Support live streams in MPEG DASH #10787
Comments
m4s are supported. The real cause is that live DASH streams are not supported yet. Would you like to share where you got this mpd link? UPDATE: Sorry I didn't see there are already some examples in the original post. |

as a work around, you can use the m3u8 url: |

+1 This would be very nice! |
|
Any plans to implement this soon? |

Supporting this requires lots of changes. I don't think it can be done in a short time. See #9109 for the first step. Third party solutions like mp4client of gpac can be used as of now. |

Thanks for the suggestion! |

Long time w/o trying it, but I think https://github.com/streamlink/streamlink also support YT Live streams. Check -o examples for recording the stream. |

Apparently DASH isn't supported on streamlink as well. I'm able to watch Youtube livestream atm using mpv + youtube-dl, however it's capped @30FPS. I've tried using MP4Client + youtube-dl but it doesn't seem to work (though I'm not sure if I'm using this correctly): |

Audio and Video need to be downloaded together, most likely by somehow using 2 fragment contexts within DashSegementsFD (FragmentsFD would likely have to be changed as well for this to work), but first, DashSegmentsFD needs to be fed both at the same time. Other than that, it's possible to hack around the other issues (not exactly pretty, but it works). |

Seems like youtube-dl does not support m4s container for MPEG DASH streams.
