Re: Adobe HDS Downloader

When doing offline processing the AdobeHDS.php script only accepts fragments starting from the number 1.
What about having a couple of extra parameters like --startfragment# and --stopfragment#, -both optional when doing offline processing?

I tried to use the --duration parameter when doing offline processing, but that did not work. So is it only for online use???
Would it be possible to set a start time and stop time when doing offline processing? Or is that far beyond the range of such a script?

OK, at least there is some --start parameter I see...

Hey, I'm trying to download episode 4 from Keeping Canada Alive. It only downloads the fragments for the first 12m31s.

The description for the episode online does say it's 12m31s, however, the web player's timeline actually shows 39m26s. If I let the episode play through it is 39m26s.

The other remaining episodes all download complete.

Any ideas or suggestions?

Here's the manifest URL (the session has already expired) if it helps:

I figured it out... not all the fragments were available for the highest quality bitrate of that stream. So I used the next highest quality bitrate and it had all the fragments available.

'vlc' is not a internal or external command.

I believe it needs the whole path to vlc.exe, e.g. "C:\Program Files\VideoLAN\VLC\vlc.exe"

Hello,
I need help!
I started a thread named "http://ici.radio-canada.ca/tele/"
I received only 1 answer which redirected me here and now I'm stuck with no more replies to my 2nd question:

When I paste the link from HDS link Detector, I get this message: "could not open input file: AdobeHDS.php"

p.s. I read all sticky post from Video stream recording, and it did not help me. I tried numerous free and registered programs without any success.

I'm not a programmer and I don't understand PHP. I need a self explanatory method for Dummies. I read and tried following the WIKI
https://github.com/K-S-V/Scripts/wiki

I had some trouble with the whole process of installing PHP, but I finally made it work : when I type php -v I get the right msg.

All I want is to be able to download videos from this site:
http://ici.radio-canada.ca/tele/toc-...e?isAutoPlay=1

Video Downloader Ultimate was able to download all video fragments to a folder. I read the method to stitch them together, but I can't figure how to make it work.
Please, I already spent 5 days from 10 am to 10 pm trying to make this work. I'm going insane and I need help.

EDIT: I finally made it work and I got the video! This youtube video helped :
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ahq_Azppvj8
I would like to say what made it difficult is that the steps in wiki are incomplete. Here are steps you could add to it to help others like me:

After installing PHP, download AdobeHDS.php script here: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/K-...r/AdobeHDS.php
Save page as: AdobeHDS.php (remove .txt)
Place file in C:\PHP
Open Command Prompt and type: cd c:\php
To see if everything is working (you should see help menu appear) type: php adboeHDS.php --help
Go to your video in Firefox, copy link with HDS link detector
paste link in Command Prompt
It should start download!!

I'm so happy!!!
