test and provide feedback.

PS: they have hired morons to encode their videos.

1. Can you explain what have you modded? I'm just curios in the insides of the code. I wanted to look at it and try a mod but I'm no expert into this. Also I couldn't find many resources about rtmpe protocol.

2. What made you think they hired morons to encode videos?

3. Thanks for your help. I didn't expected so much attention for my thread. You are quite dedicated. The modded version you provided works perfectly.

Necro, if you try the new modified rtmpdump http://www.mediafire.com/?bz3hapxoz5988vl you will be able to download those videos. I've just tried and it is working fine without interruption. So, download new rtmpdump and copy into RTMPexplorer folder. Start rtmpexplorer and go to that page. Start video you want to download. rtmpsuck will show you it is downloading the videos.

in rtmp.c you can modify HandleInvoke function to handle new type of commands.

Patch:

else if (AVMATCH(&method, &av_VerifyClient))
    {
        RTMPPacket packet;
        char pbuf[256], *pend = pbuf + sizeof (pbuf);
        char *enc;
        
        packet.m_nChannel = 0x03; /* control channel (invoke) */
        packet.m_headerType = RTMP_PACKET_SIZE_MEDIUM;
        packet.m_packetType = RTMP_PACKET_TYPE_INVOKE;
        packet.m_nTimeStamp = 0;
        packet.m_nInfoField2 = 0;
        packet.m_hasAbsTimestamp = 0;
        packet.m_body = pbuf + RTMP_MAX_HEADER_SIZE;
        
        double VerificationNumber;
        VerificationNumber = AMFProp_GetNumber(AMF_GetProp(&obj, NULL, 3));

        enc = packet.m_body;
        enc = AMF_EncodeString(enc, pend, &av__result);
        enc = AMF_EncodeNumber(enc, pend, AMFProp_GetNumber(AMF_GetProp(&obj, NULL, 1)));
        *enc++ = AMF_NULL;
        enc = AMF_EncodeNumber(enc, pend, exp(atan(sqrt(VerificationNumber))) + 1);
        if (!enc)
            return FALSE;

        packet.m_nBodySize = enc - packet.m_body;
        RTMP_SendPacket(r, &packet, FALSE);
    }

Try to play the video on their website and it skip frames at same points as the downloaded video. so it's not downloader's problem. videos are broken on their server.

Thanks for modding RTMPdump for the mediadirect.ro servers - awesome work.
However, there are still some freezes into the recorded shows - so I've asked a couple of friends living in Romania to see if they were able to play without flaws the streams on the websites using mediadirect as streamer. They claim that they could play the videos without freezes. Could this be an IP problem?

it's possible if they are streaming different files according to geo restrictions.

ask them to download the video on their side and check for any discrepancies in file.
