Can somebody help get filmon rtmp code to play with livestreamer?

Re: Can somebody help get filmon rtmp code to play with livestreamer?

 

Been a while since I used Delphi, do Delphi5 win32 exes still work on win10 x64?

Re: Can somebody help get filmon rtmp code to play with livestreamer?

 

Good question.


I use delphi 7 to compile this.

Free pascal ( lazarus ) does not have clipbrd unit.


I cannot install delphi 7 on windows 7 so this is what I do:

install delphi 7 as minimal as you can on XP and manually backup ( copy )
command line compiler only. ( bin, lib, and 2 registry files )

registry files you "export" after minimal delphi installation:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Borland]

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Borland]


This is content of "installation" pack:

Bin
Lib
hkcu.reg
hklm.reg
SETUP.bat

"Installation":

SETUP.bat:

xcopy *.* C:\"Program Files"\Borland\Delphi7 /S /I /Y
regedit /s hkcu.reg
regedit /s hklm.reg


Use:

D7.bat:

"C:\Program Files\Borland\Delphi7\BIN\DCC32.EXE" -cc %1
pause

Example:

C:\MISC\D7>D7 GINIKO_URL.dpr

C:\MISC\D7>"C:\Program Files\Borland\Delphi7\BIN\DCC32.EXE" -cc GINIKO_URL.dpr
Borland Delphi Version 15.0
Copyright (c) 1983,2002 Borland Software Corporation
GINIKO_URL.dpr(32) Warning: Text after final 'END.' - ignored by compiler
GINIKO_URL.dpr(48)
49 lines, 0.03 seconds, 318932 bytes code, 7873 bytes data.

C:\MISC\D7>pause
Press any key to continue . . .


Why not C, this would be the best ?

C code is not so appealing, though being the best and portable everywhere.

Re: Can somebody help get filmon rtmp code to play with livestreamer?

 

Say that I need 1 day for each line of my proposed 4 line batch file ...

yes if I was superman.

This all has to be done invisible and to loop.

Now I look at 1st line "save web page as txt" and I look at curl...

xidel can do that but advanced use of xidel is beyond me.

the most efficient use of this would be to set ID variable in batch file as output from curl or xidel.

Re: Can somebody help get filmon rtmp code to play with livestreamer?

 

Laj,

are you still alive and well?

Here are HRTV chunks recorded in sequence one after the other.


@title hrtvRDump.bat
:START
@if "%time:~0,1%" == " " (set d=%date:~-4%-%date:~3,2%-%date:~0,2%_0%time:~1,1%-%time:~3,2%-%time:~6,2%) ^
else (set d=%date:~-4%-%date:~3,2%-%date:~0,2%_%time:~0,2%-%time:~3,2%-%time:~6,2%)
@FOR /f %%x IN ('HRTV.exe') DO @set var=%%x
rtmpdump.exe -v -r %var% -o %d%_hrtv.flv
@FOR %%I in (%d%_hrtv.flv) do @if %%~zI LSS 1 del "%%I"
:LOOP
@FOR /f %%a IN ('HRTV.exe') DO @set var2=%%a
if "%var%"=="%var2" goto LOOP
goto START


For this to work you need these files in the same location or on the path:

hrtvrdump.bat
hrtv.exe
curl.exe
rtmpdump.exe


hrtv.au3:

RunWait( 'cmd.exe /c curl -A Mozilla/5.0 -s http://www.filmon.com/api-v2/channel/694?protocol=rtmp | CLIP','', @SW_HIDE )
$sData = ClipGet()
$first = StringInStr( $sData, '"quality":"high","url":"' ) + 23
$sData = StringTrimLeft( $sData, $first )
$last = StringLen( $sData ) - ( StringInStr( $sData, '","watch-timeout":0}]' ) - 1 )
$sData = StringTrimRight( $sData, $last ) & '/694.high.stream'
ConsoleWrite( $sData & @CRLF )


you need to compile .au3 with autoit to get .exe

Aut2Exe.exe /in hrtv.au3

https://www.autoitscript.com/site/autoit/downloads/

autoit-v3.zip

If you want to see the output from hrtv.exe on its own you need to enter on command line: hrtv|more



curl:

http://www.paehl.com/open_source/?CURL_7.51.0

curl_751_0.zip


After you run hrtvrdump.bat for some time you will find chunks looking like this:

2016-12-30_17-24-14_hrtv.flv
2016-12-30_17-26-22_hrtv.flv
2016-12-30_17-28-31_hrtv.flv
2016-12-30_17-30-37_hrtv.flv
2016-12-30_17-32-46_hrtv.flv

you can concatenate them and get continuous stream.


You can play the stream directly, player will be restarting every 2 minutes,
.bat file looping sometimes until the next chunk starts.


@title hrtvFF.bat
:START
@FOR /f %%x IN ('HRTV.exe') DO @set var=%%x
rtmpdump.exe -v -r %var% |ffplay.exe -autoexit -
:LOOP
@FOR /f %%a IN ('HRTV.exe') DO @set var2=%%a
if "%var%"=="%var2" goto LOOP
goto START


This can be improved upon if we knew how to get rtmpdump or ffmpeg
keep appending chunks instead of overwriting them, other members welcome with feedback.

Re: Can somebody help get filmon rtmp code to play with livestreamer?

 

Hey j cool,

Does it really work? Looks complicated. Thanks for the help!

Re: Can somebody help get filmon rtmp code to play with livestreamer?

 

This is ongoing work. You get chunks as I said.

If this worked for private shows on webcam sites it would be the biggest hit on this forum.

You have noticed well that it is not something sophisticated.

Idea of this is to see how it works and improve.

Improvement is not packing it all up in one EXE with autoit at this stage but get the stream play continuously with the player first.

Without the URL you posted I could not had started anything with HRTV and here are chunks for the start.

Re: Can somebody help get filmon rtmp code to play with livestreamer?

 

You might be able do it with a delayed loop or something

Create clip list file
Join all clips together once the stream has ended
The thing is though even when you join files there's an offset between the two files because the second clip contains around 1-2 seconds from previous clip as it's starting point so you need to trim them otherwise you'll get jumps.

Re: Can somebody help get filmon rtmp code to play with livestreamer?

 

We will have to live with that jump between chunks.

You must be real hacker to get this playing straight.

If I can get the stream recorded as one continuous file it can be opened with player and played "as it goes".

( maybe piped without writting to disk )

Concatenating chunks "as it goes" makes that impossible.

There are more people working on ffmpeg than on rtmpdump, and if ffmpeg does not offer --append switch
it must be something hard to implement.

I do something similar to what you propose.

Re: Can somebody help get filmon rtmp code to play with livestreamer?

 

Ihry,

I was thinking about the gap between chunks.

I was not sure about how much we are missing there and you made it clear that it is nothing missing there but extra 1 sec or 2.

That can be trimmed before concatenation.

Somebody may answer how to know the number of extra seconds ( when is 1, when are 2 ) or how to find it out.

Jumps would irritate if that were few seconds chunks.

In 2 minutes chunks I personally don't mind the jump.

Some beta or irregular release of rtmpdump or ffmpeg that would write those 2 minutes chunks to ONE FILE without overwriting would work fine for me.

Re: Can somebody help get filmon rtmp code to play with livestreamer?

 

The chunk overlap time seems to be the time taken to connect to the next stream clip in the sequence, you could probably dump a timed value into a txt file by setting timer to start on rtmp starting and then ending when the clip being is written to the hdd.


set time_start=%time%
set time_end=%time%
set time_taken=%time_end%-%time_start%
echo time_taken

Re: Can somebody help get filmon rtmp code to play with livestreamer?

 

Livestreamer


File output options:
-o FILENAME, --output FILENAME
Write stream data to FILENAME instead of playing it.

You will be prompted if the file already exists.

-f, --force
When using -o, always write to file even if it already exists.

-O, --stdout
Write stream data to stdout instead of playing it.

Re: Can somebody help get filmon rtmp code to play with livestreamer?

 

Laj,

here is HRTV recorded as one continuous file.
You can play it with a player "as it goes", but player may stumble or fall now and then.
Recorded file will be of acceptable standard.


@title hrtvVLCrtmp.bat
@if "%time:~0,1%" == " " (set d=%date:~-4%%date:~3,2%%date:~0,2%0%time:~1,1%%time:~3,2%%ti me:~6,2%) ^
else (set d=%date:~-4%%date:~3,2%%date:~0,2%%time:~0,2%%time:~3,2%%tim e:~6,2%)
:start
@for /f %%x in ('hrtv.exe') do @set var=%%x
vlc.exe %var% --sout=file{append}/ts:hrtv_%d%.mpg
:loop
@for /f %%y in ('hrtv.exe') do @set var2=%%y
if "%var%"=="%var2" goto loop
goto start



For this to work you need these files in the same location and vlc on the path,
and to make an effort and compile hrtv.au3 with autoit to get hrtv.exe.


hrtvVLCrtmp.bat
hrtv.exe
curl.exe


Recorded file will look something like this:

hrtv_201701131915.mpg


;hrtv.au3
RunWait( 'cmd.exe /c curl -A Mozilla/5.0 -s http://www.filmon.com/api-v2/channel/694?protocol=rtmp | CLIP','', @SW_HIDE )
$sData = ClipGet()
$first = StringInStr( $sData, '"quality":"high","url":"' ) + 23
$sData = StringTrimLeft( $sData, $first )
$last = StringLen( $sData ) - ( StringInStr( $sData, '","watch-timeout":0}]' ) - 1 )
$sData = StringTrimRight( $sData, $last ) & '/694.high.stream'
ConsoleWrite( $sData & @CRLF )

Re: Can somebody help get filmon rtmp code to play with livestreamer?

 

j cool,

Thanks for working on this filmon code for me! I have never used autoit or curl before. What should I do first? Thanks again buddy!

Re: Can somebody help get filmon rtmp code to play with livestreamer?

 

It appears to be that you are the only one on the internet watching HRTV and me and Ihry
only ones interested about how it all works.

I find it amazing.


Confused says:

Livestreamer !


The only problem with livestreamer is that it's error messages are not so descriptive, it says only 403, forbidden.

FFplay is a little more explainatory saying: cookie missing, though it is questionable because I can play first chunk, and then break.

So with HLS.

RTMP can be done with livestreamer but it would require longer code to get parameters right.


It would be great to get this working in HLS as well, I started to look to spoof cookie on command line for the start,
but is it cookie or not, it would be great to hear from other members.

Re: Can somebody help get filmon rtmp code to play with livestreamer?

 

Back to VLC:

First thing to do is to make sure your VLC works everywhere in windows.

on command line type: path, press enter key.

You should see something like this:

C:\>path
PATH=C:\Windows\system32;C:\Windows;C:\Windows\Sys tem32\Wbem;C:\Windows\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v 1.0\;C:\P\GnuWin32\b
in;C:\AP;C:\AP\7Z;C:\AP\FF;C:\AP\RDUMP;C:\P\M;C:\P \VLC;C:\P\LIVESTR;C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jre1.8.0_111\bin

If you don't see location of your vlc.exe here you will have to replace vlc.exe in batch file
with full path to wherever your vlc.exe is:

"C:\Program Files ...\vlc.exe"



To make this organized create directory C:\HRTV and copy to it all files required:

C:\HRTV>dir /b /on
curl.exe
HRTV.au3
HRTV.exe - this one you will get after you compile hrtv.au3 with autoit.
hrtvVLCrtmp.bat



Create txt file and name it: hrtvVLCrtmp.bat, copy code from below and paste it in.

:start
for /f %%x in ('hrtv.exe') do set var=%%x
vlc.exe %var% --sout=file{append}/ts:hrtv.mpg
:loop
for /f %%y in ('hrtv.exe') do set var2=%%y
if "%var%"=="%var2" goto loop
goto start


This is the simplest code possible it can be. Batch file will create hrtv.mpg file.
This batch file will start working only when you start it and stop only when you kill it.
If you let it run it will never stop, appending chunks untill your disk is full and PC stops working.
If you come in situation that you cannot stop it for some reason beyond me,
switch the power button on your PC off.
Restart the PC, and batch file will not run again unless you start it again.
After you finish with recording rename hrtv.mpg to something else or delete it.
If you leave it, next time you run batch file it will continue appending to saved hrtv.mpg.

To play the stream while it is being recorded, to get uninterupted play start playing when there is
some of this stream already saved on the disk, ideally after second chunk had started recording.



Download curl_752_1.zip from this link and unzip it, there will be only one file inside zip, curl.exe.

http://www.paehl.com/open_source/?CURL_7.52.1

CURL 7.52.1

create txt file, name it htrv.au3, copy code from below and paste it in.

RunWait( 'cmd.exe /c curl -A Mozilla/5.0 -s http://www.filmon.com/api-v2/channel/694?protocol=rtmp | CLIP','', @SW_HIDE )
$sData = ClipGet()
$first = StringInStr( $sData, '"quality":"high","url":"' ) + 23
$sData = StringTrimLeft( $sData, $first )
$last = StringLen( $sData ) - ( StringInStr( $sData, '","watch-timeout":0}]' ) - 1 )
$sData = StringTrimRight( $sData, $last ) & '/694.high.stream'
ConsoleWrite( $sData & @CRLF )



Download autoit from here:

https://www.autoitscript.com/site/autoit/downloads/

Download zip:

autoit-v3.zip

unzip it wherever you like and you will get directory: install:

C:\install>dir /b /on

AutoItX

SciTe
Au3Check.dat
Au3Check.exe
Au3Info.exe
Au3Info_x64.exe
AutoIt v3 Website.url
AutoIt.chm
AutoIt3.exe
AutoIt3_x64.exe
AutoIt3Help.exe


change to directory Aut2Exe and copy to it hrtv.au3, content should look like this:

C:\install\Aut2Exe>dir /o/b
Icons
Aut2exe.exe
Aut2exe_x64.exe
HRTV.au3
upx.exe

on command line type this and press enter:

C:\install\Aut2Exe>Aut2exe.exe /in hrtv.au3


This will create hrtv.exe


Now, when you have it all together inside HRTV directory double click on hrtvVLCrtmp.bat and
cmd window and minimal vlc will pop up ( no stream to see ) and stream will be recording to hrtv.mpg.

After every chunk vlc will close and pop-up again every 2 minutes, and in between while waiting for next chunk to start.

This all can be made invisible and better and would require longer code.

So long for now, this post is Marathon, you can always ask for more details.

Re: Can somebody help get filmon rtmp code to play with livestreamer?

 

You are a...

VIRUS !

Re: Can somebody help get filmon rtmp code to play with livestreamer?

 

If you don't see the stream, don't panic.

HRTV is not on the air for 24 hours as they claim they are.

It can be seen if the stream is on the air or not.

$sData = StringTrimRight( $sData, $last )
ConsoleWrite( $sData & @CRLF )



If the stream in not on the air HLS protocol will kindly display "no stream available".


If the stream is on the air, FFplay with play the first chunk and than close and cmd winow will display this:

Invalid cookie found, no value, path or domain specified

Re: Can somebody help get filmon rtmp code to play with livestreamer?

 

Livestreamer is replaced with Streamlink.

Links to new filmon plug-in:


https://github.com/streamlink/streamlink/issues/507

https://github.com/beardypig/streaml...gins/filmon.py



set url=http://www.filmon.com/channel/bbc-news
streamlink --http-header "User-Agent=Mozilla/5.0" --player "ffplay.exe -vf scale=854:480" %url% worst

Re: Can somebody help get filmon rtmp code to play with livestreamer?

 

Laj,

you can try solution for HRTV from here:

https://github.com/streamlink/streamlink/issues/510

May work for you.


Cheers,

Johnny.

Re: Can somebody help get filmon rtmp code to play with livestreamer?

 

Proven to work with solution #508

https://github.com/streamlink/streamlink/issues/510

Re: Can somebody help get filmon rtmp code to play with livestreamer?

 

j cool,

Thanks for the help buddy. It's working for me only with low and keep getting the "Failed to reload playlist" warning. Is it the same for you?

Re: Can somebody help get filmon rtmp code to play with livestreamer?

 

Yes, it works for me on low stream only. I ignore display in CMD window
and the stream is continuous and lasts long.

I resize ffplay window and it looks good to me.

I use streamlink to watch BBC low because streamlink starts the stream instantly
while my shity script takes 3 seconds or so to show the stream.

Streamlink gives you HRTV low in a player continuously, remarkable achievement.

High stream is luxury and if I cannot get it I am sort of a shy to ask beardypig to get it for me.

There is more technical talk on streamlink and livestreamer threads on github,
while on this forum it is more broad and wide.

You may sound just stupid here and you are just fine here, this forum is superb
for both knowledge and non-knowledge.

Re: Can somebody help get filmon rtmp code to play with livestreamer?

 

j cool,

Does this mean that the filmon HRTV high stream should work now?

https://github.com/streamlink/streamlink/pull/508

https://github.com/streamlink/streamlink/pull/522

Can you figure it out? Thanks.

Re: Can somebody help get filmon rtmp code to play with livestreamer?

 

You can keep your eye on streamlink-latest.exe ( nightly ) here:

https://streamlink.github.io/install...ndows-binaries

https://streamlink-builds.s3.amazona...ink-latest.exe



I don't see any difference for now.

High stream actually works with what you already have, you just have to wait for breaks to end between chunks.

I am better off watching low with resized ffplay so breaks come less often,
my graphic card is Matrox C680 and monitor Eizo FlexScan S1923, so resized low looks like high.

Re: Can somebody help get filmon rtmp code to play with livestreamer?

 

Have you tried -ldebug ?
It's an incredibly elegant solution !

Re: Can somebody help get filmon rtmp code to play with livestreamer?

 

Not yet.

At that time ffplay.exe worked somehow with some errors, post #57

[http @ 04933140] Invalid cookie found, no value, path or domain specified
[http @ 06820880] HTTP error 403 Forbidden= 49KB sq= 0B f=0/0

Later I discovered streamlink and beardypig wrote new filmon.py.

I missed -ldebug in livestreamer readme file back then.

I am curious what caused 403.

I did run livestreamer now for test:


C:\MISC\NEWS\HRTV>livestreamer.exe -ldebug https://www.filmon.com/channel/bbc-news best

error: No streams found on this URL: https://www.filmon.com/channel/bbc-news

C:\MISC\NEWS\HRTV>pause
Press any key to continue . . .

Running streamlink with -ldebug there is no error now.

Re: Can somebody help get filmon rtmp code to play with livestreamer?

 

@Vaganza,

Excellent incredibly elegant solution! Thanks buddy!

Re: Can somebody help get filmon rtmp code to play with livestreamer?

 

Apparently a lucky strike.
Even beardypig wondered if it would work.
I thought this was what he meant by proposing using it.
I haven't used it for like watching films yet. So let's see.

Re: Can somebody help get filmon rtmp code to play with livestreamer?

 

Well,

Beardypig did actually work out something out of -ldebug HRTV.

Re: Can somebody help get filmon rtmp code to play with livestreamer?

 

Beardypig is a very sharp guy. Using HRTV high with the nightly.

Re: Can somebody help get filmon rtmp code to play with livestreamer?

 

Where can we get nightly builds?

Re: Can somebody help get filmon rtmp code to play with livestreamer?

 

https://streamlink.github.io/#

GitHub: https://github.com/streamlink/streamlink

Installers for Windows/Mac/Linux:

Windows ( link )

https://streamlink.github.io/install...ndows-binaries

You can download the latest nightly Windows installer here. ( this link )

https://streamlink-builds.s3.amazona...ink-latest.exe

Yesterday's was: 0.3.1.807

Today's is: 0.3.1.814

Re: Can somebody help get filmon rtmp code to play with livestreamer?

 

Should this also concern the use of -ldebug your not dependent on the Nightly Builds,
the only thing for any reinstall is to uninstall first according to beardypig:
“...if you want the latest filmon fixes” (0.3.1), but obviously also for any coming (future) fixes.
Don't remember if that ever was the case with Livestreamer.

As j_cool has linked to Github I'm assuming it's okay:
"...updated plugin to match changes..."

By the way, my question about if this ever was available in Livestreamer
and his suggestion “--loglevel” isn't working for me so this must be totally new.
That's why I think it should be included in some documentation.

However, he/ (they) has made it possible to just download
the Nightly Builds, extract it and then replace or put in any new fixes.
My directory: C:\Program Files (x86)\Streamlink\pkgs\streamlink\plugins.

Re: Can somebody help get filmon rtmp code to play with livestreamer?

 

Thanks :cool:

I don't suppose there is anyway to make it support player pausing for tea breaks? like a temporary created cache record file if it detects the player has been paused, i'm using MPC-BE x64 and it loses the stream if paused it'll play for like 3-5mins after the paused time then go off, maybe via ffplay.

Re: Can somebody help get filmon rtmp code to play with livestreamer?

 

This one works fine:

set url=http://www.filmon.com/channel/bbc-news
start /min streamlink --http-header "User-Agent=Mozilla/5.0" --player "ffplay.exe -vf scale=854:480" %url% worst


This one not so fine:

set url=http://www.filmon.com/channel/bbc-news
start /min streamlink --http-header "User-Agent=Mozilla/5.0" --player "ffplay.exe" %url% best


You can dump the stream on disk, wait for some stream to get saved on disk, and play the stream from disk with any player.
Mplayer, FFplay ...

This way there are no tea breaks, but one second more or less between chunks.

Python guys know how to sort it out or somebody like rtmpdump team.
Look at Vaughnlive.py, one example of excellence of stramlink/livestreamer team.

Re: Can somebody help get filmon rtmp code to play with livestreamer?

 

Ihry,

This reading may answer your last post:

streamlink -h

--player-no-close
By default Streamlink will close the player when the stream ends.
This is to avoid "dead" GUI players lingering after a stream ends.

It does however have the side-effect of sometimes closing a player
before it has played back all of its cached data.

This option will instead let the player decide when to exit.


--player-continuous-http
Make the player read the stream through HTTP, but unlike
--player-http it will continuously try to open the stream if the
player requests it.

Re: Can somebody help get filmon rtmp code to play with livestreamer?

 

hmmm getting file not found in MPC-BE x64.

Re: Can somebody help get filmon rtmp code to play with livestreamer?

 

I have not tried mpc-be yet.

Here are streamlink players, and what they do and don't do.
Scroll the page to see Known issues and workarounds, MPC-HC reports “File not found”.

https://streamlink.github.io/players.html

Note the absence of ffplay, to people this is no player at all, and can do it all.

This works perfectly fine:

start /min streamlink --player "ffplay.exe" http://www.filmon.com/channel/cbs-action best

Re: Can somebody help get filmon rtmp code to play with livestreamer?

 

Ok thanks I'll try with VLC, ffplay and MPC-HC.
I was running v1.4.6 (build 1478) beta of MPC-BE.

Re: Can somebody help get filmon rtmp code to play with livestreamer?

 

Ok MPC-HC is playing back fine :)

Recording though is intermittent though it looses the stream 1-2mins in and sometimes repeats the same section in the recording, I guess it has do with it timing out and reloading the playlist instead of just adding / playing the next segment.

Also without adding the following I kept getting 403 client forbidden errors.
