JonDough,
I tried your suggestion to use livestreamer. I am using livestreamer
(livestreamer-v1.12.2-win32-setup.exe) and I got a fresh m3u8 by playing the video in Chrome.
Code:
http://hlslive-akc.med2.med.nhl.com/hdnts=exp=1511085004~acl=/*~id=nhlGatewayId:6743919~data=54575003~hmac=2c808b5b1469741463f3a262b9cb4cc9cc3d20699a88638d848fce68d97cf692/8924e48c510c791cdc783d4ad294ec06/ls04/nhl/2017/11/18/NHL_GAME_VIDEO_NYRCBJ_M2_HOME_20171118_1510679671624/master_wired60.m3u8
I put that into livestreamer:
Code:
livestreamer "hlsvariant://http://hlslive-akc.med2.med.nhl.com/hdnts=exp=1511085004~acl=/*~id=nhlGatewayId:6743919~data=54575003~hmac=2c808b5b1469741463f3a262b9cb4cc9cc3d20699a88638d848fce68d97cf692/8924e48c510c791cdc783d4ad294ec06/ls04/nhl/2017/11/18/NHL_GAME_VIDEO_NYRCBJ_M2_HOME_20171118_1510679671624/master_wired60.m3u8" 360p
But I got download failure. Please look at my above code and following output and see if you can find what is wrong. Also, I don't want vlc to come up (as it did in your case). I just want to download the video. Please give me the code to put into livestreamer to do that.
Also to lessor, troller12, thank you for helping me edit the m3u8 file to download with ffmpeg. Your descriptions were too complicated for me to follow, but I was able to adapt your advice and come up with an easy solution for editing that I will describe in another post in this thread.
