If you need new hardware only for recording such videos, then it could be better to get an HD video recorder

Flash and streams of this size and bigger is quite hungry for CPU as cuda support isn't present in flash yet.

But great excuse to get a nice graphics card as well when doing the upgrade(s)

Recording from the PC which is also the source (browser/flash) or you trying to give me another excuse to go shopping for a complete PC and keeping the old as recording target ROFL

So i see you solved wnba problem so i've got one more for you experts. I've benn trying to solve this for 3 days and still without success.

http://ilp.nba.com/nbalp/console.jsp

Nba league pass changed their streaming and instead of one FLV file this year stram consists of several MP4 files. Example:

http://nlds24.cdnl3.neulion.com/nlds/nba/chicago/as/live/chicago_hd_4/20101212/01/0038.mp4

There are thousands of these...

So i tried Wireshark, CooJah, some others and finally got some interesting URL with URLSnooper.

rtmp://cdncon.fcod.llnwd.net/a277/e1/mp4:u/nbamobile/vod/nba/2010/12/10/21000333/pc/2_21000333_lal_chi_2010_h_condensed.mp4]]

I tried to download this with rtmpdump, failed. Then tried Orbit Downloader, failed again. RMC4 captures only small MP4 files. So i would be very grateful if someone could help me solve this.

Thanks in advance

EDIT: Of course we are talking about downloading whole games

To download RTMP streams you may need to know not only the URL, but also some other parameters. If you can play the RTMP stream, you should be able to get them.

interesting url indeed. i get a "stream not found"-error when i feed the url to Replay Media Catcher. SR is right, the url looks harmless and tools (e.g. rtmpdump.exe) should be able to download it when you pass the full command line with parameters to the tools.

knowing the rtmp url is not enough to make rtmpdump download the url. rtmpdump frequently needs a host of parameters.

and check out this thread: http://stream-recorder.com/forum/vid...oad-t5365.html .. it shows you how (easy) the command line could look like, even when other tools (incl. rtmpsrv.exe) fail.

i can't test it. i don't live in The States.

I think i got some parameters...
for -s

http://neulion.vo.llnwd.net/o37/nba/player/nbalp/console.swf

http://neulion.vo.llnwd.net/o37/nba/player/nbalp/flex/chatroom.swf

These two are candidates and i used first one because second one probably has something to do with the chatroom.

The easiest -p

http://ilp.nba.com/nbalp/console.jsp

And -o

Here i'm not sure wheather to put .flv or .mp4 (i'm a little confused), tried both thou and still didn't work...

I didn't try -n
I don't know where to look for that... i know you can find it from the url But the question is can you use source IP address. If you can then it is 208.92.36.180.

So if anybody can put this together for an rtmpdump command line and get it to work i would be very pleased.

hmmm... says "stream not found".
(maybe the url isnt good anymore?)

[Anon123]

Yes i tried that. i tried everything, but it seems like it can't be solved I think the url should be good. i also tried todays games and didn't succeed.

So here is my problem. About 3-4 months ago i figured how to download games from NBA ILP. But then obviously something changed and i can't figure it out so i came here for some help.

Here is how it used to be:
I got 2 parameters with Fiddler. They were:

rtmp://cdncon.fcod.llnwd.net/a277/e1/mp4:u/nbamobile/vod/nba/2010/12/06/21000302/pc/2_21000302_tor_ind_2010_h_whole_hd.mp4

rtmp://cdncon.fcod.llnwd.net/a277/e1/mp4:u/nbamobile/vod/nba/2010/12/06/21000302/pc/2_21000302_tor_ind_2010_h_whole_hd?e=1293565468&h=b820e2d89d76fd0e3e8bf2e3a6134508

then i put those parameters together and i got this line:

rtmpdump -r "rtmp://cdncon.fcod.llnwd.net/a277/e1/mp4:u/nbamobile/vod/nba/2010/12/06/21000302/pc/2_21000302_tor_ind_2010_h_whole_hd.mp4" -o "ind_tor.flv" -t "rtmp://cdncon.fcod.llnwd.net/a277/e1/mp4:u/nbamobile/vod/nba/2010/12/06/21000302/pc/2_21000302_tor_ind_2010_h_whole_hd?e=1293565468&h=b820e2d89d76fd0e3e8bf2e3a6134508"

AND IT WORKED!!!

But then they changed, servers probably.

NOW: i get those two parameters in Fiddler:

rtmp://cp117939.edgefcs.net/ondemand/mp4:s/nbamobile/vod/nba/2011/03/02/21000902/pc/2_21000902_chi_atl_2010_h_whole_hd.mp4

and if I put them together like I used to, I get an error:
rtmp server sent error
rtmp server requested close

I would really appreciate if someone could figure this out. Here are some additional parameters that could help:

Host ip: 208.92.36.180
Console: GET /o37/nba/player/nbalp/console.swf HTTP/1.1

Thanks in advance...
