server trick?

(http://stream-recorder.com/forum/showthread.php?t=11375)

It seems that the mediadirect guys have implemented another trick in order to block channel viewing outside their website. Tested on different servers (fms15, fms30) same result: choppy audio recording (with -v parameter) or no recording at all (without it). Choppy audio in VLC 2.0.0, crash in VLC 2.1.0 nightly.
The command:

Code:

rtmpdump -v -r "rtmp://fms30.mediadirect.ro:1935/live7/_definst_" -a "live7/_definst_?id=0&publisher=2" -f "WIN 11,1,102,55" -W "http://dev.dolcetv.ro/player_test/player.swf" -p "http://dev.dolcetv.ro/" --live -y "nationaltv_low?id=0&publisher=2" -o test.flv

Do they actually intend for this to happen, or it's just some sort of flaw?

it looks like they are using an audio codec feature which faad and ffmpeg aac decoder do not support well.

so they could be messing with something.

playing in mplayer i get lots of:

FAAD: Failed to decode frame: Gain control not yet implemented
FAAD: Failed to decode frame: Bitstream value not allowed by specification
FAAD: Failed to decode frame: Bitstream value not allowed by specification

and using ffmpeg aac decoder:

[aac @ 012537d0]960/120 MDCT window is not implemented

vlc uses faad/ffaac so its hard to fix atm.

no problem use mplayer 0.0.9.0 (MPlayer Sherpya-SVN-r29355-4.5.0)

Code:

rtmpdump -r "rtmp://fms30.mediadirect.ro:1935/live7/_definst_" -a "live7/_definst_?id=0&publisher=2" -f "WIN 11,2,202,228" -W "http://dev.dolcetv.ro/player_test/player.swf" -p "http://dev.dolcetv.ro/" -y "nationaltv?id=0&publisher=2" -v | "C:\PROGRA~1\MPlayer\mplayer.exe" - -cache 8192

Code:

[aac @ 0x1caf1d0]960/120 MDCT window is not implemented. Update your FFmpeg vers

ion to the newest one from SVN. If the problem still occurs, it means that your

file has a feature which has not been implemented.If you want to help, upload a

sample of this file to ftp://upload.ffmpeg.org/MPlayer/incoming/ and contact the

 ffmpeg-devel mailing list.

It is a problem because my version is this one:-
MPlayer SVN-r34842-4.5.2 (C) 2000-2012 MPlayer Team

Where is this one:- MPlayer Sherpya-SVN-r29355-4.5.0 ?

Thanks for that.:)
With Linux I can download the file with RTMPDump and convert the audio using MEncoder Sherpya-SVN-r29355-4.5.0 and WINE.
Like this:-

Code:

mencoder test.flv -of lavf -ovc copy -oac lavc -lavcopts aglobal=1:acodec=libfaac:abitrate=64 -o foo.mkv

I don't have sound issues on Ubuntu linux with those channels on VLC 1.1.12. But I have sound issues with this VLC version on Ukrainian Sport 1 & 2 channels which is solved on VLC 2.0.2. ;-)

It certainly works. I wonder what's gotten into these guys with this particular AAC audio encoding, the same thing with VLC rejecting the audio happened in the case of Digi24 (an info channel) which made me actually consider browser broadcast instead of launching rtmpdump+VLC.

Code:

http://www.digi24.ro/static_dev/public_theme_v3/mediaplayer/player.swf?file=digi24live&type=rtmp&streamer=rtmpe://82.76.39.75:80/digi24edge&stretching=full&displayclick=fullscreen&autostart=true

Thanks for the MPlayer tip.

because they are morons. IIRC many videos served by mediadirect.ro also have freezing frames problem.

Hi
The aac codec used in the downloaded flv files from nationaltv.ro is shown by MediaInfo to be:-
"Codec ID : 10".
It seems that modern versions of FFplay and VLC and MPlayer can't play it but older versions of VLC and MPlayer can play it OK. :confused:
Is this because it's an "old" codec that libavcodec have deliberately dropped, or is it a libavcodec "regression"?
Or is there something wrong with their equipment at nationaltv.ro?
Any ideas?

Code:

FFmpeg/libavcodec audio decoders

[aac @ 0x8c5e500]960/120 MDCT window is not implemented.

Update your FFmpeg version to the newest one from Git.

If the problem still occurs, it means that your file has a feature which has not been implemented.
