Show HN: Hlsrecord

This repository contains programs for recording audio and video streams from internet, including television shows and radio. All of these programs are written in C, and are written for the benefit of the viewers and the end users, rather than the benefit of businesses (although there is no restriction about how is allowed to use them, since they are FOSS). The following programs are available: * hlsrecord: Used for recording video streams from HLS. The supported M3U commands are currently: #EXTINF #EXT-X-PROGRAM-DATE-TIME #EXT-X-MEDIA-SEQUENCE #EXT-X-TARGETDURATION #EXT-X-GAP #EXT-X-PLAYLIST-TYPE #EXT-X-CUE-OUT #EXT-X-CUE-OUT-CONT #EXT-X-CUE-IN #EXT-X-ENDLIST Some features are not currently implemented, such as: * Formats and protocols other than HLS. * Dealing with master play lists. * Decrypting encrypted streams. * A more advanced dealing with SCTE-35. * Convert MPEG-TS to VOB (this should probably use other software). * Dealing with the framing of MPEG-TS, MP3, Ogg, etc, so that it can do such things as discarding frames before the first key frame, etc. * Scheduling for multi-user systems, that only one copy needs to be recorded if multiple users request the same recording. * Dealing with TV guide data (in multiple formats, including XML and DER). * Many other M3U commands which are not implemented yet. Some of these may be implemented in future, in some cases it will be in different programs that belong to the same repository, that the multiple programs may be used together when it is appropriate to do so. Some of the other things might be beyond the scope of this project, and would be done by separate programs instead.
