Reopened after discussion in #995. |
While trying to solve #986 I found that HD videos can be downloaded using the data contained in a m3u8 manifest, a quick hack can be used to download all the parts of the video
But I think it will be more usefult to write a downloader for m3u8 manifests, so all sites that use this format can be easily added and the user get a unique file with the complete video. For that 2 steps need to be done:
If you find that is better to just use the method I have already posted, I can clean that and commit it.
