Hi guys,
is it possible to increase the "updating bootstrap info:...." attempts?

Seems to me that after the second one, HDS stop to record.

HDS Link Detector add-on for Firefox does not work on Palemoon 64 26.2.2, anyway to fix it? Even if I force install, it never shows in add-on bar

edit
Had to use Portable Firefox, worked a treat

Enable the curl extension in the php.ini file (by removing the preceding semi-colon which commented that line out)
I discovered that PHP was looking for php_curl.dll in the root of PHP, so I had to move it there from the 'ext' directory.

Each flv downloaded with AHDS Downloader while processed with ffmpeg to mpg gives the following errors (but in the end converts OK)

Anybody has any idea why?

Same error is mentioned ie here

And still applies to latest available FFmpeg git-9591ca7 64-bit Static (2016-05-25)

Hi,

I'm using Adobe HDS script to get live stream from ISP to VLC but sometimes I get something strange like loops or repeated stuff on the player...

One thing that I did was to limit parallel connections to 1 only, this reduced the problem a lot but is not mitigated yet.

As I understand the server dont like to much connections to it like dont respect an interval and for instance when the bootstrapp needs to update and something is donwloading I get a loop or freeze.

I can't provide the link I'm using here but I can do it on PM if someone can help.

Best Regards,
Nuno

Re: Adobe HDS Downloader

 

Yes, same for me, fixed it by adding retries to the script, something like this, search for "$status = $cc->get($bootstrapUrl)", around line 1111? in my abused script

Also added Loginfo text plus beeps (only php-sound easily available is the Bell character for an old console, with delay inbetween)

That is, inserted 2 retries with beeps and delays, straight inline-code without any counter counting the retries.
$cc->get() is the one doing the download.
$status as 200 hex means OK, alll others different kind of problems.

First and last lines unchanged, add, insert the rest.
php.exe complains at reading the script if obvious splelling,etc errors.

$bootstrapPos = 0;
LogInfo("\n STARTSTART Updating bootstrap info, Available fragments: " . $this->fragCount);
$status = $cc->get($bootstrapUrl);
LogInfo("GOT Status: " . $status );
if ($status != 200) {
LogInfo("\n 1111Failed to refresh bootstrap info, Status: " . $status . $bootstrapUrl);
echo chr(7); usleep(10000);
echo chr(7);

$status = $cc->get($bootstrapUrl);
if ($status != 200) {
LogInfo("\n 22222Failed to refresh bootstrap info, Status: " . $status . $bootstrapUrl, true);
$status = $cc->get($bootstrapUrl);
echo chr(7); usleep(10000);
echo chr(7); usleep(10000);
echo chr(7); usleep(10000);

}
}
$bootstrapInfo = $cc->response;
ReadBoxHeader($bootstrapInfo, $bootstrapPos, $boxType, $boxSize);

PS Watch out with the LogError code, changed most of them as they print the error and exits, no retries.
Change them to Loginfo

PPS This helped a lot on capturing live streams, especially when also running torrents or "Cptr doing too much"
Now runs for days without this error-exit, When problems getting fragments just a matter of 6-12s of stream missing

PPPS I have also added beep-info-alerts to missed fragments, TimeStamps getting fixed or negative.
Next will be "warning-beep" when script has launched close to the default 8 simultaneus, parallel "get-fragments", a sign the connection is too slow (Need to slow down other downloads or similar).
2-3 parallel downloads means evrthng is OK for my live streams, some live streams seem to buffer only 7-8 fragments, others more.
(for archived streams I use two parallels going, enough to get full speed with no pauses inbetween)

Re: Adobe HDS Downloader

 

From my Finland YLE (BBC) experience the script and detector (together) can do some encrypted streams.

That is, when it "works" there is a lot of --author, etc and cookie, etc arguments added (by HDS detector plugin frm web page) needed for the script to get the (one) encryption syst recently added.
(for garbage US action series so have not bothered checking in detail)

The (humongous) link also needs to be used within some 30-60seconds or "cant access Key"

Gunnar

PS That is, your command line didnt include any of the "humongous stuff"
