mpdGrabber

Experimental, unsupported library + tool to backup mpeg-dash streams.

Think of a dash/mpd only, light version of youtube-dl or ffmpeg stream downloader but 10x faster.

• Audio, video and subtitles (webvtt and ttml) streams are supported (fragmented or not).
• Subtitle streams are also converted to files in case your player doesn't play the embedded version.
• Live streams not supported

Why is it so fast you might ask? Because the streams are downloaded concurrently and reasseembled at the end. When other tools usually download one 1 segment at a time.

What about m3u8/hsls streams?

Take a look at m3u8Grabber

How can I backup

That's not the purpose of this library, write your own wrapper that gets the .mpd and feed it to this library.

Why do I need to have ffmpeg installed?

Because the final stream is currently being assembled using ffmpeg but I might end up doing the muxing in Go myself to drop the dependency later on.
