How to download stream from Yahoo Screen?

[roadrunner]

Hello everybody,

I've been trying to download a pre-recorded stream from the Yahoo Screen site but have had no luck so far. I've read through the forum and was not able to find any instructions for this particular site.

Every day Yahoo Screen broadcasts a live concert stream and then they offer on demand viewing for 24 hours. I've been trying to download an on-demand stream but the closest I've been able to get is to download 9 second .ts files.

I have tried the following applications: GetFLV, StreamTrasnport, Replay Media Catcher 4, Atresdownloader, AdobeHDS.php script, ffmpeg.exe Firefox CacheViewer, DownloadHelper and DownloadThemAll!

The closest I came was by figuring out the URL of the .ts streams and then using DownloadThemAll! to automatically download each individual file. Unfortunately, there are unpredictable gaps in sequencing of the files so I was unable to get the entire performance.

Here is the URL to the site:
https://screen.yahoo.com/live/

I would appreciate any advice on how to proceed.

Thanks so much for reading.

you can use URLSnooper2 or Bitanalyzer for that

Thanks hasomaso.

I have installed URLSnooper but I'm not sure what I should be filtering on. I have tried filtering on "f4m" and "m3u8" but nothing appears.

Am I on the right track - what should I be looking for?

A method to find the hls (m3u8) playlist url for yahoo live and live replay events:

Find the numbered url to the event. This can be found on the yahoo screen main page.

For your example it is;

https://screen.yahoo.com/moon-taxi-live-concert-130000080.html

Then view the source of that page, using Ctrl-U or right-click, view source. Search for "m3u8".
