justin twitch tv LIVE recording

 

so in december twitch and justin switched from rtmp to HLS...what is a tool that works to directly capture the streams?

Yes google livestreamer.exe it lets you watch twitch streams in vlc or the player of your choice and record them. Not so sure about justin though but does allow other sites.

Livestreamer appears to work on JTV. I used it on several channels with the -o switch to save the streams to files.

The saved files play OK in most of my players. But the audio stops and starts in VLC. I was able to fix the audio problem by copying the audio and video to new containers using FFmpeg.

When using FFmpeg to fix the audio, "ffmpeg -i INPUTFILENAME.EXT -c copy OUTPUTFILENAME.EXT" was enough if the JTV broadcaster had used an external broadcaster like FMLE, Xsplit, OBS, etc. If the broadcaster had used JTV's onsite broadcaster, I added the "-bsf:a aac_adtstoasc" switch and copied to an MP4 container to fix the audio, like this: "ffmpeg -i INPUTFILENAME.EXT -bsf:a aac_adtstoasc -c copy OUTPUTFILENAME.MP4"
