i use adblock plus addon on firefox

1) click ABP icon and click Open blockable items


2) search for 'srt' (without ' ')

I tried to used youtbe-dl to rip video from history channel it work fine but it only download the lowest quality. so when play back on tv it blurry. But when i used it app on an android device playing the same video the it have better quality. So i assume it must have a hight quality ?

This is the video i talking about

you forgot two things

first hlsvariant:// before url
and as I have said in my previous post just a difference compared to the tutorial http://hdaks3.aetndigital.com >> https://aestreamingaks3-vh.akamaihd.net
so

livestreamer "hlsvariant://https://aestreamingaks3-vh.akamaihd.net/i/AETN-History_VMS/BRAND_THC_UNVS_49486_CRS_2398_060_20140107_V1_S3_,4,18,13,10,7,2,1,00.mp4.csmil/master.m3u8?hdnea=st=......~exp=.......~acl=/*~hmac=.......&g=......&hdcore=3.0.3" best -o test.ts
