Catch and forward streams TUTORIAL => $50 reward

Catch and forward streams TUTORIAL => $50 reward

 

Hi,

I've spent days trying to find a simple tutorial on how to catch rtmp streams, with fresh and updated contents/tools. I couldn't find a recent step by step tutorial for newbies with a great summary. I'm trying another method right here, stream-recorder and its great community are my last hope to get a relevant tutorial :)

I offer a $50 Amazon gift card for anyone providing a small tutorial with the following:

1. how to identify the rtmp stream address/port/parameters from mips.tv, ucaster.eu? ex: regarder(.)me/splus/streamer.php?id=sebastien2
a. which tools do you use? Wireshark, other
b. the good rtmpdump command to catch the stream
c. how to redirect the rtmp stream to my own rtmp server (forward)

2. how to catch a stream from a TV channel?
a. the best tools for catching the raw stream on Linux
b. how to forward the caught stream to my own rtmp server

3. what kind of server / hosting would you advise to broadcast the rtmp streams to ~100K visitors during 2-3 hours ?

I have good skills in Linux admin but I'm a newbie to stream recording :cool:

Why do I offer a gift card? Because I've been reading hundreds of pages and I still can't find a relevant "for dummies" tutorial. People spending their time helping writing such contents deserve to be rewarded.

Feel free to send a message before you start, I will tell you if anyone else has already started writing the tutorial. Of course, the tutorial can be written down here as a post answer available for everybody if admins wish to :)

Thanks,
Tom

hi
you can use
ngrep with libap (it works too on windows)
this example is for janjua.tv (your example doesn't work when i wrote this post)
it works like mips.tv .....
1) in administrator terminal
with wlan0 is interface connected maybe eth0.....

2)
load the page
http://www.cloud-tivu.net/Blog/dmax-...eaming-estero/

3) when the video start stop ngrep with Ctrl +C

4) read janjua.txt with gedit you have something like this

5)you have all that you want to use rtmpdump

on linux i use
livestreamer youtube-dl rtmpdump ngrep gdb(read flash memory to find token) virtualbox(simulate mobile device) .....

for the other question i don't know

I have not answered all your questions, but that does not matter, because I do not want your offerings ;)

Thank you Biezom, you rock :)

I've tried your method with ngrep on stream stream365(.)in/live13.html with the right network interface wlan0 and I only get :

after a few seconds of video stream read.

Do you have an idea?

Re: Catch and forward streams TUTORIAL => $50 reward

 

a) in a first administrator terminal


b) in a second administrator terminal

c)load your video (it does not start, it's normal)
d) rtmpsrv generate a code like


with in red some parameters that works just once and limited in time
so when you have this code, for the rest you have to act quickly
e) copy the code
f) close your video
g) stop rtmpsrv (CTRL +C)
h ) in the first administrator terminal
i) in an user terminal paste the code and run

It works perfectly. You are AWESOME biezom, your post is clear and in the target. THANK YOU :) ;)

Re: Catch and forward streams TUTORIAL => $50 reward

 

I've been trying the same method, working for another stream, but unsuccessful for getting the rtmpdump command of regarder(.)me/splus/streamer.php?id=remi1

Could anyone briefly explain why this rtmp stream can't be caught the same way?

Thanks++

port 1935 in the previous case it was 1735

step a)
step h)

Re: Catch and forward streams TUTORIAL => $50 reward

 

OK I'm going to review my "iptable book" to understand those port redirects :D

Re: Catch and forward streams TUTORIAL => $50 reward

 

Hi Biezom, would you help me again for 5 minutes?

Now I can get the streams using rtmpdump - I learnt thanks to you - , what's the easiest way to push the caught stream to another rtmp server? Does ffmpeg do the trick?

Thank you
