  1. So I read and followed what was written here, but I end up getting an error not mentioned in the thread.

    I get:

    usage: livestreamer.exe [OPTIONS] [URL] [STREAM]
    livestreamer.exe: error: unrecognized arguments: best
    off?

    I have no idea why I'm getting that since I change the url and type the code just as the post said to. Ideas?

  3. Hmm. Maybe I'm not copying the right url...?

    Code:
    livestreamer "hlsvarient://https://bngn-vh.akamaihd.net/i/43383936/35470338/smil/US/00002/816248653689179.smil/manifest.m3u8?hdnea=st=1431896716~exp=1431897016~acl=/*~hmac=fc15279eb8795aceebaa1d43f3f85b6acc4ce9eb1766a906913006481a52d447&g=JJKEVCNTYVQS&hdcore=3.2.0" best -o test
    I even used the code you provided and no dice. Did I somehow break livestreamer? If so, how do I go about fixing it?

    first hlsvariant and not hlsvarient

    second in green you can't copy the code because expire you need find your own code

    Code:
    livestreamer "hlsvariant://https://bngn-vh.akamaihd.net/i/43383936/35470338/smil/US/00002/816248653689179.smil/manifest.m3u8?hdnea=st=1431896716~exp=1431897016~acl=/*~hmac=fc15279eb8795aceebaa1d43f3f85b6acc4ce9eb1766a906913006481a52d447&g=JJKEVCNTYVQS&hdcore=3.2.0" best -o test.ts

  5. I feel like an idiot for misspelling, but I put the following in and still got the same issue...

    Code:
    livestreamer "hlsvariant://https://bngn-vh.akamaihd.net/i/43383936/35470338/smil/US/00002/816248653689179.smil/manifest.m3u8?hdnea=st=1431899653~exp=1431899953~acl=/*~hmac=33ad45d98a22231bf8b887b4a4c54b649da63c421d1d79eceaee51a2da8ac93d&g=IFVTUQNMLYUW&hdcore=3.2.0" best -o test.ts
    EDIT: I finally got it to work. I can't pinpoint what I was doing wrong after you helped me, but it seemed to work after I deleted a .bat file I tried making for a different download and updating livestreamer. I didn't think the .bat file would mess with it.

    Thank you for helping me.

    Perhaps it was a question of speed.

  7. Would you folks happen to know how to resolve this error in livestreamer?

    error: Failed to open output: video.mp4 ([Errno 13] Permission denied: 'video.mp4')


    I think it's a permissions issue, but I can't find anything on how to resolve it. Using Windows.

    when you run cmd.. run it with admin privileges and then browse to wherever your livestreamer.exe is.. and then try ripping...
