The video length keeps getting corrupted #1623

For example, I'm downloading a kitten video with the command:

livestreamer --hls-live-edge 99800 --hls-segment-threads 5 -o ~/Desktop/test123.ts https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2xAoAHgVr3w best

I'm monitoring the length of the video with the commnd

ffmpeg -i $1 2>&1 | grep Duration | cut -d ' ' -f 4 | sed s/,//

00:24:10.01 00:26:10.01 00:28:25.01 ... 01:13:07.00 21:33:43.72

So it's fine until there's some sort of issue with the stream, in this case that happens after about an hour

here's a link to a ts recording with a messed up length. 21 hours when in actuality it's 1 hour and change. I have no idea how to get it back to normal.

I can convert the file with Handbrake and it's fine but I'm looking for a way to fix the video length without converting.
