Hello everyone, i just joined this forum to request your expert help on a rtmpdump issue.

I'm trying to download the video that appears on this page:

http://www.ert.gr/webtv/net/item/12203-Kritwn-o-Akrobaths-07-04-2013#.UYncBMqBWSr

And I'm using the following command line

rtmpdump -W "http://www.ert.gr/webtv/multi-player/AkamaiFlashPlayer.swf" -r "rtmp://cp90990.edgefcs.net/ondemand/worldwide/2013/net/es-aurion-ta-spoudaia/20130407-eis-aurion-ta-spoudaia.f4v" -o filename.f4v

But i received the error:

Connecting ...
INFO: Connected...
ERROR: Closing connection: NetStream.Play.StreamNotFound

I understand this means the .f4v file is not found, but that link is correct.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks a lot

Dean

Thanks for your reply, I copied your code and still get the same error. How is this possible?

I downloaded RTMPDump v2.4 GIT-2012-12-30 (Compiled by KSV), which was the only difference between your code and mine. Guess what? It worked.

When an unofficial release does the job and the official doesn't, things are messy.

Many many thanks for your expertise and time you spent on my problem.
