hi all , im seriously getting nuts with this live stream (on a linux box)

rtmpe://alex-stream.rosebud-media.de/lblive/alexlivestream_2.mp4

player location:
http://alex-berlin.de/swf/alexplayer002.swf

i used the oldschool method getting hash
2bbcf070f267594db43c780fc216c18dbdf50b0b33299b4f04 40c71837163521

swf size
220920

and issued this command and a couple of variations but im not getting further

./rtmpdump -r rtmpe://alex-stream.rosebud-media.de/lblive/ -y alexlivestream_2 -w 2bbcf070f267594db43c780fc216c18dbdf50b0b33299b4f04 40c71837163521 -s http://alex-berlin.de/swf/alexplayer002.swf -x 220920 -a video -o test2.flv


./rtmpdump --swfhash "2bbcf070f267594db43c780fc216c18dbdf50b0b33299b4f04 40c71837163521" --swfsize 220920 -r "rtmpt://alex-stream.rosebud-media.de/lblive/alexlivestream_2.mp4" --live -o test.mp4


RESULT ALLWAYS

You are missing two things. first is rtmp redirection. either use the redirected url (use -V | --verbose switch) or compile rtmpdump with my patches and it will be handled automatically. secondly it uses SecureToken. decompile the player swf to get SecureToken.
