Extending DASH Stream Merging Support to "Clients" #5563
Comments
|
Just to clarify: do you want youtube-dl to output to stdout the merged video+audio file? |
|
It's possible that's what I'm looking for. I'd like to improve a YouTube add-on for Kodi by adding the ability to parse DASH manifests and pass the actual media to Kodi as they wish it to be done. |
|
Note that you can use the json output and get the urls of the dash video and audio files, some players support using a different audio file. |
|
I don't know that Kodi currently provides the merging functionality, but the JSON output might be a step in the right direction. |
|
Are there any updates to this? Would also love for a way to combine multiple files into one stream for VLC playback. |
|
VLC 3.0 will support DASH manifests so it should be possible to pass the dash manifest url to be able to play dash formats. |
To avoid hijacking #2124
Can youtube-dl be implemented to allow DASH manifest "pre-demuxing" of some sort in other applications? I know mpv does this somehow but I'm more interested in the youtube-dl side of things as the mpv side of things is offtopic.
