I found that I could use --hls-livetv-opts="-acodec copy -vcodec copy" to override the transcoding.

Hello :-) This is a most important find! I haven't really experimented with LiveTV inside GiP, (I am legally off-limits), the very little tests I conducted were via standalone FFmpeg commands for "academic" purposes... I am aware of the analogous radio option,
--hls-liveradio-opts
but it only relates to re-muxing, since liveradio (AppleHLS streams) does not need recoding - so my mind did not go to "--hls-livetv-opts" which indeed, according to --helplong:

"Add custom options to ffmpeg HLS download encoding for livetv"

But, of course, your FFmpeg binary should support "-c:v copy -c:a copy" for the LiveTV HLS streams; have you updated yours manually?

@ John Warburton:
Looks like you won't have to edit the main script manually!

Many cheers, iz!
Vangelis.
