MPD livestream download issue

[snow_]

Hi there,

How can I download a livestream like this one?
https://tvgo.orange.ro/player/d/bQ9RDUnp7ZmfQ8QXgU-CIxUiDXTvSmTgt1FVdISt
[you might need a Romanian IP address for this]

I know how to get the MPD URL, I have the decryption keys, but N_m3u8DL-RE doesn't work very well...

N_m3u8DL-RE most times gets stuck at "Live recording limit reached, will stop recording soon" or won't save any file at all...

The command I've tried is something like:

N_m3u8DL-RE "MPD-URL" --decryption-binary-path "packager-win-x64.exe" --use-shaka-packager --key xxxxx:yyyyy -mt -M format=mp4:keep=false -sv best -sa best --live-real-time-merge --live-record-limit 00:05:00

Just try to record 5 minutes to see for yourself.

It doesn't matter if I try to use shaka-packager or mp4decrypt.exe...

Most of the time I need to capture 1 hour of the livestream.

Looks like this is a bug, perhaps someone can help.

N_m3u8DL-RE is kinda bugged for livestreams. If it gets stuck you can just Ctrl+C and exit. You can then remux the ts file yourself.

The saved file seems broken. The audio keeps cutting out at random times.

How long did it take you to download the stream?

I recorded 2 minutes of the live stream just for testing purposes and noticed the audio issue.

So... any other solution?
