How to Download Previous Segments of a Live Stream?

[Samudragupta]

The stream is an MPD with Clearkey encryption. I have the keys and the url. I can live record the stream via N_M3U8.

Key:

ea90862c38225601bc485c6b58c7970a:0786cbf259ac96e5bb17ea882f19121b

URL:

https://bpweb5.akamaized.net/bpk-tv/irdeto_com_Channel_145/output/manifest.mpd?hdnea=exp=1715089911~acl=/*~hmac=219dedfd192de439a40605c9f543cfdc7745889c959d98f6e26df0b70d2755a2

When I play this stream via https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/videoplayer-mpdm3u8m3uepg/opmeopcambhfimffbomjgemehjkbbmji
I was able to seek to previous streams. I could play at least 3 hours of already-aired video. How can I download these previous segments/content/video streams for offline viewing?

Thank you

You might try using:

--live-perform-as-vod

This alone might not be enough though, but it's worth trying.

You can try with

 yt-dlp --live-from-start --allow-u "your_mpd_link"

and then decrypt with mp4decrypt

Done. In the end it displays, "merging binaries" and binaries merged
But, in the root folder, I still have a mp4 without audio and audio tracks as m4a. How to also mrge these together?

Please send the mp4 decrypt code as well. Thank you.

Please send the mp4 decrypt code as well.

mp4decrypt --key kid:key encrypt.mp4 decrypt.mp4

mp4decrypt --key kid:key encrypt.mp4 decrypt.mp4

I first downloaded the stream via yt-dlp. But the audio and video are seperate. After decrypting video, it didnt play.
However, using N_m3u8, it worked. Only problem was that video-audio didnt merge.

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

--live-real-time-merge
--live-pipe-mux

Might be suitable


or use ffmpeg

ffmpeg -i video.mp4 -i audio.m4a-c copy output.mp4

TATAPLAY offers catch-up, so you can cover a good chunk of events. I was about to drop help in the previous thread you posted, but seeing how it vanished... no more.
