I would appreciate some assistance in getting the video from the following link:

http://panam.cbc.ca/videos/live/video/pan-american-games-opening-ceremony-569674.html

Since the video is in smooth stream format, I have tried ismdownloader (the h264 version) and it just crashes. Other programs like smooth-dl.py and smoothget just generate errors when I try and use them with the manifest link.

Thank you biezom!

I noticed the above solution just downloads the video from the stream. Is there a way to get the audio as well?

Edit:
Figured it out. The audio stream is mislabeled as "138k" in Livestreamer. Grabbing that instead of "best" will download the audio separately. Unfortunately I cannot find a way to get livestreamer to download both streams concurrently.

im a noob

i still dont get it.


what is "(format=m3u8-aapl)" and how did you know to add it?

how do you know what streaming protocol to use?

what is .ts? i think its weird, it doesnt show the time, and i cant fast forward or move backwards. do i have to convert it to mp4 to make it act normal? can i do this somehow without loosing quality?

thanks

i tried following the instructions, but the audio and video is out of sync. sigh.. :(
the audio is exactly 1.0 second delayed (according to VLC a/v sync setting)
