Downloading Nicovideo Timeshift videos.

[sbirbz]

Hello!

What I need help/guidance with: Downloading timeshifted live broadcasts from nicovideo.jp

Experience: Beginner

Methods/Software I've tried: Youtube-DL (TarTube GUI version), pretty much every video/live stream extension for Chrome and Firefox, Bigasoft Video Downloader, Internet Download Manager.

I belong to a subscription Nicovideo channel that does live broadcasts and then makes them available for 7 days after the original airing (timeshifting). I'd like to be able to save a copy to keep for after the timeshift expires but Nico's system resists virtually every "easy" solution.

Here is one of the videos (non-members can view a portion for free but I would be signing in.) The video is delivered in an ongoing series of 30 second m3u8 playlists (Chrome console screenshot). On other sites I've been able to use IDM to grab and arrange these sorts of videos in the past but, again, Nico won't let me do it.

If anyone could point me in the right direction here I would greatly appreciate it!

Thanks!

Unfortunately I got the following error:

Make sure you are using the latest version; type youtube-dl -U to update. Be sure to call youtube-dl with the --verbose flag and include its complete output.

I'm guessing maybe that those token ids change each time the video is accessed? Also, I would be logging in to get the full video. I've read about adding an account file to youtube-dl?
