To record rtmp:// flash video .flv stream from embedded Adobe Flash Player may use the following RTMP Flash stream rippers:

This is not true. Have you ever tried to download/capture/rip RTMP video streams with Real Player?

Besides you should take into account that Real Player saves recordings in its proprietory IVR format:

If you provide the URL, RTMP recording software tries all possible combinations to find the pageUrl, app and filename variables.

If I'm not mistaken swfUrl is only used for streams with SWF verification.

You may see these variables in the shareware Flash Stream Hunter (http://all-streaming-media.com/record-video-stream/Flash-Stream-Hunter-Web-stream-capture-software.htm). It doesn't allow you to copy them, but you may use software like shareware Kleptomania to copy such texts.

Flash Stream Hunter claims to be able to save rtmp streams
I tested Flash Stream Hunter (http://all-streaming-media.com/record-video-stream/Flash-Stream-Hunter-Web-stream-capture-software.htm) 1.0.3. It can capture packets coming to flash player through both HTTP and RTMP protocols. However I don't really like the web-design of its web-site, because it doesn't look trustworthy. Plus there are lots of spelling errors on the web-site, so I don't really expect any decent support.

The interface of the program is not ideal, but it is OK. At least I was able to capture RTMP streams with SWF Verification. Sometimes the recorded files were not playable.

And considering the price and functionality, I can only recommend Flash Stream Hunter if Jaksta (http://all-streaming-media.com/record-video-stream/Jaksta-Streaming-Media%20Recorder-and-Converter.htm) and Replay Media Catcher (http://all-streaming-media.com/record-video-stream/Replay-Media-Catcher-HTTP-RTMP-FLV-MP3-ripper-recorder.htm) doesn't work for you.

p.s. It has stopped working for me. I tried to un-install it and re-install. Tried to re-insall winpap and reboot to no avail. It doesn't show any errors, but it doesn't work for me anymore.

Flvware Flv Downloader 1.5 'Support HTTP and RTMP protocol'

Shareware Flvware Flv Downloader (http://all-streaming-media.com/record-video-stream/Flv-Downloader-Flash-audio-video-capture-software.htm) 1.53 (and its clone Rippersoft Flv Ripper) can capture packets from Flash Player. It supports both RTMP and HTTP protocols. And because it captures packets from Flash Player, it can save streams with SWF verification. I couldn't play some of the files recorded with Flv Downloader.

I still prefer Jaksta to Flv Downloader and other flash stream capture software.


searching cnet for 'rtmp' gives a few others
KeepTube 'Version 6.5 now supports RTMP/RTMPT.'
I wasn't able to record any RTMP streams with freeware KeepTube 6.5...

Tube Explorer 'even RTMP stream videos'
Shareware Tube Explorer 3.2 doesn't have any URL Sniffers, only built-on search engine for several web-sites. Plus it failed to download music video from Yahoo, the only web-site that uses RTMP from the list of supported web-sites.

BitAnalyzer 'get the links of http, rtsp, mms, and rtmp protocol.'
BitAnalyzer claims that it can find HTTP, RTSP and MMS links. Tried it with RTMP and it wasn't able to find anything. Plus it doesn't have any filters, so freeware URL Snooper is much better.



I also tried Moyea YouTube FLV Downloader. The developer claims that it supports RTMP, but it crashes on my computer. Plus there is a lot of negative feedback about this software.

unfortunately, it seems that software authors are adding the rtmp keyword just to trick people into downloading their programs.

I can confirm that GetFLV (http://all-streaming-media.com/record-video-stream/GetFLV-Download-and-convert-flash-video-streaming.htm) Pro will in fact capture RTMPE streams, from Hulu anyway as of December 2009. Lots of programs that previously worked, like Replay Media Catcher (http://all-streaming-media.com/record-video-stream/Replay-Media-Catcher-HTTP-RTMP-FLV-MP3-ripper-recorder.htm), stopped working when Hulu switched to RTMPE, or can capture only low-quality streams. You can always use screen capture utilities (http://all-streaming-media.com/record-video-from-screen/) of course, but I'm not a big fan since these will add another decode/recode process further degrading the image quality. They will work with just about anything though, including the Move Networks stuff that appears to have no other solution...

Its easy. First you instal the Real Media Player.
Real media player lets you download a video. It places "Download this video" at the right corner of any video feed.
It will download the video feed in .flv format. Many video play back softwares used for broadcast such as vertual cams can't see those. So the work around would be to change the extention of the .flv file to .avi. I my case it worked.
