Ages ago I bought a movie off of a certain company’s video streaming service. We will call them GRC for short since I do not want to draw the attention of their bots. I downloaded the movie onto my PC via the GRC Windows 11 app, but rather than a simple .mkv like I hoped, I found a folder with 5 different files. Two of them are .mp4s whose names end with audio_5 and video_12 respectively. Two of the files are something called .MPD files. One of them is something called a .DFXP File.
Does anyone know how I turn this mess into something I can play off a Plex or Jellyfin server? The *_video_12.mp4 is 110% encrypted since nothing plays when I run it through VLC.
Yes, I was able to open it in Notepad++. Its XML like you said. Its big at over 2500 lines. Mostly repeating slight variations of the same thing. Here is a snippit.

is a tag for MPEG-DASH which is usually for streaming. How large are the .mp4 files?The video is about 7gb. The Audio is about 100mb. Its a 1080p movie.
Okay so they are just reusing the format for local files.
