Any tips on saving a YouTube stream (specifically, the ISS camera feed)? What yt-dlp saves is much lower bitrate than what I request it to fetch, and this seems to be a known bug of sorts.
@vruba Very basic but do you know about -F and -f? this gets me the 720p stream right now with yt-dlp version 2024.03.10: yt-dlp -f 311 'https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P9C25Un7xaM'
@nelson I know about them but it’s possible I’m using them wrong. I picked a terrible time to post this, because the stream is both off and on the night side right now, but if you run that when it actually works, it seems to be much lower-quality than what plays in a browser at the same time.
@vruba FWIW trying another live source I get a 1080p h264 stream at 3748kbps. I'm not certain what bitrate the browser window gets but visual quality is roughly similar. So maybe it's working?
yt-dlp -f 270 'https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3LXQWU67Ufk'(New mystery here; yt-dlp can't find the 1440p version of this one.)
