Can streaming videos on sportsnet.ca be captured? (rtmp:// flv from flash player)

Can streaming videos on sportsnet.ca be captured? (rtmp:// flv from flash player)

 

using orbitdownloader i am able to get the link of the video, but it seems the server wont allow a connection to download off it.

http://www.sportsnet.ca/video/popup/#

or specifically this video. RTMP can be tricky as ive heard but this one can find the video just not able to download it from their server.

Hey C1c2,welcome to the board!

With regards to this, I tried it with TWO Programs.

WM Recorder

And Replay Media Catcher

I was only able to Record the Commercial With WMR, BUT using Replay Media Catcher I was able to record the entire thing with no problem.

Check it out and let me know what you think. :D

Hi Stream Ripper, thanks for the welcome :) and thanking for taking some time out to help me out. much appreciated.

Well i tried using Replay Media Catcher version 2.30 but it would only record the commercial and then 14kb of the actual video covering basketball. It stops at 14kb and then clicks finished.

Could there be something wrong with some settings? I looked around but didnt see anything that might be wrong. Even reinstalled the program again.

So you caught the whole 1 min basketball commentary? I thought i got it but when i checked it turned out i had just downloaded another commercial on the page. Not sure what is wrong with my way of recording.

help :(

Hey there, worry not, we're here to help. :-)

Simply question...what Operating System are you currently using? XP, vista, something else?...

Thanks

thanks for the quick reply again. I am using Windows XP with SP2. PC.

Re: Can videos on this site be captured?

 

Replay Media Catcher works fine for me with on Windows XP SP2.

After Media Catcher starts capturing RTMP flash video stream from sportsnet.ca, you can try to close the browser window.

What kind of error do you get when capturing flash videos from sportsnet.ca ?

Re: Can streaming videos on sportsnet.ca be captured? (rtmp:// flv from flash player)

 

I will start Replay Media Catcher, and it will start to download the file.



Then it will say it is finished after 19 kb :confused:



If i play the small file it just says "streaming" and nothing happens.

This is pretty weird. I will send it to the developer.

This stream is playing in your browser plays without any problem, right?

What kind of firewall, anti-spyware, anti-malware do you have?

Re: Can streaming videos on sportsnet.ca be captured? (rtmp:// flv from flash player)

 

Yes, the stream plays fine in the browser. Im wondering if it could be the router.. but Orbit works fine. I even put Replay Media catcher on the windows xp firewall exception list.

I am currently just using AVG and windows firewall. It seems to be this way on all files on that site for me. I even uninstalled my video software and then reinstalled it thinking it might be a video card issue.

On a side note

if recording on this site does work for people if someone could record this stream for me:

http://www2.sportsnet.ca/video/mma/2...att_Serra_Tour

and throw it onto megaupload or something and provide a link to it. :D It will probably be like 20 megs or something (4 min long). Ive tried to get with so many tries but just cant seem to down it. I would use a screencapture device but the quality is already low.

thanks for the replies people.

hmm im throwing everything i can think of at this site. :mad:

I tried URL Snooper. It couldnt find the link.

This is the html link

With Orbit Downloader this is what i can get. The actual link to the video.

======================

======================

this seems to be the full path to the video but browsers cant download rtmp it seems as firefox is telling me it cant read rtmp. IExplorer cant find it.

FLV Recorder can't find the video either.

Replay Media Catcher finds the link but will only download 1kb of it.

it reads it as this


======================

Target Path: SCA_MMA_TOUR_08_04_19_426FA4CA

Downloading RTMP stream:
RTMP App: rtmp://38.99.151.50/sportsnet/
Media Path: SCA_MMA_TOUR_08_04_19
Audio Received: 0 kb.
Video Received: 0 kb.

======================

:confused: :confused: :confused:

If i go through a proxy (thinking that possibly a regional issue) I get:

"Hello, you either have JavaScript turned off or an old version of Macromedia's Flash Player. Get the latest flash player. "

I have one other shot at this... and thats to unplug the router and put the modem straight into the computer in case somehow the router is creating some type of firewall not allowing this.

If you guys can save this.. there has to be a way!!!!! arghhh!!!!!
