Need help downloading stream from MTV

[sebillia]

Hello.

I'm trying to download a few streams from MTV.de, but my old set of commands doesn't seem to work anymore. I have ffmpeg and youtube-dl (I'm using OS X).

I found the m3u8 file, but the http that I can download the manifest from does not end with m3u8. Here is the link for the best quality:

https://dlvrsvc.mtvnservices.com/api/playlist/gsp.mtviestor/MVI_PROD/umg_int/demp81900...com&cdn=akamai

These are the links for the first two segments - I can download them separately as ts files, but I want to download all at once and merge them automatically, if possible.

This is the link to the video I'm trying to download:

Any ideas? Thanks in advance!

[download] Finished downloading playlist: Guten Tag, liebes Glück

It auto downloads best quality (1080p in this case) if you just paste:

youtube-dl "http://www.mtv.de/musik/videoclips/sadlxj/max-raabe-guten-tag-liebes-glueck-feat-lea-mtv-unplugged"

Also any plugin for web browser (firefox or chrome) can pick up .m3u8 streams, you can just then paste that in FFMPEG as well,
For this clip,that'll be:
https://dlvrsvc.mtvnservices.com/api/playlist/gsp.scenic/international/mtv-intl/series...com&cdn=level3

Thank you very much! Unfortunately, I cannot download it that way (and I only have a Mac atm).

I get the same "no image" error from ffmpeg while using -i with the manifest link.

Perhaps it's a problem with my version of ffmpeg? It would certainly look this way... (alt. path or something of this sort, maybe?)

EDIT: I think I got it now It is a problem with my OS version and dependencies (OpenSSL seems to be the issue).

I managed to get it to work in youtube-dl, but Apple messed stuff up and now other things may malfunction :/ Thank you again!

And if any Mac user has issues - try uninstalling OpenSSL (ignoring all dependencies) and reinstalling it. You might have more hurdles to overcome, so keep that in mind and take note which apps used those libraries. Good luck!
