Are there any way to play StreamSB / Akamai url ?

[jons]

I have been searching a way to play url of StreamSB / Akamai cdn in media player like VLC, MPV
A sign to recognize those url is that the embedded player has a BLUE play button and the format of url is sth like https://delivery123.akamai-cdn-content.com/hls2/...
Streamlink could be used but then it plays as an continuous segment, can't really skip forward unless starting over with hls offset command.

Usually you just have to figure out the m3u8 playlist link with something like videodownloadhelper and use that, unless the site has extra protections. Hard to say without a working example.

A few working examples are any movie on javmovs.com (server 1) or javgg.net (streamsb)
Those http headers extracted from devtools only help when using Streamlink.

I can't test it at all so can't help with it. The video player always fails to load on both of those sites, even in a browser with no local ad or script block. I guess it's using ad sites as part of their process to load the video and my router adblock interferes with that.
