is there any solution to really hide my rtmp link from those software that detect easily the rtmp link (for rtmp live streaming )

This is not really the correct forum/website to ask that question. This forum is mainly used for the opposite of what you're asking. People on this forum try to help each other to download/record streams, not to help people prevent their streams from getting downloaded/recorded. It's like going to a warez website and then asking there how to prevent your software/game from getting cracked

i need to protect my rtmp because i'm using my servers to broadcast illegal content (content dmca protected), so that, any one using URL Snooper can easily detect my server's ip to report it ...

What is the correct forum to ask that question ?

To be honest, I don't think you can. You can try rtmpe, which is an encrypted version of rtmp, but it only hides the data getting streamed. People still need to connect to the server and if you can connect to a server, then you can get the IP address of the server. If you stream via rtmpe, then WireShark will show the data as "Real Time Messaging Protocol (Unknown (0x0))", but it still shows the IP address of the server you're connected to. People might also be able to decompile the swf player you're using to get the IP address of the server.

Maybe they have better ideas on the Adobe forums, but obviously don't tell them about the illegal content.

If you really want security, implement SWF Verification Type 2 on your RTMPE stream. Some YouTube videos, and few sites are using this and currently no workaround.
