Hello. I'm trying to play this stream on my computer using VLC:

http://www.almajdtv.tv/code_live.html

Here is what I have for the rtmpdump command:

rtmpdump -r "rtmp://majdg.pwlstation.com/live/majdgen/2_livestream.flv" -a "live/majdgen/2_livestream.flv" -s "http://31.207.1.58/jwplayer/player.swf " -p "http://www.almajdtv.tv/code_live.html" -t "rtmp://majdg.pwlstation.com/live/majdgen/2_livestream.flv" -y "2_livestream.flv" | "C:\Program Files (x86)\VideoLAN\VLC\vlc.exe" -


Verbose output from rtmpdump:

C:\RTMPDUMP>rtmpdump -r "rtmp://majdg.pwlstation.com/live/majdgen/2_livestream.f
lv" -a "live/majdgen/2_livestream.flv" -s "http://31.207.1.58/jwplayer/player.sw
f " -p "http://www.almajdtv.tv/code_live.html" -t "rtmp://majdg.pwlstation.com/l
ive/majdgen/2_livestream.flv" -y "2_livestream.flv" -V | "C:\Program Files (x86
)\VideoLAN\VLC\vlc.exe" -

I tried using rtmpexplorer, same deal. And for some reason the stream is not playing inside the RTMPExplorer gui. I tried both this (http://pwlstation.com/?p=59) and this (http://www.almajdtv.tv/code_live.html) link.

Hi
It's a live stream, so it needs -v adding to the RTMPDump command.
Test it like this:-
rtmpdump -r "rtmp://majdg.pwlstation.com/live/majdgen/" -a "live/majdgen/" -f "WIN 11,1,102,62" -W "http://pwlstation.com/wp-content/uploads/jw-player-plugin-for-wordpress/player/player.swf" -p"http://pwlstation.com/?p=59" -y "2_livestream" -v -o 2_livestream.flv

Then if that downloads OK, pipe it to VLC like you did before.

Worked perfectly! Thank you!
