Provide a description that is worded well enough to be understood

Many government agencies use the cablecast.tv platform for streaming live and recorded video. The video is broken up into four-second .ts file chunks.

Provide verbose output that clearly demonstrates the problem

• Run your yt-dlp command with -vU flag added (yt-dlp -vU <your command line>)
• If using API, add 'verbose': True to YoutubeDL params instead
• Copy the WHOLE output (starting with [debug] Command-line config) and insert it below

Sorry, not sure why it dumped that way. I just re-ran it without using my typical script call and edited the issue with the correct output.
