For this to work, you need to jailbreak your PS4 and copy the entitlement.db e.g. via FTP into the script directory.

The entitlement db can be found on the PS4 here:

    /system_data/priv/license/entitlement.db

The script is not perfect and not all errors are caught but it does its job :-)

The downloaded pkgs can only be run on the same PS4 as the entitlement.db was taken from.

The script can be downloaded as a zip file containing the Windows EXE file of the compiled script.

Just extract the exe file into a directory on your hard drive and place the entitlement.db file in the same directory.

Execute the ExtractPkgsFromEntitlementDB.exe file and wait for the process to be finished.

• Install Python 3.8+ (with virtualenv, virtualenvwrapper-win, pip)
• clone this repo
• Inside cloned repo directrory, Setup virtual environment with:

python -m venv venv

• Activate venv with:

venv\Scripts\activate

• Install dependencies:

pip install -r requirements.txt

• Copy your entitlement.db file to repo directory next to main.py

• run main.py to start the program:

python main.py

• all found package files will be written to the dl_links.csv file in the same directory

Example Format of CSV File:

the links without any description or ID will be written to dl_links_only.txt file in the same directory for importing into jdownloader

You can then use any program to directly download the package files (e.g. jdownloader2)

and process them further (merge updates, ...)
