You could use a CORS proxy

[dishant0406]

Hi @SlideMovies If possible, can you please help me how to use or setup the proxy on the frontend or the backend or you can provide any documentation sort off.

I found a way around to handle this you can use this url and paste the video url directly after this as path parameter and it will work.

I'm making the url as https://corsanywhere.herokuapp.com/?path=https://tc-002.adesicdn.com/1ab5d45273a9183bebb58eb74d5722d8ea6384f350caf008f08cf018f1f0566d0cb82a2a799830d1af97cd3f4b6a9a81ef3aed2fb783292b1abcf1b8560a1d1aa308008b88420298522a9f761e5aa1024fbe74e5aa853cfc933cd1219327d1232e91847a185021b184c027f97ae732b3708ee6beb80ba5db6628ced43f1196fe/0789fd4f049c3ca2a49b860ea5d1f456/ep.1.1677591537.360.m3u8
Also tried zoho links.
It's not working.

[H4jw]

You need to give the url directly after slash path parameter is not need
Like -
https://corsanywhere.herokuapp.com/https://tc-002.adesicdn.com/1ab5d45273a9183bebb58eb74d5722d8ea6384f350caf008f08cf018f1f0566d0cb82a2a799830d1af97cd3f4b6a9a81ef3aed2fb783292b1abcf1b8560a1d1aa308008b88420298522a9f761e5aa1024fbe74e5aa853cfc933cd1219327d1232e91847a185021b184c027f97ae732b3708ee6beb80ba5db6628ced43f1196fe/0789fd4f049c3ca2a49b860ea5d1f456/ep.1.1677591537.360.m3u8

[shrkwt]

It says, Missing required request header. Must specify one of: origin,x-requested-with

[H4jw]

If you directly follow the link in browser it shows Missing required request header. Must specify one of: origin,x-requested-with

But if you fetch the link form browser it works,

[Anuragkumarsah]

Now again it is not working, I guess, I am again getting Cors error, even with corsanywhere.

[H4jw]

Now again it is not working, I guess, I am again getting Cors error, even with corsanywhere.

But it's working for me

[Anuragkumarsah]

But it's working for me

It is showing Cors error to me though.

[Anuragkumarsah]

Ok nvm, I think this was a problem from corsanywhere, I used "https://cors.zimjs.com/" and now it is working again.

hello bro, i have tried using different hls player to play an episode m3u8 link from https://api.consumet.org/anime/zoro/watch?episodeId=tokyo-revengers-15585$episode$64630$both, but none of them worked only jwplayer worked i think its using some unique cors policy or something, can you please help me out, ive tried to run my code on replit it didnt worked, but when i downloaded replit on my mobile and ran it again the video started to play

[shrkwt]

I guess, Replit code of yours is being prevented by Cors Policy to fetch the HLS(.m3u8) manifest and play it.

Whereas, the Replit app on mobile devices might has its own browsing environment that might not have Cors Policy.

Well, talking about JWPlayer;
Take a look at https://anihdplay.com/embedplus?id=MTY2NDQ4&token=rTS6SSjXPKJJoby90ft--Q&expires=1681475515

This link is the same as provided by API as referrer for a request at, https://api.consumet.org/anime/gogoanime/watch/dororo-dub-episode-1

Notice that the Referrer links have just the same JWPlayer in them.
So, it clarifies that the Anime HLS videos from GOGO are specifically meant to be played on JWPlayer as per the Cors Policy.

Here, a cors proxy should be used to use any other player to play on any browser (as each browser has Cors Proxy for security).

[shrkwt]

I think that the same goes for Zoro also.

[IrfanKhan66]

I think that the same goes for Zoro also.

i solved the cors error, but im still having one issue, when i fetch animes from zoro provider then in the subordub field i only get to see sub

[saurabhgangule]

guys if i created my own instance of jwplayer to avoid cors will it work?
If yes, then what will be configuration we have to pass, if no whats the better solution to handle it.
