Capture from TVLand - Multiple m3u8 files into one Capture??


Certain websites,
Code:
tvland.com
for example has their episodes on the website in pieces.

For example
Code:
http://www.tvland.com/full-episodes/2dny88/teachers-pilot-season-1-ep-101
The Pilot episode of the show "Teachers" each segment which is broken up with commercials/ads has its own master.m3u8 manifest file. So this episode has 5 parts, so it has 5 master.m3u8 files that separately can be captured with livestreamer.
While the video starts I find the first master.m3u8 url in AdBlock Plus by searching for master.m3u8. Then click on segment marker, the next master.m3u8 shows, etc, etc, till all 5 segments have initially started loading. I then copy that list of files and do the following

I captured each segment with the following:
Code:
livestreamer "hlsvariant://long url placed here-master.m3u8" best -o teachers111.mp4
livestreamer "hlsvariant://long url placed here-master.m3u8" best -o teachers112.mp4
livestreamer "hlsvariant://long url placed here-master.m3u8" best -o teachers113.mp4
livestreamer "hlsvariant://long url placed here-master.m3u8" best -o teachers114.mp4
livestreamer "hlsvariant://long url placed here-master.m3u8" best -o teachers115.mp4
Yes, I am able to capture each piece and concat them together with certains apps and I get the full episode. Don't get me wrong, I get ultimately what I wanted, but is there an easier way? Or a way to run all 5 m3u8 files at once in livestreamer or ffmpeg to make the capture all at once?
