--crawl-media-sources

LicensePRO

Fetch the source URLs of every <audio>/<video> on each walked page so media the browser would otherwise defer until playback is archived. zshot fetches the files directly rather than through the decode/playback pipeline, so it works regardless of codec and pulls them at full speed; an HLS or live src yields only the manifest as written. Applies to crawl and sitemap walks. Requires WARC output.

Example

zshot -t warc -f site.warc.gz --crawl-links --crawl-media-sources https://example.com
