"N_m3u8DL-RE" joins m3u8 files?

[axnspain]

Hello. Does the "N_m3u8DL-RE" program not join m3u8 files?

I ask this because it downloads the m3u8 contents well, but then it doesn't join them, it leaves the fragments in .ts in a folder. I have FFMPEG on but it doesn't pay attention. What am I doing wrong? Thank you

It will be easier to get help if you specify the argument you use.

just make sure you don't use --skip-merge

N_m3u8DL-RE do all the merging and muxing.
--mux-after-done, -M

N_m3u8DL-RE.exe "link" -M format=mp4

[lomero]

with --binary-merge you have a final .ts video (more speed to join with ffmpeg)

mp4 container or also mkv is needed when you have also subs to be add

I put this

N_m3u8DL-RE "https://vbd.mediaset.es/orivod/vod/bitmovin/7b/39/7b392c54-2bd9-4e78-89de-187615f59626/main.ism/picky.m3u8?hdnts=st=1696176212~exp= 1696190612~acl=/*~hmac=78b71975eedea68fc64bd69b4eba0e399e71f93a08c a481a940d2665f944bd84 -M format=mp4"

but it doesn't do anything, I get an error. What would the link and command be like so that when you finish downloading the m3u8 I leave it together in an mp4 file?

Well no, he doesn't listen to me. When I enter that I get this error.

What does the download link matter, if you already have the m3u8?

What I want is to download it in m3u8 and when it's finished put all the .ts together in an mp4 file, but there is no way.

Well, it doesn't look like it's FFMPEG.

I don't know what it could be, but the thing is that it downloads the m3u8 fine, but when you convert it to mp4 it stays in a loop and gives the MUX error

try with

N_m3u8DL-RE "https://m3u8" --binary-merge

with this command N_m3u8DL-RE use ffmpeg to join all segments in final .ts video without mp4 container

if your trouble persist, is cause of ffmpeg

Indeed, with this command the download and union of the fragments is carried out, giving rise to a single .ts file

Don't you convert it to mp4 somehow?

[lomero]

no need. all player (like VLC, mpv, potplayer) play .ts file, no problem with this format

also tv decoder play fine this extension.

.ts is MPEG Transport Stream

anyway if you want converter ts to mp4 use simply:

ffmpeg -i video.ts -map 0 -c copy output.mp4
