This method isn't working for me.

I've tried it a few days ago but it didn't work. Decided to retry today however I always knew I had done it right the first time.

Code:

livestreamer --http-header "Cookie=CloudFront-Policy=eyJTdGF0ZW1lbnQiOlt7IlJlc291cmNlIjoiaHR0cDovL2xpdmUudHZwbGF5ZXIuY29tLyoiLCJDb25kaXRpb24iOnsiRGF0ZUxlc3NUaGFuIjp7IkFXUzpFcG9jaFRpbWUiOjE0NTc0MDI0NDl9fX1dfQ__; CloudFront-Signature=avN9nlDmgotSCj~eNNKVskN~fy38B~63fFEvr9eBX5Hsy8qNIPHxCvIKqCSTSUAKWqEBXIOgqP5T0Nmew~VQrF5s-Ske7uRiSzaRo5DAPZk1ZruhruSEM1tYiWc6cmlVIeS1noXSWXi0RvH9Hajxt8mZHZEOJfzDF5MtUyOj6w79-lxVe7NUB9AkOsXRAifbhAsysjcMjJFyRLt~69r25q0ICeaEee25ZKkRSblMAdJ~YQ6wDCA0EcM1tHGXW~gVP~ZIn2rPOHGvyVtwKRw~vCzAbsPdkzDVWGo6zSyJGDEjhXP4LMDcEtA3m1xiS~AeeFv0tqu~bsCR~oe02zPyjQ__; CloudFront-Key-Pair-Id=APKAJGWDVCU5SXAPJELQ" "hlsvariant://http://live.tvplayer.com/cnn/live.m3u8" best -o cnn.ts

My network sniffer will give me 6 different .m3u8 playlists:

http://live.tvplayer.com/cnn/live.m3u8
http://live.tvplayer.com/cnn/1/prog_index.m3u8
http://live.tvplayer.com/cnn/2/prog_index.m3u8
http://live.tvplayer.com/cnn/3/prog_index.m3u8
http://live.tvplayer.com/cnn/4/prog_index.m3u8
http://live.tvplayer.com/cnn/5/prog_index.m3u8

I've tried them all although I haven't had success with any. The error I get is as follows:

[cli][info] Found matching plugin stream for URL hlsvariant://http://live.tvplayer.com/cnn/2/prog_index.m3u8
error: Unable to open URL: http://live.tvplayer.com/cnn/2/prog_index.m3u8 (403 Client Error: Forbidden)

I would very much appreciate any thoughts so as to help.

Thank you

The cookies are specific to the session/IP address. You have the detect the cookies yourself using a cookie manager extension (several are available for chrome and Firefox). The cookies that were used above in the example were specific to that particular user.

I used Awesome Cookie Manager for Chrome and searched for the three cookies mentioned above and included that in the HTTP header as biezom pointed out and the CNN stream on their site is working through livestreamer.

As an aside, I will have to criticize the quality of that stream though, I'm not sure why they went with a 576p 2.5 mbit stream, ends up looking really blurry despite using a fair bit of bandwidth. Not sure if it's their source or what it is.

I didn't make it clear enough but the cookies I used on livestreamer ARE NOT the same cookies of the example contained in this thread. I grabbed them myself using my browser's capabilities and that is why I was so hopeful it'd work because I did the exact same thing biezom did in his example, except that I substituted his cookie parameters by the parameters I managed to grab from Chrome myself.

Thanks anyway
