Error when starting RTMPSUCK on Ubuntu 10.4 LTS: Failed to start RTMP server, exiting

Re: Error when starting RTMPSUCK on Ubuntu 10.4 LTS: Failed to start RTMP server, exi

I guess what I mean, to be clear is that I get no syntax, just streaming on 0.0.0.0:1935 and nothing else

Re: Error when starting RTMPSUCK on Ubuntu 10.4 LTS: Failed to start RTMP server, exi

you say its hulu?
What stream exactly?

Re: Error when starting RTMPSUCK on Ubuntu 10.4 LTS: Failed to start RTMP server, exi

trying to dl he-man cartoons for my boys

I think it's their stream, meaning they aren't pulling it from another site.

Well something is definitely up, i suggest creating a shared folder.
I just visited hulu and downloaded Ep 01 Season 01 of he-man.
My syntax via rtmpsrv

Code:

user2@homeserver:/home/schenere/Public/flashstreams$ rtmpsrv

My directory flashstreams is shared so switching to user2 within there and running rtmpsrv (which is installed system wide) does what you see above

[SOLVED] Error when starting RTMPSUCK on Ubuntu 10.4 LTS

Works like a charm now!

2 issues caused the problem:

1) I failed to end the process with Ctrl-C before starting a new process, which caused a failure to bind.

2) The lack of a shared folder causes rtmpsrv/rtmpsuck to sit idle with the following message:

I hope this thread helps someone, has certainly been an adventure for me...lol

Glad it finally worked out for you

Indeed, but setting up a shared folder in Fedora is a royal pain compared to Ubuntu, guess it reflects the differences in design philosopies between the two distros.
