use

addMediaFromUrl("https://api2.musical.ly/aweme/v1/playwm/?video_id=v07025790000bpagqcvhpliigi473f4g")

return file playwm.x-empty

How to fix this problem?

Hi,

The addMediaFromUrl function needs to use HTTP context options. Three quick ways for adding this feature:

1. by adding a new config option. We can override and revert the config at runtime (for example for cases when some urls require autentication). It`s not nice, but avoids the breaking change in option 2.

2. by adding a new $httpContext param in the addMediaFromUrl function (it will be a breaking change though)

public function addMediaFromUrl(string $url, array $httpContext = null, ...$allowedMimeTypes): FileAdder
    {
        if (! $stream = @fopen($url, 'r', false, $httpContext)) {
            throw UnreachableUrl::create($url);
        }
        ...

1. a combination of the first two options which allows overriding default config values by merging the config array with the $httpContext param array.

@tnduc Until this feature is available, you can simply override the InteractsWithMedia trait addMediaFromUrl function and use the approach in options 2 above.
