RaceFansTV.com - How setup RMC4 plugin?


 
Hello,
i know how to download videos from racefanstv with tools such as rtmpexplorer and GetFLV. But. I would like to make Replay Media Catcher 4's plugin called "rtmpdump.exe" catch and download the streams because it is my favourite download tool. Please could anyone tell me how to setup the RMC4 settings (=rtmpdump settings mask) for this website? (Registration for this website is needed: it's FREE and FAST.)

testpage url:
_http://racefanstv.com/channels/highlights-and-general/various-classes/109926/

the crash video url would be something like this:
Code:

rtmpe://95.211.106.12:1935/niceVodServer/converted_work7//mp4:f34e115fa07d9faf3f26_338c351ea01d382bd026dbeac8a6f4fa.mp4
one working rtmpdump command line is this (powered by rtmpexplorer):
Code:

rtmpdump -r "rtmpe://95.211.106.12:1935/niceVodServer/converted_work7/" -a "niceVodServer/converted_work7/" -f "WIN 10,2,153,1" -W "http://racefanstv.com/flash/player_10.swf" -p "http://racefanstv.com/channels/highlights-and-general/various-classes/109926/" -y "mp4:f34e115fa07d9faf3f26_338c351ea01d382bd026dbeac8a6f4fa.mp4" -o mp4_f34e115fa07d9faf3f26_338c351ea01d382bd026dbeac8a6f4fa.flv
Maybe a screenshot of the RMC4 plugin settings would be helpful.
Thanks for help, i am new here!
Best, walker.

With rtmpexplorer i get 218808.609 kB / 1399.08 sec (99.9%) Download complete and with Getflv i get 106 MB (111.646.199 Bytes). Both video versions seem the same! :confused:

I don't think Replay Media Catcher 4 will allow to download RTMPE streams. And I can't test this stream, because it requires a subscription.

To set up rtmpdump.exe as a plug-in for RMC 4:
  1. Download rtmpdump and place rtmpdump.exe into the Replay Media Catcher folder in Program files.
  2. Go to Tools -> Settings -> Plug-ins
  3. Select the protocol
  4. Enter the domain name, videos from which will be downloaded with a plug-in
  5. Enter rtmpdump.exe as an executable
  6. Enter rtmpdump parameters. For example:
    Code:

    -r "{url}" -o "{file}"  --app "{app}" --flashVer "{flashVer}" --swfUrl "{swfUrl}" --tcUrl "{tcUrl}" --pageUrl "{pageUrl}" --playpath "{playPath}"

Thanks for screenshot. With your settings i get the above log. i guess that Replay Media Catcher 4 cannot download the stream with the rtmpdump plugin, although rtmpdump itself can download it.

RMC4 as GUI for rtmpdump never worked very well.. :(

I tried to use it and it appeared that some parameters are not passed to rtdmpump when using Replay Media Catcher 4.1.9 beta
Code:

rtmpdump.exe -r "rtmpe://95.211.106.12:1935/niceVodServer/converted_work7/f34e115fa07d9faf3f26_338c351ea01d382bd026dbeac8a6f4fa.mp4" -a "niceVodServer" -f "{flashVer}" -W "{swfUrl}" -p "{pageUrl}" -y "{playPath}" -o "C:\Users\Admin\Documents\My Streaming Media\f34e115fa07d9faf3f26_338c351ea01d382bd026dbeac8a6f4fa.flv"
Will try to find out why.

It appeared that Applian can't even extract some parameters from RTMPE streams, because it would violate DMCA :(

So you need to fill the following parameters manually in order to download with Replay Media Catcher + rtmpdump:
Code:

-f "{flashVer}" -W "{swfUrl}" -p "{pageUrl}" -y "{playPath}"

@placebo
Try to use the following in Replay Media Catcher 4.1.9 beta
Code:

-r "{url}" -o "{file}"  --app "{app}" --flashVer "{flashVer}" --swfUrl "{swfUrl}" --tcUrl "{tcUrl}" --pageUrl "{pageUrl}" --playpath "{playPath}"
Then take a look into the log and you will see the following
Code:

rtmpdump.exe -r "rtmpe://95.211.106.12:1935/niceVodServer/converted_work7/f34e115fa07d9faf3f26_338c351ea01d382bd026dbeac8a6f4fa.mp4" -a "niceVodServer" -f "{flashVer}" -W "{swfUrl}" -p "{pageUrl}" -y "{playPath}" -o "C:\Users\Admin\Documents\My Streaming Media\f34e115fa07d9faf3f26_338c351ea01d382bd026dbeac8a6f4fa.flv"
As you can see
{flashVer}, {swfUrl}, {pageUrl}, and {playPath} variables are not passed to rtmpdump (because RMC is prohibited to decrypt secure streams and even URLs). So you need to fill them manually. For example:
replace "{flashVer}" with "WIN 10,2,153,1"
replace "{swfUrl}" with "http://racefanstv.com/flash/player_10.swf"

SR, i know now what you mean. :)
I have tested enough, and it doesnt work (and it doesnt make sense to use RMC4 in this case of protected streaming).
let's give up.

Replay Media Catcher4 isnt the greatest GUI for rtmpdump! ;)
Thanks anyway.

It is not the best GUI for protected RTMPE streams due to legal restrictions. It will download few RTMPE streams, since it can only get RTMPE URLs from playlists.

But RMC+rtmpdump can be used as an alternative way for downloading RTMP streams (it passes all RTMP parameters to rtmpdump.exe). You may never need this, but who knows...
