How to install and use TubeMaster++ in Linux (like Ubuntu 9.10) to record streaming


 
TubeMaster++ is a GUI application for Linux/Windows/Mac OS that allows to download RTMP and HTTP streams. Requires Java.

First of all download TubeMaster++ for Linux (Red Hat, Debian, Mandrake)
- Tested on Ubuntu 9.04, 9.10 (Debian).
- Tested on Fedora 11 (Red Hat).
- Tested on Mandriva 2009 (Mandrake).
Filename : tm++.linux.tar.gz (MD5 Checksum : 633ad3e372ff8d6504ad05547b094115).
Version : 1.5

How to install TubeMaster++ in Linux:
  • Download & Install Java SE Runtime Environment (JRE). (32Bits, NOT x64!) I used Ubuntu Software Center to install JRE.
  • Download & Install Java SE Development Kit (JDK). (32Bits, NOT x64!). I used Ubuntu Software Center to install Open JDK.
  • Download & Install LibPcap (Installed by Default). I used Synaptic packet manager to make sure LibPcap is installed in my Ubuntu 9.10 (Synaptic allows you to install and remove package)
  • Download & Install JPcap Library. I download the .deb package, opened it in the default package manager and installed it.
  • Make sure that "libjpcap.so" is in the "/usr/lib" directory
  • Download & Install FFMpeg with FFPlay. I typed the following in Terminal to install them in Ubuntu 9.10:
    Code:
    sudo apt-get install ffmpeg
    sudo apt-get install libavcodec-unstripped-52
  • Unpack tm++.linux.tar.gz (you can use tar -xvf tm++.linux.tar.gz in the Terminal)
  • Set the execute-flag for tm++.sh:
    Code:
    chmod +X tm++.sh
    Otherwise you will get the" tm++.sh: command not found" error.

How to use TubeMaster in Linux:
  • Run tm++.sh (you must have root rights):
    Code:
    sudo ./tm++.sh
  • Open your browser and navigate to a web-page you would like to record from. Play an online audio/video stream.

Hi.

I am unsure as to how to do this portion of the above instructions:

Quote:
[*]Unpack tm++.linux.tar.gz (you can use tar -xvf tm++.linux.tar.gz in the Terminal)[*]Set the execute-flag for tm++.sh:
Code:
chmod +X tm++.sh
Otherwise you will get the" tm++.sh: command not found" error.[/list]
How to use TubeMaster in Linux:
  • Run tm++.sh (you must have root rights):
    Code:
    sudo ./tm++.sh
  • Open your browser and navigate to a web-page you would like to record from. Play an online audio/video stream.
BTW. I'm using 32 bit Ubuntu 10.10.

Thank you.

Open the terminal and go to the directory where you have saved "tm++.tar.gz". Then try to unpack using tar. Then go to the directory with tm++.sh and run "chmod +X tm++.sh". Then you can run TubeMaster using "sudo ./tm++.sh".

Thank you for your prompt reply.

How do I use Terminal go to the directory which holds tm++.sh?

Can I just drag said directory into the Terminal window to enter the required path?

Thanks again.

I unpacked tm++.linux.tar.gz. Doing so resulted in a folder named TubeMaster++.

In said folder were the following items:

- a folder named lang
- a document named Install *HowTo.txt
- and a .jar archive named tm++.jar

These wasn't anything named tm++.sh

I then ran and got the following results in Terminal:

Code:
p4@ubuntu:~$ cd TubeMaster++
p4@ubuntu:~/TubeMaster++$ chmod +X tm++.sh
chmod: cannot access `tm++.sh': No such file or directory
p4@ubuntu:~/TubeMaster++$
What am I doing wrong?

EDIT:

*The last part of the instructions in this document are:

"=----- (2) -> Once all System Requirements are installed go to TubeMaster++ folder.
=----- (3) -> Run tm++.jar (You must be ROOT !).
=----- (4) -> If you have any questions, suggestions, or if you find some bugs, please contact me at : ggsofts[at]gmail.com"

How would one run Run tm++.jar and do so as root?

I've e-mailed this ^ question to ggsofts[at]gmail.com as well.

Re: How to install and use TubeMaster++ in Linux (like Ubuntu 9.10) to record streami


 
You're right. There is no tm++.sh in the latest version and you don't need to use chmod.

Just run tm++.sh as an admin, for example:
Code:
sudo ./tm++.sh

Here's the e-mail I sent...

Hi.

I'm attempting to install and run TubeMaster++ under 32 bit Ubuntu 10.10 but I've hit a snag.

The last part of your instructions are:

"=----- (2) -> Once all System Requirements are installed go to TubeMaster++ folder.
=----- (3) -> Run tm++.jar (You must be ROOT !).
=----- (4) -> If you have any questions, suggestions, or if you find some bugs, please contact me at : ggsofts[at]gmail.com"

Via a step-by-step explanation, how would one run Run tm++.jar and do so as root?

BTW. I'll post your reply in this thread:

http://stream-recorder.com/forum/ins...html#post23384

Thank you.

--------

...And the reply I've just received:

"Hello,

The .sh script was replaced by the JAR archive.
So you can try to run it with "./tm++.jar" or "java -jar tm++.jar" (AS ROOT).

Regards,

GgSofts."

--------

So using the root Terminal I tried this...

Code:
root@ubuntu:/home/p4# cd TubeMaster++
root@ubuntu:/home/p4/TubeMaster++# ./tm++.jar
TubeMaster++ detected operating system : Linux
java.io.FileNotFoundException: null/Errors.log (No such file or directory)

...and It still doesn't work. :(

EDIT: I just tried to put the following in a new post but this forum won't let me do so. :confused:

Code:

sudo: ./tm++.jar: command not found

You need to navigate to the directory where tm++.jar is first.

Try to ask the developer about the other errors.

I've e-mailed GgSofts a link to this thread.

Re: How to install and use TubeMaster++ in Linux (like Ubuntu 9.10) to record streami


 
I've received the following reply...

"Hello,

hmm it seems you have a permission problem. The "null" value youe see is the system doesn't want to give the current directory for some obscure permission reason.
I joined a new JAR file to this email, can you replace your tm++.jar by this one and tell me what happen ?"

...and I tried the new tm++.jar file which GgSofts just sent me as an e-mail attachment after first checking for its executable bit and seeing this...



...and then getting this Terminal output:

Code:
p4@ubuntu:~$ cd TubeMaster++
p4@ubuntu:~/TubeMaster++$ sudo ./tm++.jar
sudo: ./tm++.jar: command not found
p4@ubuntu:~/TubeMaster++$ sudo java -jar tm++.jar

OK then. I've just read another e-mail from GgSofts...

"Hello,

Ok i understand what is happening, an exception is thrown just before we can write the error log. I need you to test
this new joined JAR archive and run it. Tell me what is displayed in your console. Thanks."

...and I downloaded the latest tm++.jar file he included as an e-mail attachment, put it into its TubeMaster++ folder, and after discovering that its executable bit was set like this...



...I ran/got this in Terminal:

Code:
p4@ubuntu:~$ cd TubeMaster++

EDIT:

I've just tried to capture what I believe to be an RTMP video stream (from cam4) via Firefox 3.6.12 but I don't know what I should click on in Firefox to initiate said capture.

As well, said RTMP video stream is not being automatically and temporarily cached in /tmp like regular streamed .flv files usually are.

RTMP streams are not cached.

Note that you can use rtmpsuck and rtmpsrv in Linux. See rtmpdump for more.

rtmpdump can be installed via Ubuntu's Synaptic Package Manager.

Unfortunately these instructions...

Ubuntu Manuals - How to use rtmpdump
http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/...tmpdump.1.html

...are replete with the hieroglyphic-Water-Buffalo-Lodge-secret-handshake-some-assembly-required-and-good-luck-with-that-Jack-command-line-convolutions which characterize the use of GNU/Linux at seemingly every other turn. :(

rtmpdump needs a GUI.
