QUESTION: Any plans to make this work for live video? #1

This currently works for vod. Any plans for adapting this for live video? For instance, how about generating the webvtt and sprite files in real time and in tandem with an encoded stream such as HLS or DASH?

Hi, sounds interesting.

Scripts are working with both HLS and DASH right now. Moreover, they can generate sprites even if you provide link to live video as an argument, but the thumbnails will not be generated because the live video is meant to be infinite. I will add this feature to my plans. (But if you only need sprites, you can generate them right now)

Looking back on my code now ( written more than a year ago) I realize there are so many features and configs that should be added or updated. Overall, I have to rewrite the code, optimize it. But any contribution will be appreciated :)
