When I first tried recording it grabbed from the position I was watching at the time. I'd guess the server remembers what it sent you last (possibly by IP) and continues the stream from there?

I'd recommend watching it in a browser to the end, then start recording as it loops around back to the start. That's what I did anyway.

Hi inanedirk,

Could you tell me some software which can download using that link. I actually dont have an idea what to do after getting m3u8 file.I used some stream downloading software but that file doesn't open or play.

cool, go here (http://docs.livestreamer.io/install.html) and get the Livestreamer Windows Installer. After installing, open a command prompt and enter this:

livestreamer "hlsvariant://http://yahooios-i.akamaihd.net/hls/live/202861/tristudios/livenation1p/master.m3u8" best -o sw.ts

This will write the stream in 720p to a file named sw.ts, which you can later watch with VLC or some other player.

Hi Everyone - Thanks for the help - I am using livestreamer - and it is appearing to capture (via a DOS window) the current stream I am receiving.

Couple of questions -

1. How do you stop the current stream capture?
   
2. I am going to try stopping the current stream - and then restart a new stream when the show 'loops' (seems I can't tell Yahoo live to play at the start) - is this the best way to do this?
   
3. Is there a way to avoid the 'loop' process, and download the show/files directly off the server?
   
4. I have a good internet connection and the show is being captured via live stream, and playback in web browser - however I noticed in the livestream capture box a time out occurred - (only one so far) and there was no interruption of the webbrowser play back stream is this normal?

If livestreamer works, that still pretty cool but wondered if this is the best way?

Thanks!!

Hi guys, greetings from south america, im writing here cause you probably have a better connection than i do, maybe i cant capture the 720p version , maybe one of you guys could share the shows with guys like me with crappy internet? I was talking about the sw show haha
