Problem Recording Flash .FLV stream video from NBC Sports (RTMP protocol)

Does anyone know how to save this video:

Code:

http://video.nbcsports.com/player/?id=53489

I used URL Snooper, and it looks like the important URL is:

Code:

http://video.nbcuni.com/nbcsports/smil/64_20AF407C_5799D_B118F_DA000_3BA864B05.smil

But that is not the URL for the video. It contains the following:

HTML Code:

<smil><head><meta base="" /> <layout><root-layout width="384" 

height="288" /></layout></head><body><switch><video 

src="nbcu/nbcsports/64_20AF407C_5799D_B118F_DA000_3BA864B05_0500.flv" 

system-bitrate="500000" /><video 

src="nbcu/nbcsports/64_20AF407C_5799D_B118F_DA000_3BA864B05_0300.flv" 

system-bitrate="300000" /><video 

src="nbcu/nbcsports/64_20AF407C_5799D_B118F_DA000_3BA864B05_0150.flv" 

system-bitrate="150000" /><video 

src="nbcu/nbcsports/64_20AF407C_5799D_B118F_DA000_3BA864B05_0035.flv" 

system-bitrate="35000" /><ref 

src="nbcu/nbcsports/64_20AF407C_5799D_B118F_DA000_3BA864B05_0500.flv" 

/></switch></body></smil>

Note that it has partial URLs for the FLV file, but I can't figure out the complete URL. I tried:

Code:

http://video.nbcuni.com/nbcu/nbcsports/64_20AF407C_5799D_B118F_DA000_3BA864B05_0500.flv

But that does not work. Can anyone figure it out?

Re: Need help from an expert

For this I would use ZDSoft Screen Recorder. I think you can download the last freeware version from download.com or this site. If you try it and need more help just reply or read my thread on this program it is in the same category.

Re: Need help from an expert

Is there any way to save the FLV file? Using a recorder would result in quality loss. I would like to save the original FLV file.

Re: Need help from an expert

Sorry I don't know but this screen recorder I use all the time even some movie clips that I had no idea how I could download. Also, it records the sound and actually the quality is really good!

Does the guru know the answer?

Re: Problem Recording Flash .FLV video from NBC Sports

nbc uses rtmp ...
no known way to save rtmp yet.
only screen recorder.

add rtmp;netstream;flv to your also search for box in urlsnooper
gives you somethings like...

rtmp://cp23371.edgefcs.net:1935/ondemand
nbcu/nbcsports/64_20AF407C_5799D_B118F_DA000_3BA864B05_0150.flv

so add them together....

Code:

rtmp://cp23371.edgefcs.net:1935/ondemand/nbcu/nbcsports/64_20AF407C_5799D_B118F_DA000_3BA864B05_0150.flv

and it works in 'flvplayer' program :)

enjoy.
