Selecting the video quality #49

Closed limaalef closed 3 months ago

limaalef commented 9 months ago

Hello!

First of all, thank you. Your program helped me a lot!

So I have some problems to selecting the best video quality in some cases.

The manifest is like this:

Streams in period #1, duration 8940.932s:
audio mp4a.40.2         |    93 Kbps |  lang=por
audio mp4a.40.2         |    93 Kbps |  lang=org
video avc1.640029       |   512 Kbps |   480x270
video avc1.640029       |  1126 Kbps |   768x432
video avc1.640029       |  1843 Kbps |  1024x576
video avc1.640029       |  4091 Kbps |  1280x720
video avc1.640029       |  6348 Kbps |  1280x720
video avc1.640029       |   512 Kbps |   480x270 role=alternate
video avc1.640029       |  1126 Kbps |   768x432 role=alternate
video avc1.640029       |  1843 Kbps |  1024x576 role=alternate
video avc1.640029       |  4091 Kbps |  1280x720 role=alternate
video avc1.640029       |  6348 Kbps |  1280x720 role=alternate

When i use just --quality best the program download one of two 1280x720@6348 Kbps (@ 59,94 fps), but i dont know what, if the main option or the alternate

When i add --prefer-video-width 1280 the program download one of two 1280x720@4091 Kbps (@ 29,97 fps) , but again i dont know what, if the main option or the alternate

In this case, there are two options of each quality because the service provide main streams as expected and the other option is something like a sequence of screenshots and isnt the normal videostream (i really dont know why)

I got the information that yt-dlp provide to try explain this case

So, is there any way that I can select the exact option I want to download?

PS: adding the raw MPD

PS 2: I downloaded the version 0.2.8 ans worked as I wanted, saving my target version (id=dzEzM2Of).

When you say "--quality best" and the MPD includes a bandwidth attribute, as is the case here, the stream with the highest bandwidth will be chosen.

There should probably be an option to allow you to specify the ids of the streams you want explicitly, but you can solve your problem using the XSLT rewriting functionality. You want to "drop" the AdaptationSet elements which have a Role child with value="alternate". You need to write an XPath expression to identify those AdaptationSet elements (see the doc, you will also need to make sure the xsltproc commandline application is installed). Probably something like 

--drop-elements "//mpd:AdaptationSet[.//mpd:Role[@value='alternate']]"

When you say "--quality best" and the MPD includes a bandwidth attribute, as is the case here, the stream with the highest bandwidth will be chosen.

There should probably be an option to allow you to specify the ids of the streams you want explicitly, but you can solve your problem using the XSLT rewriting functionality. You want to "drop" the AdaptationSet elements which have a Role child with value="alternate". You need to write an XPath expression to identify those AdaptationSet elements (see the doc, you will also need to make sure the xsltproc commandline application is installed). Probably something like

--drop-elements "//mpd:AdaptationSet[.//mpd:Role[@value='alternate']]"

Thank you so much
