How to watch RTMP/RTMPE streaming in MPlayer using rtmpdump


 
You can use the following command to watch an RTMP stream with MPlayer

Code:
c:\Program Files (x86)\Applian Technologies\Replay Media Catcher 4>rtmpdump.exe
-r rtmp://188.165.205.104/technosmart/techno10! --quiet | "C:\Program Files (x86
)\SMplayer\mplayer\mplayer.exe" -cache 8192 -



How to watch RTMP/RTMPE streaming in MPlayer using rtmpdump
  1. Download and install SMPlayer
  2. Try to use RTMPexplorer to find the parameters.
  3. Then replace
    Code:
    -o "filename"
    with
    Code:
    --quiet | "C:\Program Files\SMplayer\mplayer\mplayer.exe" -cache 8192 -
    or
    Code:
    --quiet | "C:\Program Files (x86)\SMplayer\mplayer\mplayer.exe" -cache 8192 -
    mplayer.exe can reside in some other folder depending on where you install it.

Code:
rtmpdump -r "rtmp://npsaflivefs.fplive.net:1935/npsaflive-live/" -a "npsaflive-live/" -f "WIN 10,3,181,14" -W "http://media-player.cdn.level3.net/flash/v1_1_1/Level3MediaPlayer.swf" -p "http://www.windowsintowonderland.org/live/live3.htm" --live -y "stream50" | C:\Program Files\SMPlayer\MPlayer\mplayer.exe -cache 8192 -
Sorry if thats the wrong location for SMPlayer.
thanks, i certainly have tried other programs too! are you sure about the -cache?

smplayer seems to be choking on that (and doesn't work with it removed either)

Sorry i forgot to add "-" without the quotes at the end of -cache 8192 :o
Code:
rtmpdump -r "rtmp://npsaflivefs.fplive.net:1935/npsaflive-live/" -a "npsaflive-live/" -f "WIN 10,3,181,14" -W "http://media-player.cdn.level3.net/flash/v1_1_1/Level3MediaPlayer.swf" -p "http://www.windowsintowonderland.org/live/live3.htm" --live -y "stream50" | C:\Program Files\SMPlayer\MPlayer\mplayer.exe -cache 8192 -

kcmule
everything is easier, paste this link in SMPlayer and be able to watch.;)

Thanks chap! You have certainly got me closer than I was before because I can now see the stream in mplayer!! but ever so frustratingly the player consistently crashes about 4:50 into the stream. I get this error every time:

You realize of course that you can build mplayer with librtmp directly supported, so you don't even need rtmpdump. Just give an rtmp URL to mplayer...

Latest official builds of MPlayer include librtmp support for rtmp streams.

If I take the RTMPexplorer output and replace "rtmpdump" with "mplayer", will it work?

no. command format for MPlayer is little different. however with little modification to code it can be done easily.

I guess I need some help with this part. I'm not sure how to build anything.. really just happened upon this web site from a google search.
In the meantime I've been playing around with ffplay/ffmpeg, which also sound like they should work, but still hitting a wall so far. My lack of experience with command-line programs probably isn't helping much.
