Feature request: Custom variables

Open kont-ta-prova opened this issue 1 year ago • 2 comments

Hi,

Can you add an option to provide formats which are not present in the original mpd?

For example:

If for example, from <AdaptationSet id="1"> I want to download "$RepresentationID$" called VIDEO1 and from <AdaptationSet id="2"> I want to download "$RepresentationID$" called AUDIO1 which are not present in the MPD, would it be possible to override the variables in the mpd?

For example the MPD might offer a lower quality version of video and audio, but the server still has a higher quality version available which is hidden (due to geo locks) but still accessible.

I'm thinking of such an option:

dash-mpd-cli --override "AdaptationSet=1 RepresentationID=VIDEO1" --override "AdaptationSet=2 RepresentationID=AUDIO1" [url]
