I've just tried this version (master.zip (https://github.com/sstativa/capturebate-node/archive/master.zip)) with node.js 8.8.1 and it worked flawlessly straight away:
1) Download,
2) Unpack,
3) Set login and password
4) npm install
5) Run...

So, I'll say something wrong at your side. Have you tried to reinstall node.js?

Last version of Capturbate-Node (https://github.com/sstativa/capturebate-node/releases) that works for me, (Windows 10 using Node.js 8.4), is 0.2.4 from November 2016.

Had to make the change I noted here (http://stream-recorder.com/forum/showpost.php?p=92998&postcount=182) to accommodate a Chaturbate site change so it would log in ok.

All the later versions fail to find any models online even though they are.

Currently also running ChaturbateRecorder (https://github.com/beaston02/ChaturbateRecorder) on a RasPi 2 and it works well.

I've just tried this version (master.zip (https://github.com/sstativa/capturebate-node/archive/master.zip)) with node.js 8.8.1 and it worked flawlessly straight away:

Just installed Node.js 8.8.1, grabbed the latest Capturebate-Node, and now it seems to be working.

Got no idea why unless it needed something in the latest Node.js but I spent an hour looking at the Javascript trying to work out why it wasn't seeing models online when v0.2.4 did ... and nothing had really changed in that section of the script.

BTW, for ease of use I start both scripts using PowerShell via a shortcut:

# CB-Node.ps1
$console = $host.UI.RawUI
$console.BackgroundColor = 'Black'
$console.WindowTitle = 'Capturebate-Node'
$size = $console.WindowSize
$size.Width = 80
$size.Height = 20
$console.WindowSize = $size
Clear-Host

Function Rerun {
$temp = "Script restarted at: " + (Get-Date -UFormat "%Y%m%d, %H:%M:%S")
$temp | Out-File -FilePath ".\debug.txt" -Append
Start-Process -FilePath node.exe -ArgumentList "main.js" -WorkingDirectory X:\Capturebate-Node -Wait -NoNewWindow -PassThru
}

Start-Process -FilePath node.exe -ArgumentList "convert.js" -WorkingDirectory X:\Capturebate-Node -NoNewWindow -PassThru

While ($true) {
Rerun
}


I found that the Capturebate-Node script sometimes closed for no reason, (I suspect a problem fetching the web page), so I created the PowerShell script to start main.js, wait until it closed, then restart it, writing an entry to a log file.

It also starts the convert.js script, so all output is to the one window:

Handles NPM(K) PM(K) WS(K) CPU(s) Id SI ProcessName

Shortcut properties:
%SystemRoot%\system32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\power shell.exe -noprofile -executionpolicy bypass -File "CB-Node.ps1"

I use the same kind of PoSh script for MFC-Node, (which drops out even more).

Hi, sorry but i am quite noob in this stuff, Horacio i tryed your cb.bat but i get error "failed to open file!" can anybody please tell me what i do wrong? I have rtmpdump in the same folder and model is live when i try , thanks

I've just tried this version (master.zip (https://github.com/sstativa/capturebate-node/archive/master.zip)) with node.js 8.8.1 and it worked flawlessly straight away...

New ffmpeg Zeranoe, not compiled librtmp (libspeex). Therefore conversion in Windows is not possible. The last working version is 3.3.3.

[aa2018]

Does anyone know why Replay MEdia Capture 7 messes up time and records garbled FLV videos in non HLS supporting browsers like Firefox or Flash plugin Chrome, but doesn't with RMC 6?

It doesn't always happen but it does happen.

[xxhieixx]

Check your config.yml file, suppose it has some mistake.

Thanks! Checked over the config.yml and found an error in the command line.

[Damianonymous]

Most of Chaturbate's current recording apps have been removed from GitHub by the DMCA. I am asking for the references where they have been transferred, especially the SStativa and Beaston02 applications. Thank you.

[cabulo]

I can't believe that Chaturbate admin's pants are shaking from fear !

They are giving it all away for free even without you asking for it man !

[cabulo]

Yeah,

No wonder elite and governments target GitHub. Knowledge is there.

Who cares about us monkeys?

We will buy commercial software.

sstativa & beaston02 (http://s000.tinyupload.com/?file_id=04282364734638720485)

Not sure if they were the absolute latest but they are the ones I have, (use sstativa's mainly since I couldn't be bothered installing Python).

[Damianonymous]

Not sure if they were the absolute latest but they are the ones I have, (use sstativa's mainly since I couldn't be bothered installing Python).

Thanks for the insertion but I was concerned about where applications will be updated by the owners, in the case of site updates. I think that sstativa in case of failure will help us here, because Sergey is an active member, but Beaston02 here I have not seen.

[rx7sr4]

Im using the cb.bat to record but i don't like the flv file format as its very unstable and sluggish to edit/watch. is there any easy way to capture in mp4 format instead?

Thanks.

[Damianonymous]

You can quickly convert files using ffmpeg, eg with a command saved in the .bat format in a folder with files:

for %%I in ("*.flv") do ffmpeg -i "%%~I" -y -hide_banner -loglevel panic -movflags +faststart -c:v copy -c:a aac -b:a 64k %%~nI..mp4

You can try many free applications that download in mp4, avi etc., e.g. this one: https://xstreamloader.techweb.at/en/

Thank you very much. Is the sstativa Capturbate-node the one that works on Windows?

Yes, it's the one I'm using on Windows 10 ... also was using it on a RasPi2B.

I know, I'm just making it available.

Given the source is available it should be easy enough for anyone to adapt should the need arise, one day I'll get around to changing the sstativa script to not have to log in since there's no need for it.

Beaston02 is/was only sporadically seen on Reddit (https://www.reddit.com/r/DataHoarder/comments/6eixan/scripts_for_automating_the_recording_of_multiple/).

[dariusii]

Most of you probably missed this post:

http://stream-recorder.com/forum/showpost.php?p=92836&postcount=1106

... because it was published about the MFC but there is also good solution for ChaturBate and ShowUp.
This is an decompiled exe version and runs on Windows without the need to install Git and NodeJS.

NodeJS versions is there: https://github.com/horacio9a/capturebate-node

Download link for zip is: https://codeload.github.com/horacio9a/capturebate-node/zip/master

I published it a month ago, and I see that everything is working OK today ;)

Thanks.

Some times that variant was working. streams of needed channels are captured! etc.
After third run (after 4 days) I watch the next "image":
"
[23:25:14] [DEBUG] Start searching for new models.
[23:25:16] [DEBUG] Found these live followed models:
[23:25:16] [DEBUG] Create recording process.

etc
So, if be I haven't followed channels on the site.
Than I had change username and password in config to fake one (for experiment) and watching a similar result. I'm enabling debugging in config file (debug: true), but I don't know, where I can to find debug log file. There is in root directory "capturebate-node-master" I don't see any log files.
2 questions. Maybe is the chaturbate.com resource uses captcha and because the app can't log in there for working?
Where can I find log files of that windows variant app?

[supersonic80]

Try this script, it does not have one major problem that horacio9a's script has.

https://github.com/Damianonymous/capturebate-node

But before you start the script, I would recommend you to login/logout to the chaturbate.com in your browser, just to confirm that your login/password are correct and you are not banned.

Can I copy a some token/cookies from browser, where I had check authorisation, to app? without authorisation with $CaptureBate-master simular apps.

You need to have rtmpdump with KSV patches to be able to record chaturbate.

Use -V parameter to get all rtmpdump debug messages. I suppose the output will give you a hint about the origin of the problem.

I just use youtube-dl in conjunction with ffmpeg to cap CB with the following .bat in the quote below.

Just download the most recent versions of youtube-dl and ffmpeg and have them in the same folder, as well as a CB_Model.txt file to add all the room names you want to capture (just the room names, not the full link. Make sure each name is on its own separate line).

You can set your refresh time to whatever you want. It is currently set to 30seconds.
It will refresh until the room goes live. Once the room goes offline. It will start refreshing again.

Enjoy!!

Hi, is there a linux program to capture the video stream from chaturbate ?

[Damianonymous]

https://0xboobface.github.io/ctbrec/

[marck120]

https://0xboobface.github.io/ctbrec/

Thank you so much :) it works very well, on linux I had to fight for hours before being able to install java jre, without java jre ctbrec did not start properly.

By chance do you also know any program to download Channels - Rampant TV from the site ?

[Damianonymous]

I do not have Linux, I will not help you. In Windows, to Rampant.tv you only need Internet Download Manager, check the replacements for your system.

[marck120]

I do not have Linux, I will not help you. In Windows, to Rampant.tv you only need Internet Download Manager, check the replacements for your system.

Thank you for the advice, rampant.tv uses rtmp video streams, now I see if I find a download manager for linux compatible with rtmp streams. Thanks again.

[Moonspell]

https://0xboobface.github.io/ctbrec/

absolutely stunning program, now even more complete with support to camsoda, bongacams, cam4, chaturbate and myfreecams... simply the best that i've found, so far! :)
is my perfect tool for record 24-7

and there is for windows and linux so... even more easier for the ones who want it in linux
