Thanks for reply. i want to stream the hls chunks again but this time without encryption and it would be faster that is why i want to keep the .ts chunks! is there away to decrypt the chunks without merging them ?

How it creates multiple ts files for me without encryption? Can you write the ffmpeg command for doing so?thanks

1st download encrypted with ffmpeg and than use this commnd to crete multiple files and m3u8 playlist by FFMPEG...

ffmpeg -re -i source.ts -codec copy -map 0 -f segment -segment_list foo.m3u8 -segment_list_flags +live -segment_time 10 out%03d.ts

Thanks . The segmenting process is very slow! does this command transcode too(changing quality of orginal .ts )?

[surya987]

no transcode... orignal quality

surya987 .Thanks for teaching me to create segments in ffmpeg.
so ffmpeg can't decrypt m3u8 by keeping the segments intact so we don't waste time re segmenting again ?

Furthermore, when i first merged all the .ts files to one big .ts(using the posted command below) the resulting .ts was not showing video length in vlc player! is there any solution so the big .ts show video length as well ?

ffmpeg -i "http://www.somesite.com/test.m3u8" -c copy decryptedOutput.ts

[surya987]

simple output to mp4...

 ffmpeg  -i "link.m3u8" -vcodec copy -acodec copy -absf aac_adtstoasc  output.mp4

In VLC, .ts files never show the length of the video. That's how it's always been, at least unless it's been changed in a recent update (doubtful). It's one of the various errors/disadvantages that come with using VLC, if it's a problem then you can always remux or better yet just switch to using MPC.

File m3u8: https://www.mediafire.com/?935z8o5q59o30w1
I think it was secured with token:
