How to download a MP2T stream?

[EminemMCFC]

Hi, I need to download a MP2T stream. How I can do it?

Thanks

The link this video streams on http://shoof.alkass.net/shoof/index.php?page_no=796&prog_no=7631&video_no=13444

I've found that from the page's code, when entering this site it ays that service is unavailable

@ aazerty: excellent tutorial as usual (comme d'habitude)

@ EminemMCFC
You can use adblock plus firefox addon too to find m3u8 url
1) install adblock plus firefox addon
2) start the video and After 10s stop it
3) click ABP icon click Open blockable items
4) search for 'master.m3u8' (without ' ')
5) copy the url
6) use it with livestreamer as indicated aazerty

[EminemMCFC]

This livestreamer doesn't work... Could you download the video and upload it somewhere?

evidence

It just starts, fills itself in one sec after 4 sec after starting it and immidiatly closes

[biezom]

1) download https://github.com/chrippa/livestreamer/releases/download/v1.11.1/livestreamer-v1.11.1-win32.zip
2) unzip the file in C:\
3) so you have C:\livestreamer-v1.11.1 folder
4) open cmd.exe (command shell)
5) in this command shell go to C:\livestreamer-v1.11.1

cd C:\livestreamer-v1.11.1

6) find your own m3u8 url with Adblockplus addon or with the aazerty's method
7)in your command shell

livestreamer "hlsvariant://http://vod.alkass.net/i/VOD/vids/1423241288_,low,mid,high,.mp4.csmil/master.m3u8?hdnea=st=.........~exp=...........~acl=/*~hmac=..............." best -o video.ts

with in red your own result with adblock plus addon or with the aazerty's method

Another simpler alternative is to use the DownloadHelper addon for firefox. The latest development versions (starting from 5.2a2) support mp2t capture. I used it for capturing live videos in periscope. Works well and easy to use: click the round icon in the toolbar to start recording, the square to stop and save.

Hi there,

I have been dealing with thesame problem as OP for a long time now, I can't seem to fix it properly. Aazerty, I have tried your way of saving these kind of videos. However, when I am at the point of looking for 'master' in the cache entries, it never has a file with that text in it. What am I doing wrong?

[aazerty]

Hi Mr. Del Rio ,

Give us a link for try .

Cheers .

[Mr. Del Rio]

Thanks guys for all the help, really appreciate it. I am still very green with this so I still have some questions.

Livehelper doesn't work for me. When I go to command prompt and add the text C:\livestreamer-v1.11.1, it says 'C:\livestreamer-v1.11.1 is not recognised as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file'.

Biezom: the texts in red, when I open them in a new link, don't work (server not found).

Ponens: how did you get/make those links, I can open them in a new screen, and save them with DLH. But if I want to make those links with the other videos also, can you also show me the name of the text you used in the 'about:cache registration'?

[Mr. Del Rio]

Yes, I've got DLH, but where can I add the red text?

And if I want to save these videos, what text do I have to look for in the 'about:cache' history?

* http://dewerelddraaitdoor.vara.nl/media/339097
* http://dewerelddraaitdoor.vara.nl/media/339085
* http://dewerelddraaitdoor.vara.nl/media/339086.

* http://dewerelddraaitdoor.vara.nl/media/339097
* http://dewerelddraaitdoor.vara.nl/media/339085
* http://dewerelddraaitdoor.vara.nl/media/339086.

Don't worry about "red text" or "about:cache". Forget about those completely.

DLH should just detect the video link automatically as the video is playing. If it doesn't, get the video url manually.

Load the following page...

http://media-service.vara.nl/player/config/config.json.php?id=339097

Change the id at the end for other videos, using the id from the webpage for the video. The page will often have two different qualities for the video, so look for both.

[Mr. Del Rio]

Ponens, thanks for the help. When I look at dlh to look for a specific link, it just gives some names in a list. So what do you mean with getting the link manually, and how did you get that link of "load the following page"? Also, when you speak on the last id on that link do you mean config.json.php?id=339097? Sorry for all those questions, but like I said I am new with this.

[ponens]

If you want to download the video at this page...

http://dewerelddraaitdoor.vara.nl/media/339085

Note the number at the end of the url, here "339085"

Use this template...

http://media-service.vara.nl/player/config/config.json.php?id=

And add 339085 to the end to make...

http://media-service.vara.nl/player/config/config.json.php?id=339085

Load that page, search the result for "mp4". There will usually be two qualities, including a "hq" quality which is higher.

Repeat all of the above steps for a different video from the vara.nl website.

[Mr. Del Rio]

Thanks, that works! Then my other question now however would be, when I want to save another 'mp2t' video in the future, how to get the right template. You already gave me http://media-service.vara.nl/player/config/config.json.php?id=, but I don't know how you got that template.

you can find this with adblock plus addon on firefox

[aazerty]

Hi ,

Thanks to 'ponens' .

@Mr. Del Rio

> ... I don't know how you got that template.
Don't care about this . The main thing is you are able to get the link .
Create for example :

http://media-service.vara.nl/player/config/config.json.php?id=339085

Put the previous link in firefox , you'll get a 'text' window .
In it search for hq.mp4 .

http://download.omroep.nl/vara/2015/04/30/20150430-dwdd-warmingup-hq.mp4

Here you are . That's all .

Cheers .
