Help trying to rip a video from Viceland with livestreamer?

source:

Code:

https://www.viceland.com/en_us/video/werner-herzog/56c776e8d60a8460642ca41d

i've been tinkering with it for a few hours. the closest i've gotten is a 400mb+ junk file that shows bits and pieces of the first few seconds of the video, but doesnt seek or play completely on any player (VLC, Potplayer, etc)

this is the method i used to download the file. i found the link using IDM:

Code:

[cli][info] Available streams: live (worst, best)

File 720p.ts already exists! Overwrite it? [y/N] y

[download][720p.ts] Written 53.2 MB (4s @ 10.0 MB/s)

hoping someone can show me how to download a full, playable file if possible.

you might need a comcast account to view the video (PM me), or there should be other free videos on the site you can use to test your streaming method. thanks

use ffmpeg

Code:

ffmpeg -i "https://content-ause2.uplynk.com/c4882db96b864248a77cd483313671c5/g.m3u8?pbs=cba71b640dac4d6698ce82e70539c89a" -c copy "out.ts"

yea i've been googling and actually just found out about that technique, but it produces the same file.

ffmpeg gives me about 75+ "Non-monotonous DTS in output stream" errors, then produces the same 400mb garbled file. i guess the source just isn't rippable, but i'll keep playing with it. thanks
