Streaming works just fine with m3u8 videos. |

Huh. Not reproducing on the device I'm on now either. Did you fix something? I was on another system when I was dealing with this issue. Maybe it was an ffmpeg thing. Thanks for reviewing. See if I bump into it again. |

Description
m3u8 videos such as twitch are always stored using an mp4 container. This prevents streaming live video to stdout, as mp4 requires a seekable output.
mkv does not need a seekable output. Ideally the user could select the format.
I've made some changes locally to quickly customize the extension for twitch by reading a
--default-extensionoption, which seems to work fine.
