Need help downloading m3u8 (403 error)

[KumaDon]

Hi,

I've been trying to download a video from https://amebafresh.tv/official/2611

I used adblock plus and found that the link to the Video file is https://movie.amebafresh.tv/movie/fresh2611/archive.m3u8 (not 100% sure)

I tried:

1) ffmpeg64 -i "https://movie.amebafresh.tv/movie/fresh2611/archive.m3u8" -c copy output.ts

2) livestreamer "hls://movie.amebafresh.tv/movie/fresh2611/archive.m3u8" best -o output.ts

However i keep getting http error 403 forbidden. Anyone can teach me how to overcome this problem and download the video?

Thanks for the reply.

I tried to use both the 32bit and 64bit ffmpeg (I am using 64bit windows 7) with the new code, but got a different error this time.

ffmpeg32 -i "https://movie.amebafresh.tv/movie/fresh2611/006/576/playlist.m3u8" -c copy output.ts

P:\>ffmpeg32 -i "https://movie.amebafresh.tv/movie/fresh2611/006/576/playlist.m3
u8" -c copy output.ts

I am not sure what "failed to open segment of playlist" means. Can anyone offer any suggestions on how to solve this?

Thank you so much for your help.

I installed ffmpeg ver 2.85 and am now able to download the video without any problem.
