Thank you very much, this solution worked great for me. I was able to get all the videos my mom asked me for, because she wasnt able to download them. I wasn't aware of this whole m3u8 thing, glad I found this post :) 👍

If anyone could try to download this file here: https://video.cwl-live.ch/video/72/weff-2021---vortrag-andreas-thiel?channelName=Dani?t=0 I'd be very grateful. 🙏

VLC lets you do it. Just open up VLC Media Player and do this path:

Media -> Open Network Stream -> enter URL -> arrow next to Play -> Stream -> paste link again -> next -> add -> browse -> choose file location and a file name (.mp4) -> next -> Profile: Video - H.264 + MP3 (MP4) -> Next -> Stream
