Re: need help for downloading ultra music festival live on youtube pleasethis is the url that i found : http://www.youtube.com/api/manifest/...QmsyRUVU/sver/ i need the rest pof the url ? where i found it |
Re: need help for downloading ultra music festival live on youtube pleaseThere should be url starting "http://www.youtube.com/api/manifest/hls_variant/". That's the one you want to find.
I use Firefox17 with CacheViewer Continued addon to retrieve the file from the browser cache. Then you'll be able to see the complete url for the stream you want. The url you just posted is incomplete and for the lowest bandwidth. It should end with .m3u8 For now try this:- ffmpeg -i "http://www.youtube.com/api/manifest/hls_playlist/id/p8KFjGLe1CU.1/itag/95/source/yt_live_broadcast/ratebypass/yes/live/1/cmbypass/yes/newshard/yes/gir/yes/playlist_type/LIVE/maudio/1/pmbypass/yes/cp/U0hVSVFSVl9LTUNONV9JTFpDOjBzYTdhRzkyejc5/sver/3/upn/gM4RDZbXIl0/fexp/902000,919512,913605,931202,900821,900823,931203,9 31401,908529,930803,920201,929602,930101,930603,90 0824,910223/cpn/Bby-sOIwQbPcGy3d/ip/*.*.*.*/ipbits/8/expire/1364178263/sparams/ip,ipbits,expire,id,itag,source,ratebypass,live,cm bypass,newshard,gir,playlist_type,maudio,pmbypass, cp/signature/37A0AB53D3216643F24C8792DF2937E12DCD6685.24C0B67A0 722FCDF88CA5F9CC7A2725889800B87/key/dg_yt0/file/index.m3u8" -c copy seg.ts Put your ip address in place of the 4 stars. |

Re: need help for downloading ultra music festival live on youtube pleaseIt sounds like a bandwidth problem. I don't know how fast your connection is but the link I gave you was for the best quality, i.e. fastest connection.
Were you watching the clip on YouTube at the same time as downloading? If so, that could account for it. |

Re: need help for downloading ultra music festival live on youtube pleaseOK, if you're using the Web Console, put the word manifest in the filter. Then change the quality setting in the YouTube player to what ever you want.
The different quality streams are identified by different numbers:- BANDWIDTH=390000,RESOLUTION=426x240 is number 92 BANDWIDTH=1337000,RESOLUTION=640x360 is number 93 BANDWIDTH=1390000,RESOLUTION=854x480 is number 94 BANDWIDTH=3405200,RESOLUTION=1280x720 is number 95 Mouse over the lines in the console and look for the number, e.g:- "http://www.youtube.com/api/manifest/hls_playlist/id/p8KFjGLe1CU.1/itag/95/..." |

i really thank you for all your effort with me synopeas :) can i play the video in hd 720 for one minute & catch the url to download hight quality video & back again to 360 on live stream to watch the event live because the speed of my bandwidth isn't faster & i can't watch the event live in hd or i can catch the url video & edit the quality manually by writing 95 for example |
Re: need help for downloading ultra music festival live on youtube pleaseYou can't just change the number. There are other bits that are different as well.
Just change the quality in the player and wait for it to start playing. As soon as it does you can change it straight back to low quality. The link you want should be the one at the bottom of the list. It may be possible to stop the YouTube player altogether and just use vlc to watch the stream from the file as it's downloading. I think that should work. That way you would be using all your bandwidth to download and still be able to watch it more or less as it's happening. |
Re: need help for downloading ultra music festival live on youtube pleaseQuote:
i understand from your descriptions that i should play the stream in hd & catch the url & back to low quality again ? yes or not :) but how i can watch the stream on vlc ?! by the url.m3u8 catched or by the ts file that ffmpeg creating during download note that the file creating by ffmpeg is still 0 kb during downloading & when i stop the downloading or close cmd window it compress the millions of small files in cmd in video.ts & become a big video that i can watch & i have another note : the player doesn't show the time remaing of the video, it show 00:00 during watching video downloded |
Re: need help for downloading ultra music festival live on youtube pleaseYes to your first question.
I meant play the .ts file you are saving with vlc. I did say I wasn't sure and I can't find a live stream at the moment so can't check it. As for the 00:00 problem, I can remember that happening with live streams I've saved in the past. I just tried a few old .ts files I have and they played fine with vlc and showed the total time and time elapsed. Either the newer version of vlc handles .ts files better, or I fixed the files, I can't remember. |
