[HELP] Capture embedded stream

[kenryuakuma]

First of all this is the link

http://gotv.tvb.com/programme/103216/trailer

Capturing this stream or download it is really a hard nut to crack. I have tried all several methods or approaches, but the link cannot still be detected and hope somebody with the skills could help and tell me how to get it.

- URL Snooper doesn't detected link.
- Links cannot be found manually by looking at the source info.
- Getflv cannot detect it either.

Again thanks in advance if you could help. Greatly appreciate that.

BTW, there is an error when I tried to download it, is it because since the trailer is hosted in HK, so there is a restriction because I have to use VPN?

i sniffed the traffic to find

http://token.tvb.com/stream/vod/rtmps/hecontent6/3789/000000378879.mp4?feed

and i replaced rtmps by hls to have hls protocol instead of rtmps

use ffmpeg it's less sensitive with timeout

ffmpeg -i "http://e1b.vdowowza.vip.hk3.tvb.com/vipo/_definst_/smil:vipo/he6/1390/138969/138969_mobile_hd.smil/playlist.m3u8?ts=1457365321&sig=242508b15ca6571330e4a9575a1e64a7" -c copy video2.ts

Follow Biezom's guides, I downloaded videos with quality 720p (1100000 bitrate). Can we take video with better quality (1080p) and higher bitrate, Biezom ?

[kenryuakuma]

Thanks so much Biezom, you are the best. But unfortunately, the one above is the mobile version without subtitles. Is there a way to get the original version of the video with dual audios and subtitles? Greatly appreciate that.
