Hi chaps,

First of all I love rtmpdump. It is an excellent tool.

I was using it to download clips from this site http://slavishow.com and it was working flawlessly until recent days. It started spitting out an error and i cannot figure it out why ...

Connecting ...
Caught signal: 2, cleaning up, just a second...
ERROR: RTMP_Connect0, failed to connect socket. 10061 (Unknown error)
DEBUG: Closing connection.


I'm using it as follows:
OS is win7

rtmpdump.exe -r "rtmp://video.slavishow.com" -y "slavishow/20121017.mp4" -s "http://www.slavishow.com/content/themes/slavishow/swf/flowplayer.rtmp-3.2.3.swf" -o d:\clip.mp4 -e -V

i was able to resolve my problem alone .. :D
it seems that developers on the site have changed the rtmp server and and the old one wasn't ...there at all :) . They haven't changed the server name on the web page though, something like redirecting was happening...idk... How did i found that ? Well i did "netstat -f" on my win 7 while watching a clip at the same time in my browser ..

cheers

Please post working command and/or netstat output

I am trying to download from this website as well but it's not working.

Example video: http://www.slavishow.com/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%BA%D1%82%D0%BE%D1%80-%D0%BA%D0%B0%D0%BB%D0%B5%D0%B2-%D0%B2-%D0%BE%D0%B1%D1%80%D0%B0%D0%B7%D0%B0-%D0%BD%D0%B0-%D1%81%D0%B8%D0%BB%D0%B2%D0%B8%D1%8F-%D0%BA%D0%B0%D1%86%D0%B0%D1%80%D0%BE/

My latest attempt:

rtmpdump -r rtmp://audio.slavishow.com/slavishow/20121023_KACAROVA.mp4 -W http://www.slavishow.com/content/themes/slavishow/swf/flowplayer.cluster-3.2.8.swf -p http://www.slavishow.com/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%BA%D1%82%D0%BE%D1%80-%D0%BA%D0%B0%D0%BB%D0%B5%D0%B2-%D0%B2-%D0%BE%D0%B1%D1%80%D0%B0%D0%B7%D0%B0-%D0%BD%D0%B0-%D1%81%D0%B8%D0%BB%D0%B2%D0%B8%D1%8F-%D0%BA%D0%B0%D1%86%D0%B0%D1%80%D0%BE/ -y slavishow/20121023_KACAROVA.mp4 -f "WIN 11,4,31,204" -t rtmp://audio.slavishow.com -o k:/test.mp4

Download may be incomplete (downloaded about 0.70%), try resuming

It always fails after a few seconds. By constantly resuming I get decent audio in the end but no video. Any ideas?

[placebo]

audio.slavishow.com server accepts only small buffer times like 2000 ms, use option -b:
rtmpdump -r rtmp://audio.slavishow.com -y slavishow/20121023_KACAROVA.mp4 -b 2000 -o 20121023_KACAROVA.flv

Thanks, it downloads fine now, but the resulting video is a white blur, actually the same result as when I repeatedly resumed. Is it the same for you?

[Ivaila]

Still haven't been able to figure this out. :( Anyone know what could cause the audio to be fine but video to be a grey mess?
