2 codes here that look different but both work
nasa stream

rtmpdump -r "rtmp://cp39920.live.edgefcs.net:1935/live" -a "live" -f "WIN 10,3,183,7" -W "http://cdn1.ustream.tv/swf/4/viewer.rsl.755.swf" -p "http://www.ustream.tv/nasahdtv" -y "nasahd@55196" -v | "C:\Program Files\VideoLAN\VLC\vlc.exe" -

stream of a city and railroad tracks unknown page but works

rtmpdump -v -r "rtmp://cp39920.live.edgefcs.net:1935/live/ustream-lax@11172" -W "http://cdn1.ustream.tv/swf/4/viewer.rsl.593.swf" | "C:\Program Files\VideoLAN\VLC\vlc.exe" -

using url snooper right now
having trouble getting any custom stream to play
using either of those 2 lines of code as templates
this probably isn't 24 hours but its popular right now
http://www.ustream.tv/channel/hiitsustreamtv02
edited the template myself filling in the variables

rtmpdump -r "rtmp://ustream.fc.llnwd.net:1935/ustream" -a "live" -f "WIN 10,3,183,7" -W "http://static-cdn1.ustream.tv/swf/live/viewer.rsl:21.swf" -p "http://www.ustream.tv/channel/hiitsustreamtv02" -y "hiitsustreamtv02@8440807" -v | "C:\Program Files\VideoLAN\VLC\vlc.exe" -

C:\>

does what you have to enter depend on the stream?
any reliable way to easily find and play any stream?
in particularly streams that dont go on 24/7 now?
because i don't want to bother people asking for custom codes
i want to learn how to do this myself with any stream
