next.kdhx.org: Downloading file behind rtmp stream

 

Hi everyone,

A radio station that used to post .pls links for the prior two weeks of programming has switched to a flash player that has no more functionality than Stop and Start. I wanted to be able to download the show's mp3 file and then play it through Winamp which has the seek bar amongst other things.

I am just beginning the jump into streaming audio and though I should post before getting too entangled with what is and is not possible in my situation.

Using URL Snooper I gathered the following for a certain show:
Looking at View page source for the web page in which the flash player is embedded:
url: 'mp3:archives/1281978625.mp3'
netConnectionUrl: 'rtmp://184.73.202.215/archives'

I am not sure if this is all of what is needed to construct the URL for downloading the mp3 file or not but it seemed 'useful'.

The web site in question is located here:
"http://next.kdhx.org/play/radio-shows/gabriels-tin-pan-alley"

Thanks for the help; I realize this question is redundant to some degree, but a push in the right direction is all I am hoping for.

Steve

Have you tried to record rtmp:// streams with any RTMP Flash stream recorders like Replay Media Catcher or freeware CooJah, StreamTransport?

Re: next.kdhx.org: Downloading file behind rtmp stream

 

StreamTransport was able to give me the complete rtmp URL but crashed when I tried to download the file. Is there some conversion possible of the rtmp URL to an http link so that I might try the download in a download manager such as Free Download Manager? What is the rtmp link pointing to, an actual location on a server or simply a temporary stream created for the sake of playback but the actual file resides at a location having nothing to do with the various domains and folders within the rtmp link?

A link to a more current show: rtmp://184.73.202.215/archives/mp3:archives/1282505998.mp3

Thanks again, Steve.

rtmpgw is a server for streaming media content from RTMP out to HTTP. It is a command line utility.

But it is probably better to use other RTMP Flash stream recorders. There are many of them... and some RTMP recorders are free.

I came across NetXfer which will cost me once the trial period runs out but does a great job of taking a link like the one below and downloading it just like Free Downloader Manager does with regular http addresses.

rtmp://184.73.202.215/archives/mp3:archives/1283629244.mp3

It has the additional, and in my case very needed, feature of being able to import a list of addresses from a text file. This allows me to generate link lists in Excel and then once a week import them into NetXfer for downloading the shows of the prior week that I am interested in all in one overnight operation.

Thanks for your help Stream Recorder.

Instead of generating link lists in Excel or freeware OpenOffice Calc, you may try to set up URLs on the "Schedule" tab of the download "Properties" of NetXfer .
