RTMPE stream recording/downloading/capturing/ripping/saving

RTMPE stream recording/downloading/capturing/ripping/saving

 

I need to record/download/capture/rip/save RTMPE video streaming from Hulu, MTV, CBS and MySpace. Is RTMPE stream recording/downloading/capturing/ripping/saving possible at all? Are there any programs that don't mention anything about it on their web-sites, but still are able to handle the RTMPE protocol?

Re: RTMPE stream recording/downloading/capturing/ripping/saving

 

Adobe continues to threaten companies that develop software recording video streamed through the RTMPE protocol (because RTMPE recording presumably violates DMCA). Although this is pointless, because open source software rtmpdump 1.6 supporting RTMPE recording was spread all over the world.

Software allowing to find RTMPE URLs and download them

• Screen Capture tool such as Replay Video Capture
  
  rtmpdump (Windows, Linux, Mac OS, Android / Freeware) - command line utility that supports RTMPE streams and SWF verification. RTMPdump comes with 2 handy utilities: rtmpsrv and rtmpsuck.
  
  rtmpsrv allows to find RTMP and RTMPE parameters and start rtmpdump with them.
  
  rtmpsuck works like a proxy server and allows to capture RTMP / RTMPE streams and save them to your hard drive. It is recommended to use this tool in Linux like Ubuntu.
  
  And there is a GUI program for rtmpdump, rtmpsrv: RTMPexplorer (Windows/Freeware).
  
• GetFLV (Windows/Shareware) - RTMPE downloader (GUI) supporting SWF Verification.
  
• TubeDigger (Windows/Shareware) - RTMPE downloader and recorder (GUI) supporting SWF Verification.
  
• get-flash-videos (Windows, Linux, Mac OS / Freeware) - command line utility that uses rtmpdump to download RTMPE streams. Supports select web-sites only, but allows to download higher quality streams even if you have a slow internet connection.
  
• StreamTransport (Windows/Freeware) - RTMPE downloader (GUI) supporting SWF verification. Allows to find RTMPE URLs and download RTMPE streams.
  
• CooJah + Blader (Windows/Freeware) - RTMPE URL finder and downloader (GUI) supporting SWF verification.
  
  Coojah allows to find RTMPE URLs and other RTMPE parameters. You can start Blader from Coojah to download RTMPE streams.

Other software supporting secure RTMPE protocol

• NetTransport (Windows / Shareware) - allows to download RTMPE streams. The program can't find RTMPE URLs, nor does it allow you to enter any additional RTMPE parameters.
  
• Replay Media Catcher 4 / Jaksta (Windows / Shareware) allows to use rtmpdump as a plug-in. The program can find RTMPE URLs from playlists only, so the program can download few RTMPE streams.

Software that does NOT support secure RTMPE protocol anymore or that is not distributed officially anymore

• Replay Media Catcher 3.x (Windows / Shareware) - The latest versions doesn't support RTMPE streams anymore.
• Jaksta (Windows / Shareware) - The latest versions doesn't support RTMPE streams anymore.
• save2pc Pro + Extra Pack (Shareware/Windows) - The latest versions doesn't support RTMPE streams anymore.
• Hulu Video Downloader, ComedyCentral Grabber, MTV Grabber, CBS Grabber (Windows / Freeware) - Not distributed officially anymore.

And of course you may use screen video capture software to record anything you see on your screen.

rtmpe:// recording works for me on mtv.com using rtmpdump:
Replay Media Catcher (with rtmpe plugin) failed on mtv rtmpe mp4 streams. RMC works on some rtmpe:// flv streams .

Jaksta failed on the mtv rtmpe mp4 streams.

did not try other downloaders.
hope this helps!

What software do you use to find RTMPE stream URLs?

Adobe forced the developers of both programs to remove support of RTMPE stream downloading/recording/capturing/ripping/saving.

Re: RTMPE stream recording/downloading/capturing/ripping/saving

 

unfortunately i could not find any way to find RTMPE urls. Replay Media Catcher (RMC) can detect them, but does not report the stream url in the error message.

Re: RTMPE stream recording/downloading/capturing/ripping/saving

 

Is there any way I can ask how you got rtmpdump WIN32 1.6 to work? I can't even open it. I'd really rather not partition off my hard drive to use Linux just for this.

Re: RTMPE stream recording/downloading/capturing/ripping/saving

 

rtmpdump is a command line utility. You need to open Command Prompt first and then launch it from there.

Okay, thank you!

One more question. Am I doing something wrong here?

I want to download this link rtmpe://fms-edge02.omroep.nl/3v12/MP4:41944313.mp4 so i typed it in plus -o output.flv

It download about 7% and then stopped so I tried it several times making sure I typed everything correctly but everytime it says the stream isn't found. Are they on to me?

Re: RTMPE stream recording/downloading/capturing/ripping/saving

 

The only thing I can suggest is to use the --resume option:

Re: RTMPE stream recording/downloading/capturing/ripping/saving

 

I need to find something that can give me the URL's of the stream so that i can test this application, how would you go about finding out the stream URL and will rtmpdump record streams using SWF verification?
