When I can't download flvs with Orbit I use RMTPdump (http://all-streaming-media.com/record-video-stream/rtmpdump-freeware-console-RTMP-downloading-application.htm) and I never have problems - until a Brightcove player comes around!

Here is a example:

These are the commands I am trying after looking on this forum:
rtmpdump -n "brightcove-81.fcod.llnwd.net" -c 1935 -l 0 -a "/a500/d12?videoId=640645153001&lineUpId=207603118001&pubId=108289241001&playerId=260808660001&playerTag=&affiliateId=" -p "http://www.dallasnews.com/video/index.html?bcid=640645153001" -y "media/108289241001/108289241001_640661188001_101810-5668A-flay-nh-brightcove720p.mp4?videoId=640645153001&lineUpId=207603118001&pubId=108289241001&playerId=260808660001&playerTag=&affiliateId=" -s "http://admin.brightcove.com/viewer/us1.24.02.00.2010-10-07112610/BrightcoveBootloader.swf?autoStart=&bgcolor=%23FFFFFF&dynamicStreaming=true&flashID=myExperience&height=270&isVid=true&playerID=260808660001&publisherID=108289241001&width=400&wmode=opaque" -o "c:\xx.flv"

I have tried this in version 1.9 and 2.3 - neither work. Can anyone shine some light on what the correct parameters are? I don't want to use another program, I would like to figure out how to correctly use RTMPdump

UPDATE: I tried stream transport and was able to download it but I would still like to know how to use RTMPdump

Use rtmpsrv or rtmpsuck to find out what parameters are needed for rtmpdump (http://all-streaming-media.com/record-video-stream/rtmpdump-freeware-console-RTMP-downloading-application.htm).

You can also many other RTMP Flash stream recorders (http://all-streaming-media.com/record-video-stream/record-streaming-video-Adobe-Flash-FLV-videos.htm) here. For example, you can try to download RTMP streams with freeware CooJah + Blader (http://all-streaming-media.com/record-video-stream/Blader-freeware-RTMP-downloader.htm), Orbit Downloader (http://all-streaming-media.com/record-video-stream/Download-manager-Orbit-Downloader-Record-HTTP-MMS-RTSP-RTMP-media-streams-Freeware.htm), StreamTransport (http://all-streaming-media.com/record-video-stream/StreamTransport-Download-HTTP-RTMP-RTMPE-streams.htm) or shareware Replay Media Catcher (http://all-streaming-media.com/record-video-stream/Replay-Media-Catcher-HTTP-RTMP-FLV-MP3-ripper-recorder.htm), WM Recorder (http://all-streaming-media.com/record-video-stream/WMRecorder-One-click-online-audio-video-stream-recorder.htm).

And you can capture RTMP streams with freeware CooJah (http://all-streaming-media.com/record-video-stream/Blader-freeware-RTMP-downloader.htm), Orbit Grab Pro or shareware Replay Media Catcher (http://all-streaming-media.com/record-video-stream/Replay-Media-Catcher-HTTP-RTMP-FLV-MP3-ripper-recorder.htm).

Thanks for the reply.

I used rtmpsrv as suggested and followed this how to guide (http://stream-recorder.com/forum/tutorial-simply-use-rtmpsrv-and-example-t6325.html).

The resulting code still didn't work, it connected but the server sent an error. Have you ever had to modify to outputted code any?
