Hi,

Fabulous tool. Please keep up the good work. Any thoughts about the following? I'm using what apears to be the latest version dated 2014-03-22. Thanks in advance.

    SBS has started using Adobe HDS to distribute some of their content. WebDL only knows how to download the regular HTTP and RTMP stuff.

    One day I hope to find time to add support for Adobe HDS as well.

    The python iview downloader seems to be able to download some of that new iview adobe hds content perhaps you could check how its implemented in that program.

    This has been fixed now. You'll need to install livestreamer for it to work. Please have a look at the new README.
