figure out how to deal with subtitles.

    Could you tell me if/how this can be done? Thanks in advance.
