RTMPDump - how do I compile source code in Linux like Ubuntu?

(http://stream-recorder.com/forum/showthread.php?t=4229)

Re: Where can I download the latest version of rtmpdump (source + binaries)?

Hi
Thanks for your work KSV.
I've used the binaries with Windows.:)

When the program runs it says:-

Code:

RTMPDump v2.3 r568 (Compiled by KSV)

(c) 2010 Andrej Stepanchuk, Howard Chu, The Flvstreamer Team; license: GPL

But when I compile RTMPDump from SVN for Linux, it says:-

Code:

RTMPDump v2.3

(c) 2010 Andrej Stepanchuk, Howard Chu, The Flvstreamer Team; license: GPL

Please can somebody explain how I can get my SVN compiled Linux RTMPDump to display the revision number?
Is it a matter of editing a file before I compile?:confused:

Very close! :D

make VERSION=r568 gives:-

Code:

RTMPDump r568

(c) 2010 Andrej Stepanchuk, Howard Chu, The Flvstreamer Team; license: GPL

So I've used:-
make VERSION="v2.3\ r568"

This gives:-

Code:

RTMPDump v2.3 r568

Thanks for the help.:cool: :cool:

In case anyone's interested, this is the command I used to compile for Ubuntu:-

Code:

svn co svn://svn.mplayerhq.hu/rtmpdump/trunk rtmpdump && \

cd rtmpdump && \

make VERSION="v2.3\ r568" && \

sudo checkinstall --pakdir "$HOME/Desktop" --pkgname rtmpdump \

--pkgversion "2.3-r568" --backup=no --deldoc=yes --default && sudo ldconfig

Hi all!
I'm quite a fan of RTMPDump as it allows me to schedule the download of my favourite live streams and watch them when I have the time for them, with a little program I made.

In some cases when an error was thrown RTMPDump2.3 does not close the window (specifically when recv receives -1) so I needed to modify librtmp to suit my needs.
Although the README file on the source package is quite helpful it seems it is a bit outdated, so here is a guide to compile RTMPDump with the current release.

Here is my experience with compiling RTMPDump2.3 with Ubuntu Maverick.
First compile I compiled for linux to see if all is ok.
Download and install OpenSSL:

Code:

wget http://www.openssl.org/source/openssl-1.0.0d.tar.gz

tar xvzf openssl-1.0.0d.tar.gz

cd openssl-1.0.0d

./config

make

sudo make install

Download and install libz:

Code:

wget http://zlib.net/zlib-1.2.5.tar.gz

tar xvzf zlib-1.2.5.tar.gz

cd zlib-1.2.5

./configure

make

sudo make install

go to cd rtmpdump-2.3 directory and edit Makefile line

Code:

LIB_OPENSSL=-lssl -lcrypto

Code:

LIB_OPENSSL=-lssl -lcrypto -ldl

finally make the project

Code:

make INC=-I/usr/local/ssl/include/ LDFLAGS=-L/usr/local/ssl/lib

If all goes ok, you'll get the rtmpdump binary built!

Having the linux version built I started the adventure of cross compiling it for windows
So I extracted the rtmpdump-2.3 tgz to another folder, rtmpdump-2.3Win in order not to screw up the linux built version

Code:

 wget http://rtmpdump.mplayerhq.hu/download/rtmpdump-2.3.tgz

tar xvzf rtmpdump-2.3.tgz rtmpdump-2.3Win

cd rtmpdump-2.3Win/

PS-the svn version didn't compile, use the tzg version!

To cross compile anything for windows you need mingw32 which you get with the command

Code:

sudo apt-get install mingw32

Then configure the openSSL for windows

Code:

wget http://www.openssl.org/source/openssl-1.0.0d.tar.gz

tar xvzf openssl-1.0.0d.tar.gz

cd openssl-1.0.0d

./Configure mingw --prefix=`pwd`/win32libs -DL_ENDIAN -DOPENSSL_NO_HW  --cross-compile-prefix=i586-mingw32msvc-

make

Get zlib already compiled for windows (less hassle this way)

Code:

wget http://zlib.net/zlib125-dll.zip

unzip zlib125-dll.zip

cd lib

cp zdll.lib libz.a

Then issue this magic command, where you should replace

-I/home/birdofprey/rtmpdump-2.3Win/openssl-1.0.0d/include/ for the path where the openssl includes are located (ssl.h, rc4.h, etc).

-I/home/birdofprey/rtmpdump-2.3Win/include/ for the path where the zlib includes are located (zlib.h, zconf.h)

-L/home/birdofprey/rtmpdump-2.3Win/openssl-1.0.0d/ with the path that leads you to the newly built windows libs libcrypto.a and libssl.a

-L/home/birdofprey/rtmpdump-2.3Win/lib for the path of your extracted libz.a.

Code:

make SYS=mingw INC="-I/home/birdofprey/rtmpdump-2.3Win/openssl-1.0.0d/include/ -I/home/birdofprey/rtmpdump-2.3Win/include/ -I/usr/i586-mingw32msvc/include/ -I/usr/local/include/" LDFLAGS="-L/home/birdofprey/rtmpdump-2.3Win/openssl-1.0.0d/ -L/usr/i586-mingw32msvc/lib/ -L/home/birdofprey/rtmpdump-2.3Win/lib" XCFLAGS="-DWIN32 -D_WIN32" CROSS_COMPILE=i586-mingw32msvc-

et voila you get a brand new rtmpdump.exe

to test it on linux do

Code:

sudo apt-get install wine

wine rtmpdump

and you'll get the marvelous strings::D

Code:

RTMPDump v2.3 Mod BirdOfPrey

(c) 2010 Andrej Stepanchuk, Howard Chu, The Flvstreamer Team; license: GPL

Application tried to create a window, but no driver could be loaded.

Make sure that your X server is running and that $DISPLAY is set correctly.

err:systray:initialize_systray Could not create tray window

fixme:toolhelp:CreateToolhelp32Snapshot Unimplemented: heap list snapshot

fixme:toolhelp:Heap32ListFirst : stub

ERROR: You must specify a hostname (--host) or url (-r "rtmp://host[:port]/playpath") containing a hostname

To put it working on windows you need to put rtmpdump.exe, librtmp.dll and zlib1.dll in the same folder.

Have fun compiling RTMPDump!:cool: :cool:

Can you help me with this compile? I'm fairly new to compiling C-code in Ubuntu, but I did follow your manual very carefully, however I get the following error:

tom@ubuntu:~/Downloads/rtmpdump-2.3$ make INC=-I/usr/local/ssl/include/ LDFLAGS=-L/usr/local/ssl/lib

Can you please give an indication where it does go wrong?

Thanks!

Which version of Ubuntu is installed?

Ubuntu 11.04 it is

No need to compile RTMPDump v2.3 yourself.
It's in the 11.04 repo.

Code:

sudo apt-get install rtmpdump

Re: RTMPDump - how do I compile source code in Linux like Ubuntu?

thank you mr, that worked!

Re: RTMPDump - how do I compile source code in Linux like Ubuntu?

For Ubuntu linux users, you can add this PPA to get the latest rtmpdump version. :D

How to compile rtmpdump with KSV patches in Ubuntu 13.04
Download rtmpdump from git://git.ffmpeg.org/rtmpdump

Code:

git clone git://git.ffmpeg.org/rtmpdump

Install dependencies

Code:

sudo apt-get install build-essential gcc make subversion libssl-dev

Download KSV patch from https://github.com/K-S-V/Scripts/releases/tag/v2.4. Extract the archive and put the Patch.diff file into the folder with rtmpdump sources. Apply the KSV patch:

Code:

patch -p0 -i Patch.diff

If rtmpdump is already installed via sudo apt-get install, then do the following:

Code:

rtmpdump installed

cd librtmp

make

sudo cp librtmp.so.0 /lib

cd ..

Compile and install rtmpdump

Code:

make SYS=posix

sudo make install
