    you can try to add -n followed by some number to your command, to use that many threads to download the video. This will download multiple segments of the video at once, which may speed things up for you.

  3. you might want to consider using the --downloader aria2c or the -N x (where x > 3) flags of yt-dlp

    You could also try N_m3u8DL-RE instead of yt-dlp, this sped up downloads a lot for me. Even with the -N flag for yt-dlp it would still download in bursts, where N_m3u8DL-RE downloads the entire video in one go at full speed.

    Tried -N 10 and -N 200 but no difference in speed on yt-dlp.
    Is this code correct:

    Code:
    $ yt-dlp -f bv+ba -N 10 https://
    This is the download I get, in steps:

  10. you know how to use yt-dlp....same way for N_m3u8DL-RE

    https://github.com/nilaoda/N_m3u8DL-RE/releases

    Download the linux version and put FFmpeg in the same folder

    Open a terminal in the good folder and launch the command:

    Code:
    N_m3u8DL-RE "https://sbs-vod-dai-prod-01.akamaized.net/Content/HLS_AES_TS/VOD/geo/830/10547/c00d6aff-bd0b-40b5-8ab3-244837414a2a/9439a831-9b13-6280-ed4f-cb66148195cb/master.m3u8?hdnea=st=1684246136~exp=1684249736~acl=/Content/HLS_AES_TS/VOD/geo/830/10547/c00d6aff-bd0b-40b5-8ab3-244837414a2a/9439a831-9b13-6280-ed4f-cb66148195cb/*~id=2cfbfdc3-7625-456f-8905-214a6f406939~hmac=a614479e780fe87b402e2adfb623fe2926f45c392e5c2b138b8c2160e09fda00&originpath=/ondemand/hls/content/2488267/vid/1619758659981A/GRQ/streams/9ad3f224-6393-419b-b3ab-12ca351bb55f/master.m3u8" -M format=mp4

    Thanks, but not working.
    https://github.com/nilaoda/N_m3u8DL-RE/releases/download/v0.1.6-beta/N_m3u8DL-RE_Beta_...0230412.tar.gz
    After extraction 1 file only showing.

    https://www.videohelp.com/software/ffmpeg
    Lots of files showing.
    What am I missing?
    Quote Quote  
  12. about N_m3u8DL-RE, yes 1 file only. no need more!

    about ffmpeg, download extract from 'bin' folder only ffmpeg and put on same folder with N_m3u8DL-RE

    then run N_m3u8DL-RE from cmd win, like yt-dlp (see cedric post above)

    It is not how to use, but how to install.
    What, where is bin folder?
    I use Ubuntu 22.04-2

  14. @sven32:

    You're on Ubuntu, but they are giving you Windows advice. Just install ffmpeg with 'sudo apt install ffmpeg' if it isn't installed already (it probably is).

    For N_m3u8DL-RE, you put the file you downloaded in /usr/bin/ and make it executable with 'sudo chmod -x /usr/bin/N_m3u8DL-RE.

    Now you can run them both globally.

    Excellent, that worked!
    Now I can select the video and audio with space and enter.
    After downloading I get 1 folder master_2023-05-20_08-41-43_0__avc1.4d4029_1993353_ with 1.305 items, totalling 323,1*MB all .ts
    and 1 folder master_2023-05-20_09-26-41_1_audio1___ENG with 1.305 items, totalling 90,5*MB all .ts
    (These .ts files play but in steps.)

    However the merged file master_2023-05-20_08-41-43.mp4 MPEG-4 video (video/mp4) is only 50,9*kB (50.877 bytes) and so does not play.

  23. with ffmpeg installed (see post#14) all ts files audio/video is merged into one file only mp4 or mkv

    to this use N_m3u8DL-RE -M format=mkv "https://mpd_link" --save-name xxxxx

    -M format=mkv or also -M format=mp4
