www.ustream.tv: watch Kevin Trudeau Show with MPlayer, VLC


 
Hi, I want to watch the Kevin Trudeau Show (ustream.tv) every day with MPlayer or VLC without looking at the CPU goes to 30% to 100% every time I'm watching it live

Links:
http://www.ustream.tv/channel/kevin-trudeau-show
http://www.ustream.tv/channel/522259

I've found a related script to do that job but it does not work
gist: 634461 - download live video from ustream using rtmpdump.- GitHub (by fuba)
tech memo / Textt

I have tried to imitate Hacker News | For Linux users wanting to watching without using browser + flash, using mplayer... without success :(

This is the information that has been taken during the time that the show went on air live http://rghost.net/4522689 (files, links and wget logs of the http_headers)

The wanted stream(s)
rtmp://flash72.ustream.tv/ustreamVideo/522259
rtmp://flash73.ustream.tv/ustreamVideo/522259
rtmp://flash77.ustream.tv/ustreamVideo/522259

The live stream begins on every Monday - Friday 10am - 11am PT (Pacific Time Zone).

The live stream started 48 minutes ago (for the record)

Edit:
I've found this url today: rtmp://flash60.ustream.tv/ustreamVideo/522259

This is the information that has been taken during the time that the show went on air live http://rghost.net/4686397 (I've downloaded everything that was on this page)

How did you download the stream? Just used the URL above in MPlayer or VLC?

I use Replay Media Catcher 4 for downloading/capturing videos from UStream.TV

I've found rtmp://flashXX.ustream.tv/ustreamVideo/522259 by reading the file 522259.amf?pageUrl=http:%2F%2Fwww.ustream.tv%2Fchannel%2Fkev in-trudeau-show&locale=en_US&encoded=1 with a Hex Editor.

Just curious regarding the perl script you linked to. I also experience where it does not work on every ustream page. Some pages it says "no video url at xxxxx.pl line 32", I tried hacking on the source but can't get it to work. The problem has something to do with this part.

Code:
sub get_video_url {
    my $url = shift;
    my $amf_bin = get($url);

    if ($amf_bin =~ m|(rtmp://[^/]+/ustreamVideo/(\d+))|m) {
        return ($1, $2);
    }

Come'on, Come'on, !! the show is about to end in 30 minutes :P
P.S. I believe that every ustream.tv page with Live Stream can be tested.

Huh? My post was just a general question if anyone knew why that perl script doesn't seem to work on all live ustream channels.

rtmpdump command line (to save the stream locally):

Code:
rtmpdump -r "rtmp://ustream.fc.llnwd.net:1935/ustream/test/" -a "ustream/test/" -y "ustream@llnw_1_522259_live_1" -W "http://cdn1.ustream.tv/swf/4/viewer.rsl.568.swf" -o ustream@llnw_1_522259_live_1.flv --live

It is not working for me.
I'm trying every channel ID that I find at this page, and I can't make it work.

I'm even changing the .swf to the current player, but all I get is:
Code:

That's all.

Edit: It is working with ktradio live video
(I'll continue on reporting concerning to other videos)
Thank you, nullacht.
