Is it possible with FFMPEG to convert a m3u8 to a MP4 and keep the captions (text) track?
When looking at the Apple stream, https://devimages.apple.com.edgekey.net/streaming/examples/bipbop_4x3/bipbop_4x3_variant.m3u8 I see that the video stream makes mention of Closed Captions, but I can't seem to find a way to extract them.
Stream #0:0: Video: h264 (Main) ([27][0][0][0] / 0x001B), yuv420p(tv, smpte1 70m/smpte170m/bt709), 400x300, Closed Captions, 29.92 fps, 29.92 tbr, 90k tbn, 1 80k tbc
The multiple attempts I have made transcode to mp4 but it drops the captions.
I have used VLC on the manifest and it has "subtitles" but after transcode the mp4 doesn't.
Used the command:
ffmpeg -i https://devimages.apple.com.edgekey.net/streaming/examples/bipbop_4x3/bipbop_4x3_variant.m3u8 -c copy -bsf:a aac_adtstoasc out.mp4
