Hi,
I've downloaded a full TS file from a streaming site (Beamafilm) but when I play it back in VLC player there's only audio and no video.
The output from MediaInfo is:

Does the duration seem correct ? Duration : 3 s 520 ms.
File size : 249 MiB
some suggestions:
try a different player (ex: mpc-hc)
try remuxing to mp4:
ffmpeg -i "input.ts" -c copy "output.mp4"
if needed see: https://forum.videohelp.com/threads/398507-Top10-Commands-for-Lossless-Video-manipulat...eg-%28Guide%29
try opening in an editor such as avidemux. -

Open MKVtoolnix GUI and add your .ts file
Hit the "Start multiplexing" button and create an MKV.
Does that work? -

Thanks, Becca -
If you didn't start with the hls playlist (or master.m3u8), what you've downloaded is likely not complete. It's unlikely that what you've downloaded contains playable video, and you'll need to start over using the playlist.
That very small piece of information doesn't help very much. What does it end with?
Again, how did you download it? Did you use a program, or just click the "download link" or ???
This shouldn't be like pulling teeth. Answer thoroughly so that the same questions don't need to be repeated.
See here and here.Last edited by ponens; 25th Aug 2020 at 14:09.

IDM produced a .ts file, or the source url ends in ".ts"?
IDM used a master.m3u8 & playlist.m3u8 url to produce a .ts output file. This can be checked by right-clicking on the file in IDM, choosing properties, and examining the full address.
Checking the following trailer on beamafilm;
Code:https://beamafilm.com/watch/cobby-the-other-side-of-cute
Code:https://player.vimeo.com/external/444403640.m3u8?s=<code>
The playlist.m3u8 contains seperate audio and video tracks.
Perhaps IDM did not combine the separate audio and video tracks correctly.
Suggest you start over using streamlink. Or, you can keep trying to fix what you've already downloaded with IDM. -
Hi,
Thanks for the explanation.
IDM did use a m3u8 file as you said. Is this an issue with IDM (because beamafilm used to work without any issues) or have beamafilm changed the way they deliver?
I had a look at streamlink. If using streamlink is there any option to download the movie immediately or must it be streamed and recorded through a player like VLC?
Thanks, Bec -
