The other thing to be aware of is that some stream urls formats like hls of dash contain multiple parallel streams of different resolutions and maybe languages.
ffmpeg usually picks the right sub-stream to dump into the ts file but it might pick the wrong one or dump all of them at once.
If you are in that situation you might need to make a custom m3u or add some code to pick the sub-stream that you need.
All of this complicated logic is why it is best to hand it off to python or another scripting language.
You could actually substitute the ffmpeg exe location in the settings for an executable script and deal with any extra logic in there, like removing the format flag.
