youtube_stream_capture VS livestream_saver

there are other scripts that can handle it, youtube stream capture is what i've used, but i notice it's gone into read-only mode now, and they recommend ytarchive instead.

there are some tools that can either grab from beginning so it doesn't matter when you start grabbing it (youtube stream capture or ytarchive) or monitor it and start capturing asap (livestream saver)

i use youtube_stream_capture to capture the whole thing while live, until the end. it's two python scripts, one to capture, one to merge the files it grabs into a video afterwards.

I actually suggest you use something like youtube_stream_capture ,that adapted to how youtube streams dash nowdays, over fixing the manifest.

https://github.com/mrwnwttk/youtube_stream_capture might work? not tried it on ended but still in live-mode videos.

well, there is youtube-stream-capture, a two-part script, one to download the pieces, and another to put them together.

Well, that might play a role in it. Just check to see if this line is commented out: https://github.com/mrwnwttk/youtube_stream_capture/commit/8dd148338f935ae9289f5791208766594646b3cf

PS: If there is a better method to do this, I would be very grateful to know about it. I used to use https://github.com/glubsy/livestream_saver, but it doesn't seem to work anymore.

Found this one that worked for me: https://github.com/glubsy/livestream_saver
