TS is temp folder, all .ts file are in it. The path of it is %temp_file_path%/TS, in the test case, it is in ./TS. If the mission is not complete, the m3u8 file and TS folder will be reserved, you can instance a new downloader with corresponding TS folder and m3u8 file, and use the start() function to begin, in this way, the mission will go on.

after download and download successfully

the structure of ./ is:

.
├── test.mp4
└── test.py

If some .ts download failed, the module will redownload for 4 times, and the information will print to the command line

at last, the command line is like this:

if complete

The attribute if_complete of class M3u8_Download can used to find if the download is conplete. In this example, we can use

a = downloader.if_complete # a == False means the downloading is incomplete.

5. restart

If you want to restart a incomplete mission, you only should use the corresponding TS folder and .m3u8 file.
