[youtube-dl] Download files from youtube.com or other video platforms
All4 is unsupported by youtube-dl. I think the programmes are protected by DRM. ITV hub does work, for example on a Windows PC (see post #112 in this thread onwards), but not on the HDR-FOX due to missing libraries in python, and the lack of openssl in the compiled version of ffmpeg.- MontysEvilTwin

[youtube-dl] Download files from youtube.com or other video platforms
The 1080 or higher files in the wiki example are video only. It looks for the best available single file with both video and audio: this will be designated with 'best' in parentheses. If you want to specify different streams add --ignore-config to the command line and use the listed codes for...- MontysEvilTwin

[youtube-dl] Download files from youtube.com or other video platforms
The configuration file contains the following setting: "-f best[height<=?1080]" this will download the best available version up to 1920 x 1080. However, the best quality available from BBC iPlayer, for example, is 1280 x 720 (@ 50 fps), so this is what you will get.- MontysEvilTwin

You want to set the reminder to channel 250. This is a red button data channel so you just get a static backdrop on screen, and no writing to the timeshift buffer.- MontysEvilTwin

[youtube-dl] Download files from youtube.com or other video platforms
Yes and no. Download the H264 video with the available 2.0 AAC stream into mp4 and it plays fine. The 5.1 stream is AC-3; the HDR-FOX won't play AC-3 in an mp4 container (even though it is permissible in the mp4 standard) so you have transcode the audio to 5.1 AAC (ffmpeg) which is playable in...- MontysEvilTwin

There is a long list of different global sites supported if you look in the documentation online. I doubt that sites streaming in 4K are doing so without DRM, but I don't know this for a fact.

Odd usb mount from HDD
Virtual-disk2 is the culprit. The latest version of NTFS-3G will install this as a dependency. It is to do with an update to allow NTFS disks with gpt partition tables to be used. The Humax SUI does not recognise when a gpt USB disk is plugged in so it will not open the USB menu. Virtual-disk2...- MontysEvilTwin

I don't think that there is much out there in above 1080p quality anyway: not which is not heavily protected by DRM. Standard iPlayer and ITV hub don't have readily accessible 1080 streams.

Thanks for the explanation. Hopefully @af123 will see these posts and comment. I have no idea whether what is required is a straightforward job or a lot of work. Hopefully the former, as I'm sure that being able to download from the ITV hub would be quite a popular feature.- MontysEvilTwin

In the first instance it would be good to understand why the hlsnative downloader fails.

Plex nvidia shield and .TS problems, question about container?
Interesting that it is OK with m2ts streams with standard def. recordings. For high def. recordings, have you tried keeping the m2ts container and converting the audio to either AAC (ADTS) or AC3?
