About:
dash-mpd-cli is a command-line tool for downloading media streams specified by DASH (Dynamic Adaptive Streaming over HTTP) manifests. It parses MPD files to retrieve audio and video segments, handling the complexities of segment selection and assembly. This utility provides a straightforward way to archive or process streaming media content directly from the terminal.
Key Features:
  • Supports both DASH-MPEG and DASH-WebM formats
  • Handles adaptive bitrate streaming to select optimal quality
  • Command-line interface for easy scripting and automation
  • Can download and mux audio/video streams into a single file
Use Cases:
  • Archiving streaming content for offline access
  • Automated downloading of media for processing pipelines
  • Debugging or analyzing DASH manifest structures
Alternatives:
  • yt-dlp – yt-dlp is a broader tool for many sites, while dash-mpd-cli focuses specifically on raw MPD manifests.
  • ffmpeg – ffmpeg can download DASH streams but requires complex command-line arguments; dash-mpd-cli simplifies the process.
