help with the m3u8 link from nbc

 

When I am trying to download shows from nbc, take the following link as an example
https://www.nbc.com/today/video/toda...8-2017/3545906
I get an m3u8 link from the console
That is
https://nbcmpx-vh.akamaihd.net/i/vid...il/master.m3u8

But when I use this link to ffmpeg with a code like this :
ffmpeg -i "https://nbcmpx-vh.akamaihd.net/i/video/1000/467/170704_3545906_Today___Aug_08__2017_,25,40,18,12,7 ,4,2,00.mp4.csmil/master.m3u8" -c copy today_170808.mp4
Attachment 480

Is there anyway to get this video downloaded ?
Thanks in advance!

thanks for your kind help!
But please forgive me for my foolishness.

I have no idea about the part of -user-agent "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/31.0.1650.63 Safari/537.36" in the code. It seems to be connected with the browser ?

So I just copy your code directly and apply it to the ffmepg as the follows:
For the first time ,I used.<code>ffmpeg -user-agent "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/31.0.1650.63 Safari/537.36" -i "https://nbcmpx-vh.akamaihd.net/i/video/1000/467/170704_3545906_Today___Aug_08__2017_,25,40,18,12,7 ,4,2,00.mp4.csmil/master.m3u8?hdnea=st=1502268142~exp=1502280772~acl =/i/video/1000/467/170704_3545906_Today___Aug_08__2017_*~id=45ae9ff6-b9b2-49a7-b70f-af0727e1ae82~hmac=37091d2c6398c07e0a65bb6e60869ca4 c56487e18d315cb278935d6584b4033f" -c copy today_170808.mp4</code>

For the 2nd time , I used <code>ffmpeg -user-agent "Mozilla/5.0" -i "https://nbcmpx-vh.akamaihd.net/i/video/1000/467/170704_3545906_Today___Aug_08__2017_,25,40,18,12,7 ,4,2,00.mp4.csmil/master.m3u8?hdnea=st=1502268142~exp=1502280772~acl =/i/video/1000/467/170704_3545906_Today___Aug_08__2017_*~id=45ae9ff6-b9b2-49a7-b70f-af0727e1ae82~hmac=37091d2c6398c07e0a65bb6e60869ca4 c56487e18d315cb278935d6584b4033f" -c copy today_170808.mp4</code>

AND for the 3rd time, <code>ffmpeg -i "https://nbcmpx-vh.akamaihd.net/i/video/1000/467/170704_3545906_Today___Aug_08__2017_,25,40,18,12,7 ,4,2,00.mp4.csmil/master.m3u8?hdnea=st=1502268142~exp=1502280772~acl =/i/video/1000/467/170704_3545906_Today___Aug_08__2017_*~id=45ae9ff6-b9b2-49a7-b70f-af0727e1ae82~hmac=37091d2c6398c07e0a65bb6e60869ca4 c56487e18d315cb278935d6584b4033f" -c copy today_170808.mp4</code>

ALL the three attempts gave me the same result

Re: help with the m3u8 link from nbc

 

I do not understand,




This address you want to re-crawl, because there is a time period


Replace with new ones

Re: help with the m3u8 link from nbc

 

Thank you very much for you kindness!

I re-crawled, and then used the code to download this time ,

and got a different result than the previous attempts

Apparently , the code works!
But I have some other things to fix before I am able to get this video down.
How do I fix the problem mentioned which is in red in the prompt ?
Thank you !

THE file of .ts downloaded can be played ,but only with video , no audio!

What is the problem here ?
Thanks a million if I get further help !!

Re: help with the m3u8 link from nbc

 

there's noise

“-bsf:a aac_adtstoasc” Removed

Re: help with the m3u8 link from nbc

 

sorry to say but for me my code is working superfine.. i can play both Video+audio...

i dont know from your side.... and i you cant down a raw AAC stream wiothout using “-bsf:a aac_adtstoasc” filter.. did you tried to home yourself..??????.

Re: help with the m3u8 link from nbc

 

All this works in a simpler way for me. If you save file as .flv you can even watch video when it is downloading.
