Here is a new rtmpdump helper tool on the block for Windows users. it can prove more useful than RtmpExplorer (incredible tool but abandonware). Thanx to Nir Sofer for creating many useful utilities.

Description:

RTMPDumpHelper is a small utility that can help you to easily download RTMP video/audio streams. By combining this utility and the proxy server of RTMPDump toolkit, you can simply open a Web page containing RTMP video stream in your favorite Web browser, and while watching the video, it'll be saved to your disk automatically as .flv or .mp4 file.

not working with RTMPE STREAMS:(
http://zonytvcom.info/starsp.htm

[tank900]

awesome program thank you!

[ngalf]

I have been using this the last few days. It's a good, simple program that grabs a lot of streams. It works a lot like a free RMC that captures many more streams than RMC does these days.

One problem is that it shuts off if you leave a stream. Is there a way to prevent that or restart a stream?

It would be great if you had the control that RMC has over recording streams-- have this program running but the ability to stop it from grabbing every stream it encounters. Have the ability to stop one stream but keep recording another.

With those features this would be the best tool out there...

[evol]

What i do is just run & stop RTMPDumpHelper as soon as it grabs all the information then add it manually either for download or live using vlc. :)

[fatwaxpat]

After I close the stream and open the file in VLC the file doesn't play quite right, the file length is way longer than the actual record time was and if I try to move forward in the recording it just stops playing. Anyone know any fixes to this?

[david_kh91]

thanks u KSV but its not working with chrome only with firefox :( if u can fix it please :o

It probably doesnt work because that site is using port 1934, instead of 1935. My script will work however.

$ rtmp-host.sh

Restart video then press enter here.

many Thanks for the update 1,15

[Scream55]

I have everything but when I play an RTMP stream, nothing loads. black window stays empty on both rtmpsuck and rtmpsrv .. help?

[AmazingMatze]

RTMPSuck/RTMPSrv listens to TCP port 1935 by default. You can add listening ports in RTMPDumpHelper.
What's the pageUrl?

[Scream55]

How do you do that?

[minipc]

if you are using rtmpdumphelper with chrome, it's worth noting that you need to disable chrome's built-in pepper flash player plugin (pepflashplayer.dll), and enable the adobe supplied version (currently NPSWF32_11_6_602_168.dll). and because chrome has a habit of silently re-enabling the built-in version, you should always check that it is not enabled before attempting to capture any streams. see chrome://plugins

[mynameis]

Simply beautiful.

Thank you for sharing!

What about Firefox?

[minipc]

firefox uses the adobe supplied flash player plugin. so rtmpdumphelper works out-of-the-box with it. no need to worry about disabling pepper flash, which is chrome specific.

[jjm789]

Hi

This program is working well for my needs. But there is one flaw that I think needs serious consideration. This may or may not concern the author of RTMPhelper. But it really has everything to do with the rtmpsrv.exe.

It captures chat live streams very well. But apparently, for whatever reason, a stream might drop at times, and then the program attempts to "resume" the stream. In this case, the movie is completely destroyed. I witnessed this first hand while previewing a flv file that was being downloaded. While I was watching it, rtmpsrv.exe dropped the stream, attempted to resume, and then the file I was watching suddenly froze. I restarted the flv and lo and behold, it started from the point of resume. So, the first part of the video was wiped out.

With that said. RTMPSRV is cutting out earlier parts of videos, and/or making them unplayable all together "cannot render the file". There should be a way to get the RTMPSRV to ALWAYS created a newly named file when resuming so that no flv file will get written over. This may already be possible. But the RTMPDumpHelper certainly isn't supplying the options.

use please rtmpexplorer + rtmpsuck

[VanZan]

Right I don't want to get into trouble as I've already made a post in another sub forum. However this was recommended to me. I'm trying to download an episode of The Big Match Revisited (https://www.itv.com/itvplayer/the-big-match-revisited/series-2/episode-20-fa-cup-final-1979-arsenal-vs-manchester-united) from ITV Player. I wait until the promo starts then before the main programme begins I start up rtmpsrv. Nothing happens at all however. I would really appreciate some help as I've been at it a few hours now.

[chanc]

use please rtmpexplorer + rtmpsuck

My computer is using winxp sp2, and rtmpexplorer asks for an xp+sp3.
So for the moment, rtmpdumphelper is my only choice.

and thanks for the great tool :D

[CLran619]

Maybe the wrong place to ask but u guys simply know this stuff hands down..... Ive been downloading "ondemand" streams from adultswim for a few months..... I've done this well with xbmc with the free cable addon as my scraper.up until yesterday at least. Now I can only get partial downloads before I get errors. I'm using rtmprtmpdumphelper on a windows 7 machine. Anyone got anything to say to help me. Thanks alot

put link video(example)

[thefallenghost]

Does anyone know how I can pipe the output of rtmpsrv or rtmpsuck to a text file using rtmpdump helper?

[leolazer]

I am using Rtmpsrv in the settings.
Small videos (<100mb) are easily downloaded. But for large videos (more than approx 1 hr) the %age gets stuck after some time. The download needs to be then manually cut off. The video plays fine till the time that the %age froze, but there is no video after that.

Can someone please help me how to overcome this?

[ragex]

Anyone else got the problem with handshake error? Seems like rtmpdumphelper is blocking AMF requests on some sites. On 1 site I tested (Adult) the video won't start if I Rtmpdumphelper running.
In the rtmpsrv log it just repeat "Handshake Failed".

Also, is it possible to get Rtmpdumphelper to sniff/record streams from replaymediacatcher? I got a hard stream that can't be recorded with Rtmpdumphelper. It can be downloaded with RMC4 but the endsize is 0kb.

[Manual]

Does anyone know if it's possible to copy rtmpe link generated by rtmpdump when using it along with rtmpdumphelper? I'm unable to copy from console. :confused:

[biezom]

hi normally you have a file "command.txt" in your rtmpdumpherper's folder you can open with notepad. normally the history is record here

[Manual]

Thanks. :D

[Luminal]

Has anyone had any issues with RTMPDumpHelper while using chrome? Sometimes when loading Helper, it crashes chrome. Another issue is when opening a new tab/page, I sometimes have to open it several times before the pages load

[Manual]

I was always wondering what's the difference when using a simple "rtmpdump -r link -o file" command and when specifying "-a -w -f -p -y". Does anyone know if there actually is a difference?

[nash28]

I was always wondering what's the difference when using a simple "rtmpdump -r link -o file" command and when specifying "-a -w -f -p -y". Does anyone know if there actually is a difference?

The difference illustrates the level of security..unsecured files which are directly placed on the stream server can be downloaded with the simplest rtmpdump command. But that´s only the case with streams that are basically free to view or to download. Paid streams are mostly secured in different ways so you have to add special commands to get the destination of the source stream and to download it.

[tinybilbo]

Does this tool still work?
I find that it attaches itself to my browser (firefox), but never starts a download when I play the video...
Do I need to update RTMPsuck, and if so which version?
(I have tried many...)
Thanks

[liberatino]

I used to be able to download multiple streams at once, and they would download as .flv files. My computer crashed a few weeks ago, and when I downloaded the program again, I can no longer download more than one stream at a time (Other window wont even load the flashplayer) and all files download without an extension.

Advice?

rtmpdumphelper still works with chrome, at least, as long as it is configured to use the npapi flash plugin, instead of the built in ppapi pepperflash plugin, which never worked.

if you recently updated chrome, you may need to enable npapi support, as google are in the process of obsoleting support for it. see chrome://flags/#enable-npapi

i haven't tested it with firefox recently, although as firefox uses the npapi flash plugin, the chances are, it does.

however... in the last few days an issue with rtmpsuck has arisen, whereby it continuously drops the connection. this seems to be a systemic problem with rtmpdump, as both my personal build and ksv's patched build are equally affected.

so, for the moment i have reverted to using replay media catcher, instead of rtmpdumphelper+rtmpsuck.

fyi, ksv's recently released patched build is a good choice, if you're looking for rtmpdump for windows

[minipc]

I used to be able to download multiple streams at once, and they would download as .flv files. My computer crashed a few weeks ago, and when I downloaded the program again, I can no longer download more than one stream at a time (Other window wont even load the flashplayer) and all files download without an extension.

Advice?

this sounds more like an issue with the version of rtmpdump you are using with rtmpdumphelper.

vanilla rtmpdump builds don't always save streams with extensions, depending on the stream parameters, and can overwrite existing downloads under certain circumstances. ksv's patched build ensures streams are saved with extensions, as well as time-stamping filenames, so that downloads are less likely to be overwritten.

although i have recently been having problems using rtmpdumphelper+rtmpsuck, being limited to a single download stream is not one of them.

[tapitytaper]

I'm currently using rtmpdump 2.4 and rtmpdumphelper on windows

everything was working fine up until two days ago
now for all the sites I try to download from, the streams are so unstable. They keep going in and out so this results in like A LOT of 2-3 minute long files instead of just one long file. Please someone help. I'm not tech savvy :(

I've just been using this http://www.nirsoft.net/utils/rtmp_dump_helper.html for instruction thus far.

Sounds like they switched to another protocol [HLS, HDS, ...]. Could you post a link so that we can verify it?

oh geez. so this is kind of embarrassing but I've been using it on adult websites

the thing is...I go on two different websites (cam4 and chaturbate) and they both have the same issue. It would be weird if they both switched to another protocol at the same time

I go on two different websites (cam4 and chaturbate) and they both have the same issue.

Livestreamer (http://stream-recorder.com/forum/livestreamer-t19466.html) supports Chaturbate. So maybe you can use this application instead of RTMPDump.

Here is an example how it works:

http://stream-recorder.com/forum/livestreamer-and-record-chaturbate-cams-t19338.html

[nullacht]

Just tested: I'm also able to download the videos with rtmpsuck [RTMPDumpHelper].

[nullacht]

Cam4.com: Seems that they broadcast the videos frame by frame [every frame is a single picture]. Your assumption is correct: The RTMPDumpHelper application does not work with this website.

going to try this out over the weekend...its so complicated in comparison to rtmpdumphelper though where all i had to do was open the stream...it even let me do multiple streams

I've thinking of reformatting my entire laptop to see if fixes things bc I loved rtmpdumphelper that much

fyi, i can confirm that at least one more chat streaming site is similarly affected.

i don't know about cam4, but for the last several days both chaturbate and myfreecams have both begun to generate frequent stream processing errors with rtmpsuck, which effectively limits the length of stream that can be captured to a very short interval.

i can't comment on the "protocol switching" suggestion, as a cause, but i'd be surprised if a harddisk reformat/os reinstallation fixed the problem.

it is more likely that the streaming broadcasting platform that may be employed by the various sites affected has introduced something new that adobe flash can handle, but which trips up the rtmpdump library, that requires a fix.

[nullacht]

[...] i don't know about cam4 [...]

As far as I can see Cam4.com does not use the Real Time Messaging Protocol, so the RTMPDumpHelper application would be useless in this case.

Chaturbate.com uses two different protocols. If the Real Time Messaging Protocol does not work for you properly, you can switch to HLS. Just use the Livestreamer application to download these videos.

Recording multiple streams should be no problem, if your broadband connection is fast enough. Just open the Livestreamer application several times.

ok...at least now I know its not just me with these issues
guess this saves me the trouble of reformatting my entire laptop to see if that fixes the issue :/

is KSV the person who made rtmpdumphelper?

[nullacht]

ok...at least now I know its not just me with these issues

As I have stated before: I'm able to download these videos with rtmpsuck. For testing purposes, I have just recorded a 20 minutes long video.

Both applications do work properly!

I think you have misunderstood something. The RTMPDumpHelper is not the problem. This application only redirects the connection.

[tapitytaper]

so this is a pretty stupid question but if I wanted to learn more about this stuff...should I be learning some sort of language? i.e if I wanted to learn how to save streams by myself and write programs that would help me save streams and whatnot

As I have stated before: I'm able to download these videos with rtmpsuck. For testing purposes, I have just recorded a 20 minutes long video.


What are you using rtmpsuck in conjunction with?


Recording multiple streams should be no problem, if your broadband connection is fast enough. Just open the Livestreamer application several times.

so in my case for windows, I would just be opening multiple command prompts, right?

I also cant find the configuration file. I assume the configuration file is where I can choose a folder to where the streams are saved? If it would be possible to not have to type out livestreamer "URL" best -o filename.flv each time that would be great too.

which would seem to suggest that the problem is not related to the use of rtmpdumphelper, but with the use of chrome and/or the 17.0.0.169 version of the adobe flash plugin. this may therefore not be the most appropriate thread to discuss the issue.

you don't specify the version of firefox you are using, nor say how long the connection lasted, but my test today, using firefox 38.0.1 and flash 17.0.0.188 seems to suggest that the problem of premature disconnection persists.

RTMPDumpHelper with customized RTMPDump works perfectly with CB, there was no changes in last weeks, see my old posts in RTMPDump thread for info

which customization; yours or k-s-v's? and which browser does it work with; chrome, firefox or both? and what versions? and what exactly is your customization? it's not clear from your posts. the code snippet you include looks identical to the latest 2.4 rtmpsuck.c source.

Firefox: v37.0.2
RTMPDumpHelper: v1.21

[minipc]

For testing purposes, I have just recorded another video. Looks like everything works as expected:

...

Firefox: v37.0.2
RTMPDumpHelper: v1.21

could you confirm that you get the same result when using both firefox's regular and private browsing modes?

my own findings are that v38.0.1 works in regular mode but prematurely drops rtmp stream connections when browsing in private. and with chrome v43.0.2357.65m, the problem continues to persist in both regular and incognito modes. i'm not sure why using privacy mode would make any difference in firefox? it doesn't seem to make any difference with chrome.

i'm using rtmpdumphelper v1.21, npapi flash v17.0.0.188 on 32bit windows 7 pro. i've tried vanilla rtmpsuck 2.4 (rtmpdump-2.4-git-010913-windows), ksv's latest patched build and my own static build. all show identical behaviour.

...and does it still work 'by default' when firefox is in private browsing mode? (i don't mean when the broadcaster switches to paid for chat - rtmpsuck will always be interrupted, when that happens, even if you elect to follow them into paid for chat)

[nullacht]

[...] ...and does it still work 'by default' when firefox is in private browsing mode? [...]

Logically it should work, because rtmpsuck acts as a transparent proxy between server and client.

rtmpsuck is a transparent proxy; it intercepts connections from a client and then makes an outbound connection to the real server. After all handshaking is complete and encryption keys with both sides are negotiated, it records the cleartext stream data into files while relaying the data from the server to the client.

I have tested it and it definitely works.

[minipc]

I have tested it and it definitely works.

my bad: did another round of testing, just now, and you're right, it doesn't seem to make any difference whether the browser is in regular or private browsing mode; at least for me, rtmpsuck continues to disconnect from the streams prematurely, severely limiting the duration of caps achievable.

with myfreecams, the feeds just freeze, until you cycle the flash player on and off. whereas with chaturbate, the flash player attempts to reconnect, after, interestingly, displaying the "free registration required" nag message.

i think this is just a difference between the way the sites are coded. chaturbate uses the flash player (if available) to stream the chat, as well as the video, and will automatically try to reconnect if the flash feed is ever disconnected.

myfreecams chat is via xhr, and there is no automatic attempt to reconnect the flash video stream, if it is disconnected, for whatever reason.

rtmpsuck debug output seems to indicate that the problem is caused by the server broadcasting disconnect actions that the transparent proxy complies with. i'm not sure whether they are being sent because of the presence of the proxy, or whether they are always present and the flash player just ignores them? if it's the latter, then the solution might be to modify rtmpsuck so that it too ignores the disconnect signals?

[sorcererapp]

I am using RTMPDumpHelper for a while, it works great.
However, the website I am using on is changing to wowza with rtmps:// protocol plus disallow port 1935, the RTMPSuck is no longer detecting its activities, I have tried to add another port in the preference, it does not work. What tweak is necessary to make it work?

not sure what specific "workaround" lto is referring to, but if you simply refresh/reload the page when a broadcaster switches broadcasting mode (to or from private, group, or whatever), the chances of rtmpdumphelper/rtmpsuck crashing or stalling are greatly reduced. if your javascript skills are up to it, it might be an idea to automate the page refresh action by creating a targeted browser add-on/extension.

If I remembered correctly, he added a line of code and recompiled it but I tried it and I still get crashes.
http://stream-recorder.com/forum/showpost.php?p=66661&postcount=203

As for the js note, how would you determine when the broadcaster goes private/log off?

I've known about the refreshing page (I actually just close the window) but it is kind of an issue when using it on multiple streams. There's like 5-7 second window between the stream closing and rtmp crashing so it a bit hard when multitasking and not actually watching the stream

certainly, manually monitoring a broadcast for state changes is impractical. that's why it's better to automate the process.

unfortunately, there is no universal solution. each site has a different way of flagging state changes. sometimes there will be a function that gets called to update a page with state changes, that can be subclassed in order to effect a reload. other times state changes are signalled through a messaging system that can be monitored. it just depends on the site.

i realize that such generalizations are not very helpful. but if i get too specific, potential targets will know how to frustrate the efforts of private add-on writers.

Ok I need help.

I have my own stream and I want to get rid of the embed code that sawlive.tv provides (I hate it and want the direct link). I've used the RTMPdump helper and this is my output

rtmpdump -r "rtmp://204.45.157.98/flash" -a "flash" -f "WIN 17,0,0,134" -W "http://static2.sawlive.tv/player.swf" -p "http://sawlive.tv/v/bigbrothercanada" -y "18672?MTQzNDAxMjE5Nzs5ZmVmMmQ5ZDUyMTk2YWYzMTg4OTdm M2Q0MzU2ZDIyYw==" -o "18672.flv"

As you can see there is no longer the code that looks like:

http://sawlive.tv/embed/watch/...

Just to clarify, I want to be able to find it myself instead of have someone find it for me. I would like to learn.

Anyone know how I can find it?

[Luminal]

Can anyone offer any hints on trying to debug/run rtmpsuck on visual studios? Or if you use other IDEs

[a_salty_dogg]

This program seemed like a godsend but I'm being driven crazy by constant "rtmpsuck.exe has encountered a problem and needs to close." crashes. They may occur within 2 minutes or 2 hours, seemingly totally randomly.
Can someone PLEASE guide me to a fix?
Running on XP, tried using it with Firefox, Opera (Classic), Opera Portable (new Opera) Chromium Portable, Midori; same result with all browsers, though Chromium and Opera crashes MAY be less frequent.
Please ask if you need more information or for me to enclose one of the crash logs.
(Afraid rtmpsrv is not a useable option as it doesn't record streams in steady time.)
Many thanks in advance.

Thank you for your reply. I upgraded to 43.0.1 and still have the same problem. I am on Windows 7 64-bit. I read somewhere that Firefox will now detect the OS and auto-select 32 or 64 bit. Maybe that's why rtmpdumphelper won't attach. Is there a 64-bit version of rtmpdumphelper?

you can use browser tools / console or ABP AddOn and check all blocked elements there you can find the single segments and the master link of the video.So I can't check the video again for you so my UK proxy dosen't work today. :( I really hate this geo blockings!

Here is a new rtmpdump helper tool on the block for Windows users. it can prove more useful than RtmpExplorer (incredible tool but abandonware). Thanx to Nir Sofer for creating many useful utilities.

Description:

RTMPDumpHelper is a small utility that can help you to easily download RTMP video/audio streams. By combining this utility and the proxy server of RTMPDump toolkit, you can simply open a Web page containing RTMP video stream in your favorite Web browser, and while watching the video, it'll be saved to your disk automatically as .flv or .mp4 file.

the instructions for using the helper tool given on the page you refer to are pretty comprehensive and clear. however, what the page neglects to mention is that since the last version update of the helper tool, which was some considerable time ago, now, the chrome browser has dropped support for npapi plugins, which the helper tool relied on to work. so the helper tool is only useful for capturing flash videos viewed in browsers which still support npapi plugins, which is really only firefox, at least for the moment. if you have tried using the helper tool with chrome and it hasn't worked, try using it with firefox and you may meet with more success.

Do you know if the Edge browser support these npapi plug ins?

Also, do you know if this will work to record free chat as well as any private chat sessions I pay for on LiveJasmin?

Another answer in addition to minipc's excellent information, future proof:

LINUX and RTMPSRV.

[j_cool]

Last few posts were about situations where rtmpdumphelper does not work.

This post is about where it still does work.

It works with opera portable

http://www.opera-usb.com/operausben.htm

By default rtmpdumphelper sees main browser only and portable browsers have to be set up.

Option menu - add support for web browser - select.

It can be seen in RTMPDumpHelper.cfg if browser is set up, line:

WebBrowsersListManual=


I tried google chrome portable for my curiosity, could set it up, but rtmpsuck stayed idle.

[j_cool]

Do you know if the Edge browser support these npapi plug ins?

Also, do you know if this will work to record free chat as well as any private chat sessions I pay for on LiveJasmin?

And here is what it does.

It does not save your pornography per se.

RTMPDUMP does.

http://stream-recorder.com/forum/showpost.php?p=28572&postcount=18l

RTMPDUMPHELPER sets up RTMPSUCK in windows which in turn runs RTMPDUMP.

This is the easiest way to run RTPMDUMP known to me.

[j_cool]

I deleted rtmpdump, and rtmpsuck saved my PEEP-SHOW, per se:

Guys, I detect the stream with RTMPDumpHelper but I don't know how to copy the path to it since it's a console and there is no select/copy. Where does the info about the detection gets stored?

[j_cool]

Info about detection is in Command.txt, rtmpdump parameters.

You can copy the path from console, it is about how-to with console.

Right click title bar, edit, mark.

select with the mouse, text will be highlighted.

while text is highlighted right click title bar, edit, copy.

Before closing the console open some text file and paste.

This is what I did in post before yours.

That are librtmp parameters from console ( if helper runs rtmpsuck ), not enough to use with rtmpdump on many sites.

To use rtmpdump parameters to work well with rtmpdump is another story, not easy.

[j_cool]

To take this to advanced level maybe somebody can answer this ( no need to go in detail )

Why I never find -T parameter in command.txt ? Is this up to rtmpdumphelper developer, or up to rtmpsuck or rtmpsrv ?

Both, but they were never intended to find secure token, why?

That's not so simple and it takes quite a lot of time to write the code (regex) for some (if not most of them individually) swf urls, not to mention that they need to decompile them first.

That's the simplest answer I guess. :)

[j_cool]

Helper never drops -T in command.txt.

I thought Nir Sofer was scared of getting sued.

I also read of Adobe taking whoever it was to court about rtmpdump,
and have to live with rtmpdump today however they don't like it.

There was peep-show before there was -T, so -T is not a big deal, it is just a challenge for me to chase it.

I am glad you said something from IT point of view about -T with helper.

If rtmpsrv does not show -T in linux, it is not Nir Sofer.

It was maybe early to ask this before looking at linux and rtmpsrv.

Now back to something I posted a few days ago.

I deleted rtmpdump and rtmpsrv, so helper runs with rtmpsuck only ( rtmpdump and rtmpsrv none existing )
I find rtmpdump parameters in command.txt, console shows librtmp parameters, stream saved.

Those rtmpdump parameters from command.txt do not work with livejasmin out of the box, far from it.
I worked them a few times over to get my peep-show working out of web browser.

Johnny.

[j_cool]

If RtmpdumpHelper cannot get the stream on default port 1935 this is how to try all existing ports:

Hi guys,

any help with this one?

Nothing to do with RTMPDumpHelper.

[OntintheGod]

RTMPDumpHelper work on windows 10 ?

[j_cool]

I think that it depends on browser. I have more luck with older browsers.

Most recently I observed that when I use new browser on cams.com I don't find rtmp stream anywhere,
including wireshark. With wireshark I see all traffic comming in and out of my PC.

When I use an old browser on the same site I find rtmp stream.

My conclusion is that according to what browser I use one type of stream or another is sent to my PC.

I doubt that it has to do anything with version of windows you use.

The latest version of rtmpdump is here: https://github.com/K-S-V/Scripts/releases Chrome 44.0.2403.157 is the latest version that supports NPAPI. You need to enable: chrome://flags/#enable-npapi ,install Adobe Flash Player (NPAPI) and run it in: chrome://plugins/ Proposes to use the Portable version, which can be installed next to the current version of Chrome: https://sourceforge.net/projects/portableapps/files/Google%20Chrome%20Portable/ Later, use F8 to add in the application, support new browser.

Can this be done with Firefox too? I did windows update yesterday and firefox updated too and now rtmpdump helper doesnt work with firefox anymore. Everything was normal yesterday before the update.

[j_cool]

Can this be done with Firefox too?

Latest Firefox version 32 bit that works well with Helper 32 bit is 51.

[Luminal]

Latest Firefox version 32 bit that works well with Helper 32 bit is 51.

I reverted back to Firefox 55 64bit and seems to be working fine now thanks.

[Damianonymous]

For a moment, NPAPI support should be available in the latest version of Firefox ESR:

You can use the Portable version:

Sorry to bump an old thread but rtmpdumphelper hasn't worked on Stream Mate in a while and I would like to know if there is a fix for this.

[Damianonymous]

"Version 1.22:
RTMPDumpHelper now temporary disables the DLL protection mechanism of Firefox in order to load RTMPDumpHelper.dll into Firefox. (Also, be aware that Firefox is now installed as 64-bit Web browser by default, so you have to use the 64-bit version of RTMPDumpHelper if you have 64-bit system.)"

Have you checked Firefox? I looked at Internet Explorer and I think it's okay.

RTMPSRV and RTMPSUCK are for linux, no graphical user interface.

Thanks for this.
Would you happen to know the command for macOS? i got rtmpsuck and rtmpsrv installed but the below command used to work before apparently but no longer works in newer macOS (dating back few years) since their changed iptables for something else which i can't remember.

iptables -t nat -A OUTPUT -p tcp --dport 1935 -m owner \! --uid-owner root -j REDIRECT

[j_cool]

I never used mac.
I saw only peope using it at work. namely BBC.
