Get live video from https://www.coppin.edu/watch

[kukas]

Hello friends,
is there a chance to get the live video of this website? it's free but it's not always on air, this is the schedule
I can help by saying that usually there is no m3u8 but a .ts that changes every few seconds
Thank you!

hard to know without actually seeing the behaviour.
i doubt it would be encrypted, try using idm or stream detector as others have mentioned in other threads.

if you still cant get it, open developer tools, refresh the site and once it starts playing, right click on any request in the network tab and 'save all as har with content' (or similar in other browsers). then upload that file here

I agree with the ElCap.

As for fetching the link, I recommend you try again when the channel is live (i.e. when there's something playing on the channel)

"no m3u8 but a .ts" is probably not so true.
Take Tencent Video (China) as an example, its m3u8 link is hidden in the massive Internet connections.
You could try adjusting the resolution so the client side will send a new request of getting another resolution, and then you could use IDM or something else to sniff the link for you.

Thanks for the replies.
The next event is next Monday, if I can, I'll post what you asked for and i try also with IDM

Even if it's not live at the moment, looking at the code you can see that they use ustream.tv to stream the video, which is supported by yt-dlp. So if all else fails, at least you should be able to feed yt-dlp the URL and take it from there.

easiest way to download from ustream seems to be using streamlink.

in developer tools - network, filter on ustream and copy the embed link
eg. https://www.ustream.tv/embed/18082483

use this command to save the stream to a file called coppin.ts

streamlink https://www.ustream.tv/embed/18082483 best -o coppin.ts --hls-live-restart

(--hls-live-restart Skip to the beginning of a live stream, or as far back as possible.)
