Here is the output from youtube-dl when I try:-

I have found a solution and wonder if there is anyway for youtube-dl to extract this information:-

In Firefox (106.0.2) in tab with video (https://ici.radio-canada.ca/info/videos/1-8211318/youth-special-29-septembre-1962) I selected (rt click) Inspect (Q) which brings up a diagnostics bar at bottom of page. From this I selected Network

When I start the video I can see traffic as video is uploaded

If I select a line in the output (rt click)->Copy Value->Copy URL I get the address of one packet of the video Here are 3 lines and it is easy to see the packet sequence Having got that I just used wget to get the packages (note the difference in segment number)
