HBO Go Video Playback Fails

[vicosphi]

Hello!

Thanks to the help in this forum, I was able to download a couple episodes from HBO Go using livestreamer hls://http:// option.

I see the .TS files just fine and the sizes also seem correct as redownloading them also shows same size when the download shows complete.

However, I am unable to play the .ts files using Mplayer, SMplayer, VLC etc. I can't even convert it to MP4 as the converter programs say its an invalid file. Mediainfo program shows no information about the .ts files either.

Are these encrypted .TS files? Is anyone able to download anything from HBOgo using livestreamer and play it ?

Thanks!!
