[Libav-user] ffmpeg hls and 3 cookies

[Georg Stein SMC]

Hello,

since some days i try now to download from periscope videos what need to 
have a cookie set. In the documentation i only found an example how to 
do this with one single cookie, but i need to hand over 3. Here is waht 
i tried so far, whats not giving me an 403 error:

  ffmpeg -headers 'Cookie:

the result of this is:

i also tried the same with -cookies, but here i always get an 403

when i do the same with wget i get as response the m3u8 playlist:

wget

next question will be, how to set cookies in a c++ app using libavformat

perhaps somebody has this already solved and can help me out here a 
little bit
