Well i m streaming one url "http://url/123.m3u8" it gives good quality while streaming
but when i want to save that streaming video data using --o parameter it gives me worst/blurry video quality

Is that possible to save same streaming quality into .mp4 or .ts
thank you

--o is for encoding mode, you either have to tweak your encoding settings if you really want to reencode or use --stream-dump= instead.

--stream-record is the new way intended to handle this.

@wm4 wel stream-record option not found
@Akemi however --stream-dump doesn't redirect from multiple .ts file. it just only m3u8 and exit

[Akemi]

that's why wm4 said to use --stream-record. you have to update your mpv version to git master.
