I'm trying to download HLS format video as mp4 using ffmpeg.

I don't want to bother the server side due to excessive requests, so I want to create an interval for ts file acquisition.

When I actually run ffmpeg, I sometimes get an HTTP 429 error as shown below.

In addition, it looked like there are no good options in ffmpeg.

Can you come up with any good way?

Disable multiple HTTP connections

The HLS demuxer has the option -http_multiple:

Use multiple HTTP connections for fetching segments (default auto)

Disabling multiple HTTP connections may help (but probably will not help): ffmpeg -http_multiple 0 -i https://...

I do not see any useful options for the HTTP protocol.

Rate limit

You could try limiting the download speed with a "bandwidth shaper" or rate limiting tool. Example using trickle to run ffmpeg limiting the download capacity to 50 KB/s:

 trickle -d 50 ffmpeg ...

Or if you can use youtube-dl on the web site then you can limit the rate. See youtube-dl rate limit download speed and auto resume download.

manual

Download the M3U8 file and manually download each .ts file listed in the M3U8 file.

You need to disable persistent connection in ffmpeg via -http_persistent 0
