You can use the following command to watch an RTMP stream with VLC player
rtmpdump.exe -r rtmp://188.165.205.104/technosmart/techno10! --quiet | "C:\Program Files\VideoLAN\VLC\vlc.exe" -

Try to use RTMPexplorer (http://all-streaming-media.com/record-video-stream/RTMPExplorer-freeware-GUI-for-rtmpsrv-Windows.htm) to find the parameters. Then replace
-o "filename"
with
--quiet | "C:\Program Files\VideoLAN\VLC\vlc.exe" -
or
--quiet | "C:\Program Files (x86)\VideoLAN\VLC\vlc.exe" -
vlc.exe can reside in some other folder depending on where you install it.
But does rtmpdump work with KMPlayer or other video player, if I change the folder in batch command?
This will work with any player which supports reading from stdin.

rtmp://npsaflivefs.fplive.net/npsaflive-live//stream50
rtmpdump -r "rtmp://npsaflivefs.fplive.net:1935/npsaflive-live/" --playpath "stream50" -W "http://media-player.cdn.level3.net/flash/v1_1_1/Level3MediaPlayer.swf" -p "http://www.windowsintowonderland.org/live/live3.htm" --quiet | "C:\Program Files\VideoLAN\VLC\vlc.exe" -
First test your command with RTMPdump (http://all-streaming-media.com/record-video-stream/rtmpdump-freeware-console-RTMP-downloading-application.htm). if it starts downloading successfully then you can redirect the output to vlc.
correct command line:
rtmpdump -r "rtmp://npsaflivefs.fplive.net:1935/npsaflive-live/" -a "npsaflive-live/" -f "WIN 10,3,181,14" -W "http://media-player.cdn.level3.net/flash/v1_1_1/Level3MediaPlayer.swf" -p "http://www.windowsintowonderland.org/live/live3.htm" --live -y "stream50" | "C:\Program Files\VideoLAN\VLC\vlc.exe" -

Thanks KSV. The stream must not be compatible with VLC as I'm not seeing any output on the player.

First check the live stream at their website. you will see in vlc what you can see on their website. i can watch the live stream without any problem. probably you checked at the time when it was dark at the camera's location.

Thanks. I am able to see the stream in a browser window okay. But I don't think the problem was due to it being dark at the time because the VLC 'cone' logo is the only thing that shows up in the player. On the cmd.exe window, the "1968.960 kB / 63.76 sec" is incrementing, so it does look like it's doing something. But beyond that 'cone' in the VLC window, nothing shows up at all.

Ive found this quite common with some live streams with VLC they take quite a lot of time load/buffer/play. But i see from you screenshot you also have SMPlayer which is a frontend GUI of Mplayer so pipe it out to mplayer.
rtmpdump -r "rtmp://npsaflivefs.fplive.net:1935/npsaflive-live/" -a "npsaflive-live/" -f "WIN 10,3,181,14" -W "http://media-player.cdn.level3.net/flash/v1_1_1/Level3MediaPlayer.swf" -p "http://www.windowsintowonderland.org/live/live3.htm" --live -y "stream50" | C:\Program Files\SMPlayer\MPlayer\mplayer.exe -cache 8192 -
Sorry if thats the wrong location for SMPlayer.

thanks, i certainly have tried other programs too! are you sure about the -cache?
smplayer seems to be choking on that (and doesn't work with it removed either)

On Realitatea's website, there are two live streams: hxxp://webtv.realitatea.net/live meant for internal viewers (not geolocation-blocked, but higher bitrate) the other hxxp://webtv.realitatea.net/live?international=1 designed for viewers abroad (lower bitrate). So far, I have not figured a method to find out the protocol used for the second stream - eveything the sniffers pick up is the hxxp://webtv.realitatea.net/themes/realitatea/swf/player.php?hash=d0070db5dcd4e9fd9a8658a57fea6853&m asterUrl=http://rtv1.dvstreaming.ro player's url, but not the stream source. I wonder if there's a method through which this input can be found, so I could use it along with rtmpdump (http://all-streaming-media.com/record-video-stream/rtmpdump-freeware-console-RTMP-downloading-application.htm)+VLC?
Thanks.
