I'm getting an "Invalid data found when processing input" when trying to copy this stream:

I believe the issue may be server side.I got a 500 error off akamai.that link is all over the Internet.I often pull my m3u8 files off akamai with: ffmpeg -i https://akamai.net/this.m3u8 -c copy that.m3u8If the master m3u8 contains multiple bitrate m3u8 files you may want to use one of those instead.


This is a bitrate stream (note the _g.m3u8)
