Description of your issue, suggested solution and other information

Attempting to download from TBS because their site is garbage and takes forever to get working. It used to work fine. Now I'm having trouble getting it to download past the first commercial. If I use ffmpeg, I'm guaranteed to only get up to the first commercial. Other issues suggest using --hls-prefer-native, so I switched to that. I still end up with just the first segment (764.22MiB), but now I get ERROR: av_interleaved_write_frame(): Invalid argument on top of that. The only solution I can find for that issue is to use --prefer-ffmpeg (#15010, #9631), which won't work since I'll only get the first segment (up until the ads).

Someone else seems to be encountering the same issue: https://github.com/rg3/youtube-dl/issues/15395#issuecomment-360715386 I get a very similar (enormous) log if I use ffmpeg. For seg-0 URLs, it works fine. For seg-1 and beyond:

I tried --include-ads, as well; no luck.

The URL I provided as an example doesn't require MSO auth. For URLs in the same series that require MSO auth, I'm encountering #16084 as well, which should be easier to fix.

Zenexer commented 6 years ago

It seems all the data is downloaded, but the duration is wrong. Workaround: run ffmpeg -i <input.mp4> -c copy <output.mp4>

Edit: Okay, that doesn't work, but the data is definitely there.

HyperPlaneSubSpacePilot commented 6 years ago

Try using this flag: --hls-prefer-native Just downloaded it with that and it worked. Don't know why it doesn't work with FFMPEG though.

Zenexer commented 6 years ago

@HyperPlaneSubSpacePilot That log I provided is with --hls-prefer-native. It doesn't fix the issue.

It seems that no matter what I do, the wrong time is recorded. The full video will still be there, but nothing can play past the first ad break.

cameronetchart commented 6 years ago

Using 2018.04.25, I downloaded this TBS video using the --hls-prefer-native flag and it worked; MPC shows the episode as 23 minutes and it plays through fine. I encounter the same errors without the flag though.

tinystarship commented 5 years ago

I am running into this issue downloading from Cartoon Network, another Tuner site. It only downloads the first 11 min until the first commercial break, but the file is 2GB, which makes me think it's all there.

I've tried --hls-prefer-natiive, --include-ads, --hls-use-mpegts, --keep-fragments

Fyi, this is the video I'm trying to download: https://www.cartoonnetwork.com/video/ben-10/innervasion-episode.html

I have this over and over in the event log: Non-monotonous DTS in output stream 0:0; previous: 60413327, current: 2726727; changing to 60413328. This may result in incorrect timestamps in the output file.

Anyone ever figure it out?

glenn-slayden commented 4 years ago

If you're able to stick with --prefer-ffmpeg, the following youtube-dl option fixed the av_interleaved_write_frame() error for me:

--postprocessor-args "-vsync drop"

[edit:] additional details here

aaronflorey commented 4 years ago

Is there anything we can do to get this working? Or Provide the developers with anything?

remitamine commented 4 years ago

you can start by providing a publically accessible URL(does not require an account) that has this problem.

aaronflorey commented 4 years ago

This one doesn't require an account, but it is US only, so you may need a VPN.

remitamine commented 4 years ago

testing with HLS native downloader(with --hls-prefer-native option) the full video(23 minutes) has been downloaded and it's playable with VLC 3.0.8 and MPV 0.30. the manifest contains multiple discontinuity tags that are causing the problems with FFmpeg/LibAV: the tags used by Turner are:

#EXT-X-DISCONTINUITY
#EXT-X-CUE-OUT:0

remitamine commented 4 years ago

and even with the latest version of FFmpeg(4.2.1) the downloaded file is fully playable. so either update FFmpeg to the latest version or use --hls-prefer-native option.

I ran it on 4.2.1 with hls-prefer-native, and i got a 8m video from it. A few other people are having the same issue. Might just have to wait and see if anyone can figure it out.

remitamine commented 4 years ago

you didn't post the part when the download process is done(just to verify that the HLS Native Downloader is the one used to download the file). so, it would be better to put this part as well and also state what is the player you're using to play the file and its version. the quality I have downloaded is(i did check that it has the same discontinuities):

hls-880      mp4        640x360     880k , avc1.42001e, 29.97fps, mp4a.40.2

other differences such as the OS(Linux vs Window) and Python version(3.8.0 vs 2.7.16) should not be relevant. as I can't reproduce the problem, there is nothing that I can do to help.

sheik124 commented 4 years ago

I don't know if this helps, but I was able to get this working after reading these linked issues, including subtitles after running CCExtractor as well.

This downloads the file correctly. Then I ran CCExtractor (GUI, I'm lazy) to dump an SRT conversion of the embedded EIA_608 captions. With iTunes files, ffmpeg can read them because they're a separate stream, but Turner has them embedded in the video stream.

Not sure if -vsync cfr is necessary or not, but as far as I can tell, 1. It's not interlaced anyways, 2. Adult Swim/Cartoon Network "broadcast" and upload online at 29.97p. I think the 59.94 time base tag that ends up dropping from the output video stream is only present in the source for ads' sake?

This gives me an MKV with:

Proper runtime
Working seeking
Original metadata
SRT subtitles
And thumbnails...

There isn't a way to have youtube-dl do the last two steps, is there? With or without the thumbs.

I have tried the solutions presented in this bug and I am still having this issue on

Issue seems to be still there. I tried to download this: Adultswim but I only manage to get a 11:39min long video file. The only error I see is Non-monotonous DTS in output stream 0:1; previous. --postprocessor-args "-vsync drop" is not helping and -use_wallclock_as_timestamps 1 is also not working.
