TwitchTV - Unable to get "subscriber" only rtmp?

Since today, I've been unable to get working rtmp links for subscriber only stream qualities. Is this something other people are having issues with as well?

Here are two stream examples, anyone able to get working rtmp for 1080p/720p? And if so, how?

Thanks in advance!

Re: TwitchTV - Unable to get "subscriber" only rtmp?

Something I've noticed, is that very very rarely you get an rtmp that says the following:

"D:\Program Files (x86)\Python\Scripts\rtmpdump.exe" -r "rtmp://live-cdn.jtvnw.net/live/akamai4_247@24873" --swfVfy "http://www-cdn.jtvnw.net/widgets/live_embed_player.r6c7c99529b6a0769b8359789756d8f8 221a62c14.swf?channel=tsmtournaments&referer=&user Agent=&channel=tsmtournaments" -v -o - | "C:\\Program Files (x86)\\VideoLAN\\VLC\\vlc.exe" -

When that happens, the stream works. But the majority of the time, you get one that says:

"D:\Program Files (x86)\Python\Scripts\rtmpdump.exe" -r "rtmp://199.9.255.201/app/jtv_LV3RpK8AjT06jB9v" -j "" --swfVfy "http://www-cdn.jtvnw.net/widgets/live_embed_player.r6c7c99529b6a0769b8359789756d8f8 221a62c14.swf?channel=tsmtournaments&referer=&user Agent=&channel=tsmtournaments" -v -o - | "C:\\Program Files (x86)\\VideoLAN\\VLC\\vlc.exe" -

And it refuses to work.

So whenever the rtmp is an ip instead of "rtmp://live-cdn.jtvnw.net/live/akamai4_247@24873", the stream doesn't work.

Is there a way to force the rtmp you get to be non ip based?

Edit: On a side note, I only ever manage to get that very rare rtmp when the stream has tons of viewers.

A memory dump reveals that the HD stream info is not available, from a non-subscriber page. Notice difference between 480p and 720p

Code:

Anything we can do about that though?

As mentioned, sometimes I was able to get a working hash for 720p even though I'm not a subscriber.

For me its working if I use this

Code:

-r "rtmp://live-cdn.jtvnw.net/live/akamai4_247@24873" --swfVfy "http://www-cdn.jtvnw.net/widgets/live_embed_player.r6c7c99529b6a0769b8359789756d8f8221a62c14.swf?channel=tsmtournaments&referer=&userAgent=&channel=tsmtournaments" -v -o - | "C:\\Program Files (x86)\\VideoLAN\\VLC\\vlc.exe" -

Thats what I've been saying... Sometimes you're able to get an rtmp that isn't IP based, at which point the stream works. But most of the time you get an IP based rtmp url, and the stream won't play.
