Recorded video quality. after patch 6.2

[akwldrk07]

Sorry, I wrote it through a translator.

Thank you for your program.

I previously made a fix through this link and got or4.flv.
→ #210

recording test after the patch, but it was recorded as uhd.flv.
Is there a separate option to get or4?
And can I request an additional option to change the -mode automatic time from 5 minutes to 1 minute? plz

ex)
This is the program I installed while checking for other bugs, and this is where I recorded or4.flv.

Thank you in advance for your wonderful update.

The picture tlr1.png below is your program,
Play : main.py -user UserName -mode automatic -output OutputFolder

and tlr2.png is roju's program.
Play : ttlr.py -user UserName -mode auto -out_dir OutputFolder -ffmpeg -combine

How come you want to get or4? it is lower quality right?

However in the future I will implement the option to select the quality of live

[akwldrk07]

or4 doesn't mean the original?
In those two videos

• uhd.flv was 720p
• or4 was 1080p

I'll test it again and see the video format.

I tested _uhd.flv and _or4.flv, both of which had the same codec and resolution, but _or4.flv had twice the bitrate of _uhd.flv. I think or4 is much higher.

<<I modified it because the order of params was different.

or4 seems to be the original.

game live - hd.flv vs .flv

chat live - hd.flv vs or4.flv

As a workaround, you can replace lines 135 through 157 in '\core\tiktok_api.py' with the following to get or4.

From

    stream_url = data.get('data', {}).get('stream_url', {})

    # TODO: Implement m3u8 support
    # live_url_flv = stream_url.get('hls_pull_url', None)
    # if not live_url_flv:

    live_url_flv = (
            stream_url.get('flv_pull_url', {}).get('FULL_HD1') or
            stream_url.get('flv_pull_url', {}).get('HD1') or
            stream_url.get('flv_pull_url', {}).get('SD2') or
            stream_url.get('flv_pull_url', {}).get('SD1')
    )

    # if flv_pull_url is not available, use rtmp_pull_url
    if not live_url_flv:
        live_url_flv = stream_url.get('rtmp_pull_url', None)

    if not live_url_flv and data.get('status_code') == 4003110:
        raise UserLiveException(TikTokError.LIVE_RESTRICTION)

    logger.info(f"LIVE URL: {live_url_flv}\n")

    return live_url_flv`

To (this is from 'tiktokbot.py' in v5.8)

    live_url_flv = data.get(
        'data', {}).get('stream_url', {}).get('rtmp_pull_url', None)

    if live_url_flv is None and data.get('status_code') == 4003110:
        raise UserLiveException(TikTokError.LIVE_RESTRICTION)

    logger.info(f"LIVE URL: {live_url_flv}\n")

    return live_url_flv`

I provided an additional option in pull request in #241
