HLSOriginals — Episode 01

This player streams in small chunks (an .m3u8 playlist + segments) — the way most video platforms deliver video.

LESSON 2 — STREAMING PLATFORMS

HLS streams: chunks joined into one file

Hit the big play button to start streaming.
Clipmoth detects the playlist and shows an HLS entry in the popup.
Click Save. Clipmoth downloads every chunk and joins them into one file. A progress bar shows how far it has got.

Expected item: HLS Saved as: one .ts/.mp4 file Also shown: a progress bar

Most video sites on the web deliver video this way, so this lesson covers the majority of sites.
