Anyone who knows how to start recording from the beginning of a concert?

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.

inanedirk 06-14-2015 11:42 AM

Re: How to download stream from Yahoo Screen?


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

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.

Re: How to download stream from Yahoo Screen?


 
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

Thanks - but that sorta defies one of the purposes of recording; to be able to watch it later :-)

I don't see how. You just have to hit the right time to start recording. Once you do that you can watch the resulting file any time you want.

Sorry, can't help there. I just started using this tool today and it worked fine for me (well, I did use the Debian one, not the Windows one, but as far as I can tell it's otherwise identical).

  1. CTRL+C
  2. I guess. I just started using it today, and I've never been on Yahoo Live Nation before, so I'm not really too familiar with either.
  3. Don't really know.
  4. I haven't had any errors while capturing. I guess you'll have to check the resulting file for errors.

Thanks for taking a stab - re: item 4 I will check - for reference here's what I'm seeing.



Hoping for 0 capture errors.

And as I was typing this, the playback stopped in my browser....hmmm

About to finish a complete loop - fyi, I didn't stop and start a new loop (yahoo seems repeat instantly) so hoping I can segment out the incomplete part of the first loop. If I have to pick part of the first loop and combine with the second - this could quickly become a pain.

inanedirk 06-14-2015 02:54 PM

Re: How to download stream from Yahoo Screen?


 
funkwad, I wish you luck. These errors are a little worrying. As I said I didn't have a single one of those while capturing.

cool 06-14-2015 03:04 PM

Re: How to download stream from Yahoo Screen?


 
How about using vlc to stream and save the file Or using ffmpeg? How to do..any idea?? Anyone here can guide on this?

funkwad 06-14-2015 03:05 PM

Re: How to download stream from Yahoo Screen?


 
Thanks - it appears to have captured...but haven't watched all the way through.

Any suggestions for attempting to trim the file? I saw some instruction on an earlier file, but not should it would apply to this show - also should I remux too?

Re: How to download stream from Yahoo Screen?


 
Everything went well for the first 35 minutes .. then came the errors and a final Read timeout.. recording stopped :-(
Very disappointed. Oh well, I got to enjoy pretty much most of it while waiting for the stream to restart.. guess I'm shutting down here.

Re: How to download stream from Yahoo Screen?


 
First - thanks to everyone for your answers to this problem! I ended up at this thread specifically in search of the SW concert and have learned a lot reading through it. I'm sure this info will come in useful in the future!

Secondly - did anyone have any success getting said SW concert recorded? I'm on my 5th attempt right now, but it keeps giving me 404 errors at random points after the first hour or so of the stream. Any ideas/thoughts?

If you did get it - anyone willing to share? Thanks!

JayStreamer 06-14-2015 04:52 PM

Re: How to download stream from Yahoo Screen?


 
will i get the file https://screen.yahoo.com/steven-wils...130000144.html if iuse ffmpeg with jd2.
Or do I have wait for the loop to begin also? Lets see. Show close to end.

JayStreamer 06-14-2015 05:27 PM

Re: How to download stream from Yahoo Screen?


 
So far so good. JD stopped the download after a few minutes. Too bad

Hi!
I'm Daniel, from Chile, also trying to donwload the Steven Wilson gig. Someone dowloaded the 1080p stream?
I couldn't find the link for the 1080p stream, only 720p.

Thanks

Re: How to download stream from Yahoo Screen?


 
so I think I have finding the links (.m3u8 etc) down thanks to this thread!

Would someone please explain what the best way to record/capture and view a live stream both at the same time? I would think if I was watching in my browser and using liverstreamer that I would be pulling the same data twice all at the same time (basically doubling bandwidth consumption). I have read a little bit about 'piping' but don't really understand how it works or how to attempt it.

I'm trying to figure out what the best method for the least chance of mistakes. I would prefer giving the recording priority over the VLC playback/display of a live stream.

I hope I'm explaining properly what I am attempting to ask. Please ask me for more details if I'm not explaining myself well enough. Thanks for everyone's help in the past. this forum is a great resource!

the sound was like very low bitrate to me, someone uploaded a .flac version of the audio from the streaming on mega and it sounds awesome! (of course it is lossy, but probably its the best you can get from the streaming)

As stated before, Yahoo Live Nation concerts are streamed in 1080p. Other resolutions are available as well: 720p etc.
Someone recorded the MPEG-TS stream in 1080p and uploaded it directly to YouTube.

Re: How to download stream from Yahoo Screen?


 
Thanks for your answer.
I've had sniffed all the possible links using URLSnooper2 for the 1080p links without success, only get the 720p links (Master m3u8), so still can't get the 1080p links for some future concerts.
