ffmpeg/ffprobe will not load manifest

[Chris91]

Can anyone explain why ffmpeg/ffprobe can not load this manifest url:

https://q-hss-skylive-degn.akamaized.net/244431/stream.isml/Manifest?quality=hss5_dd

ffprobe returns:

I know the key but I cant load the manifest.

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

[Chris91]

Is it possible to use that tool in a way similar to how I am using ffmpeg?

ffmpeg -re -cenc_decryption_key <KEY> -i <url> -c copy -f mpegts -map 0:v:<BEST> -map 0:a? -map 0:s? pipe:

N_m3u8DL-RE.exe -h

[Chris91]

Yes I have been playing but not sure why its not piping anything.

N_m3u8DL-RE <URL> --key <KEY> --decryption-binary-path C:\Bento4\bin\mp4decrypt.exe -sv best -sa all -ss all --live-pipe-mux True

The streams are live video which I pipe and stream over http using python and flask. I don't want to save to file.

Me too I'm searching to play in realtime MSS with N_m3u8dl
