# ViihdexDL

A command line tool for downloading HLS streams with multiple audio and subtitle tracks (designed especially for Elisa Viihde recordings) using FFmpeg.

[FFmpeg](https://www.ffmpeg.org) is needed to download streams.
## Installation
Use pip to install ViihdexDL and its dependencies.
```
pip install -U viihdexdl
```

```
viihdexdl "URL" "FILENAME" [OPTIONS]
```
The URL must point to a HLS master playlist.

Options include:
```
-h, --help            show this help message and exit
-v, --verbose         print FFmpeg command
-c CONFIG FILE, --config CONFIG FILE
                      config file
-s, --subonly         download subtitles only
-e, --extsubs         download subtitles to external files
-m, --muxsubs         mux subtitles to video file
-a AUDIO LANGUAGES, --audio AUDIO LANGUAGES

                      subtitle languages
-b, --begin           start live stream from the first segment
-l LIVE_START_INDEX, --live_start_index LIVE_START_INDEX
                      start live stream from segment
-mw MAX_WIDTH, --max_width MAX_WIDTH
                      maximum video width in pixels
-mh MAX_HEIGHT, --max_height MAX_HEIGHT
                      maximum video height in pixels
-mb MAX_BITRATE, --max_bitrate MAX_BITRATE
                      maximum video bitrate (bps)
-r VARIANT, --variant VARIANT
                      select variant
-y, --overwrite       overwrite output files without asking
-n, --never           never overwrite existing files
```
## Settings
Download settings are defined in settings.ini which in Windows systems is located in `%APPDATA%\viihdexdl`.  Preferred languages are set using two-letter ISO 639-1 or three-letter ISO 639-2 [codes](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_ISO_639-1_codes).

                      is set (onlyworks with .mkv files).
maximum bandwidth:    The variant with the highest bitrate below this limit (bit/s) is downloaded.
                      If left empty or set to 0, the best variant is downloaded.
maximum width:        Maximum width (pixels) for video.
maximum height:       Maximum height (pixels) for video.
file extension:       File extension of the output file. Use mkv (preferred) or mp4.
external subtitles    Download subtitles to external files.
rfc 5646 to iso 639:  Convert RFC 5646 language (e.g. nl-NL) tags to ISO 639-1/2 language codes.
iso 639:              Type of language codes to use in metadata.
                      Use alpha_2 (nl), alpha_3 (nld) or alpha_3b (dut).
ffmpeg options:       FFmpeg global and input options.
ffmpeg video codec:   FFmpeg video codec options.
