  1. hallo,
    i want to play a dash live stream. it uses for audio and video a different cenc key.

    it's not really a solution but i can play audio and video with two seperate ffplay's.

    ffplay -headers "$UA" -cenc_decryption_key $VKEY "$URL" &
    ffplay -nodisp -headers "$UA" -cenc_decryption_key $AKEY "$URL"

    my question, does anybody know a solution for this?
    does anybody know a player (on linux) that takes 2 keys?

    or something like this? this does not work!!
    mkfifo audio
    ffplay -nodisp -cenc_decryption_key $AKEY audio &
    yt-dlp --allow-unplayable-formats "$URL" -o - | tee audio | ffplay -cenc_decryption_key $VKEY -


    thanks for help,
    hubert

  2. N_m3u8DL-CLI can use a key file. As far as I understood this it should work for both streams if you put both keys in a key file, so Nm3u should "brute force" and try both keys for each stream.
    It then will download two streams parallel, video and audio. You can then open both streams at the same time with vlc, I do this a lot, works and is in-sync.
    After watching you might delete the downloaded streams.

  3. thanks, N_m3u8DL-CLI looks interesting,

    but unfortunately I use linux and i could not find a linux version of N_m3u8DL-CLI?

    is there something similar available for linux?

    Can you use N_m3u8DL-CLI (with a key file) and pipe output to ffplay?

  6. This had been asked a few times, as far as I know: No, up to now. But not sure, the author seems to be fast in improving.
