sorry for my bad English
For a certain reason, i have m3u8(s) file on my PC,
I can play it (stream it) on Media Player Classic flawlessly,
but I like to download and convert it to mp4,
[yes, I know the m3u8 is a playlist and does not contain any streams]
I tried ffmpeg to convert, and ffplay to play, but both failed,
I tried vlc "convert", but only the first "scene" that converted,
any clue, tips, link, software, google keyword is enough,
please help me!
Try StreamFab Downloader and download from Netflix, Amazon, Youtube! Or Try DVDFab and copy Blu-rays! or rip iTunes movies!

Install ffmpeg, download and put yt-dl.exe to the folder with ffmpeg.exe. Create .bat file in the same folder with lines:
Code:yt-dlp ytsearch:yourfilename.m3u8 pause
It is sometimes possible that you'll get a .webm file instead (if it has the max resolution), then you'll need some debugging in your .bat. -
@Sagnik
no it not protected, and all m3u8 to mp4 converter usually very inconvinient to use
@Alex_ander
it not youtube video
after i google, i download the "ts parts" inside m3u8 as jpg,
in m3u8, find and replace all "ts" to "jpg"
then convert it using ffmpeg
ffmpeg -i D:\video001.m3u8 -acodec copy -vcodec copy D:\video001.mp4Last edited by kucing; 11th Jun 2024 at 06:44.

It's source doesn't matter (it even could be an iPlayer source - inside UK, of course).
An m3u8 file is a text file with links to the streaming server. Since you are able to use it in a standalone player, your file contains full path URLs (like 'master' m3u8 files do). You can also manually choose a link from it to a version with desired resolution, then use that specific link in yt-dlp. -
