Re: How to dump youtube live TV stream to file using commandline?


I think maybe I didn't explain correctly originally; or, there is a miscommunication. I have always been able to get a full URL to download a youtube video using packet sniffer apps. The problem is it doesnt work for more than a few times before I get a HTTP error 403 Forbidden error message. It seems like the URL you provided (below) has already stopped working.

I am actually looking for a reliable/consistent way to download the stream (starting at the current live TV position).

The closest I can get is when using the youtube-dl python script that I've already been using; except it seems like its meant for non-live TV videos (starts download from when the live TV stream first started to broadcast instead of "current" broadcast live TV position in the web browser.
