Recording Amazon Instant Video On Demand (AIV, VOD)

I don't know anything about RTMP plug-in modification. The official plugin_zrtmp.dll from Applian used to support RTMPE protocol before Adobe came to the spotlight.

the anonymous author explains it vaguely in the download ZIP-file..

quotebegin-"in particular to the team who modified the Replay Media Catcher 3 plugin"-quoteend, this phrase is used as a metaphor for "rtmpe catching and downloading tools" and their passionately working authors from all over the world.

Yeah, looks like Applian is totally innocent here. So dear Amazon, please do not sue Applian Technologies Inc. again!!

AWEESOOME. changed default BACK to firefox (had to go to chrome after updating windows yesterday), downloaded latest firefox to fix the connection problem, but STILL had the "Flash player out of date" problem. downloaded the new Flash IN GetFLV after disabling PeerBlock (which was probably my original problem haha), restarted GetFLV and everything worked GREAT! now i just have to save up $60

[xboxsold]

Can you elaborate what was "disabling PeerBlock" or give more details please..

Anyway, I took a look at your syntax and unpacked the Amazon Flash client to extract the new swf player address. I have changed the --swfvfy URL to http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/...179179119_.swf

Still fails, though. All versions of rtmpdump after 2.1d have trouble convincing the server to accept a type 6 handshake instead of a type 9:

Anybody with older rtmpdump wanna give it a shot? Once again, the updated URL for swfVfy instruction is: --swfVfy http://ecx.images-

Anyhoo, I don't think RTMPdump is gonna work until Howard figures out Handshake-9. The server will accept type 3 or type 6 handshakes for RTMP but not for RTMPE, it looks like.

I got the server to accept my handshake, but I guess that's not much of an accomplishment for protocol 1 or protocol 0.

@DumberThanPalin
hehe. this thread is about HOW TO DOWNLOAD and not about HOW TO FAIL TO DOWNLOAD amazon clap nor about rtmpdump or handshakes. if you continue to post your long failure logs, all related to RTMPDUMP, then i will transfer you to the rtmpdump section of SRF.

havent deleted users or posts for a long time. 'm feeling itchy and scratchy

hehe.

[svnpenn]

I agree with placebo

you have posted nothing more than RTMPdump failures and old information. The type 9 RTMPE handshake has been an issue since AT LEAST march of this year. Drop it unless you have new information.

chap, have you tried Russian rtmp explorer on AIV's?

no not working.

And has anyone tried TubeDigger?
i cant test it. i have uninstalled it!!

just download the trailer,unlike GetFLV
