You can also use RTMPSRV to find all necessary parameters!

Code:

rtmpdump -r "rtmpe://fms.1B42.edgecastcdn.net/001B42/vault/videoclips/shortfilms/" -a "001B42/vault/videoclips/shortfilms/" -f "WIN 10,3,183,5" -W "http://www.bigflix.com/apache_file/flash/Player.swf?f=1318429593051" -p "http://www.bigflix.com/home/short-films/the-last-battle/9024" -y "mp4:the_last_battle.mp4?e=1318443570" -o mp4_the_last_battle.flv

Re: bigflix.com: How to download free streaming movies from Adobe Flash Player(RTMPE


 
Replay Media Catcher, CooJah, Ripblade, Orbit Downloader, StreamTransport are all useless in downloading Bigflix movies. TubeDigger/GetFLV works but is expensive. Screen and video grabbers/capturers work but the videos also come with the irritating buffer pauses as a result. Too much video editing needed later to make it run one piece without long pauses as the screen capture grabbers grab all frames from screen with buffer pauses. I tried using Hex, Process, OpenSSl, RumpDump method too but it didn't go well with me. Too technical as despite running CMD as admin, I would get either access denied msg or CMD wouldn't take needed commands for dump. This is for strictly server setters/tech experts.

Best and simplest is install Windows .Net framework_v4.0.30319. Then use RTMPexplorer. Just type in video url. If it fails initially keep repasting the url and refreshing it. Refreshing the url on browser [use your default browser for best results] or restarting rtmpexplorer if needed. Eventually it will work. It will work best if your net connection is faster [also imp to avoid a time out/or net lag leading to incomplete download]. It is very easy to use. Even a 3 year old could run it. Just place rtmpexplorer in same folder as RTMPdump, pmdump, rtmpsrv etc. It basically operates off rtmpserv on it's own. Good luck.

Thanks.

RTMPexplorer worked well and combined all manual processes of using rtmpdeump/pmdump well. But it doesn't work without installing .Net framework v4.0.30319. I downloaded a stand alone version from microsoft and installed the same and then rtmpexplorer worked. I think latest flashplayer should also be installed just to be safe.

I got a full DL after 2 incomplete interruptions [timeout/slow lag]. It fails a lot at launch sometimes so rehitting/refreshing/restarting is needed initially but it works so beautifully once it gets a stream. Fast net connection and working it off your default web browser are the only requisites. It sniffs faster from browsers designated by you as your default ones. For example if you have set IE or Firefox as default browser it will be hard to sniff off Chrome. So these are the only technical aspects that need consideration. Mostly common sense stuff.

I had a couple of scares due to incomplete downloads on account of timeout/netlags. You need less traffic [so a late night DL needed] or faster high end net connection to avoid these lags. I just need to know how to resume a timeout download as currently it restarts from scratch and avoids resume. It says I should resume download but I don't know what commands/process does the same? Not an issue with unlimited net package but for people with limited download contracts, it would help know how to resume stopped DL to avoid overusing their accounts.

Thanks for an excellent suggestion. Despite it's drawbacks it is the best option over expensive softwares like TubeDigger, GetFLV [both work well but are expensive to buy], complex rtmp dumps processes among others. Most recommended softwares simply don't make the cut. Plenty of them download pre-loading ads and miss the main rtmp movie sniff [StreamTransport, CooJah + Blader, Rip Tiger, Orbit Downloader, Krojam etc.]. Replay Media Catcher fails to live to it's billing as it detects the stream, but abandons the download as it runs up against a wall of protection watermark. Video capturing screen grabbers work well but it leaves you with a video grab full of buffering pauses in runtime as they do a frame by frame duplication of the whole capture as it plays off screen. This rtmpexplorer is so damn easy to use and so best without spending any extra dime. Just takes some time, patience and pestering with slow net connection is all.

On a side note I found increasing buffer settings helped download better and faster despite same netlags than default settings of 50:4.
