Thanks for all of the answers. I downloaded this m3u8 file: https://cbcliveradio-lh.akamaihd.net/i/CBCR1_EKI@106780/index_96_a-b.m3u8 then in the above file I downloaded the following m3u8 file: https://cbcliveradio-lh.akamaihd.net/i/CBCR1_EKI@106780/index_96_a-b.m3u8?sd=10&rebase=on but now I have some .ts files, I get error 404 if I try to download one of those file. Where should I go from here? I'd like to understand where/how I can find a direct URL to the m4a stream from the above (VLC does it, so I should be able to do the same). As suggested I will look at transcoding if I can't find that direct URL. -- John Doe
