    I am a newby at this, and have found a number of related items, but nothing that tells me exactly how to do this.

    I am doing this on a Mac.

    I was trying to download this show: https://www.telemundo.com/shows/2019/05/26/masterchef-latino-2-capitulo-2-arranca-la-competencia

    I was able to download the 525 .ts files (00002.ts - 00526.ts), along with two other files:

    File 1: 00001.key,

    When I open it in TextEdit it has the following line: ‹–`o{Œ0Ó8±7êíõ (I'm assuming it's an encryption key)

    File 2: _video.m3u8, which looks like:

    #EXTM3U
    #EXT-X-TARGETDURATION:10
    #EXT-X-ALLOW-CACHE:YES
    #EXT-X-KEY:METHOD=AES-128,URI="00001.key"
    #EXT-X-PLAYLIST-TYPE:VOD
    #EXT-X-VERSION:3
    #EXT-X-MEDIA-SEQUENCE:1
    #EXTINF:10.000,
    00002.ts
    #EXTINF:10.000,
    00003.ts
    #EXTINF:10.000,
    00004.ts
    #EXTINF:10.000,
    00005.ts
    #EXTINF:10.000,
    00006.ts
    #EXTINF:10.000, etc to 00526.ts

    I tried to concatenate 00002.ts-00526.ts into an mp4 file, but it was not readable. I'm assuming it's encrypted.

    My question: how to turn these .ts files into a usable mp4 file. Can I use ffmpeg with encrypted files to make an mp4?

    Many thanks in advance!

    You need to concatenate the TS files from 00002.ts - 00526.ts into a single file. I can't advice you how to do this on a MAC If the resulting final file is encrypted then there is little you can do about that. Post a Mediainfo file (text tree) of one of the TS files or try playing one. If you see an image then you may be in luck

  3. I can't help you on a Mac. But with Windows you can use the command line program youtube-dl (there are GUI front ends available for it):

    Code:
    youtube-dl https://www.telemundo.com/shows/2019/05/26/masterchef-latino-2-capitulo-2-arranca-la-competencia
    Downloaded, decrypted, and concatenated on the fly.

    Jagabo -- many thanks, worked like a charm! I've tried many different suggestions, and was on the verge of giving up.
