 ## Features
 
 - Follows HTTP redirects (up to 5 hops)
+- Scrapes webpages for embedded HLS playlists (`<video>`, `<source>`, data attributes, script references)
 - Supports HLS master playlists (auto-select highest bandwidth variant)
 - Produces `.mp4` output via `ffmpeg`
 - Respects basic HTTP timeouts (30 seconds per request)

 ## Limitations
 
 - Requires `ffmpeg` in `PATH` for transmuxing
+- Webpage scraping is best-effort; dynamic players that load playlists via JS APIs may not be detected
 - No retry logic beyond standard HTTP redirects
