I can supply the exact ffmpeg command I use in the script for the download if
that would make it better suited here...

#!/bin/bash
URLFILE="/path/to/urlfile"
read -r VIDEOURL M3U8URL < $URLFILE #URLFILE referer and m3u8 URL
MODE="-referer \"${VIDEOURL}\""
CAPTURETIME="$1"
TARGETFILE="$2"
CMD="ffmpeg -hide_banner ${MODE} -i \"${M3U8URL}\" -vf scale=w=-4:h=480 -c:v
libx264 -preset fast -crf 26 -c:a copy -t ${CAPTURETIME} ${TARGETFILE}"
eval "$CMD" #Run the download
