Recording RTMP Webcams from cam4(HowTo record XXX/adult web-cam videos from cam4.com)Ill put as much information as I think is necessary and will skip the long story of how I figured this out. More to the story though: where there’s a will, there’s a way: Don’t give up!
What is cam4.com & why does there have to be a whole topic on it? cam4 is a free adult webcam site that, as many other live cam sites, common methods of download will not work for it. It uses the RTMP protocol and a flash player. After searching the web I found no solutions to the problem, and this site has other solutions so I thought I’d just add one more for everyone to enjoy. Ok, What programs don’t work when recording adult videos from cam4 web-cams? Replay Media Catcher (Actually this does work, but it will stop downloading prematurely after around 30 seconds, give or take 29 seconds.) FLV Recorder (Does download, but the saved information is unplayable under any player) VLC player (This one was just out on a limb, and it doesn’t not work (under current nightly beta builds as of 7/12/08) A few other unheard of programs, I don’t even remember the names. What CAN record adult videos from cam4.com? Only Orbit (which happens to be FREE) will work with proper use and tweakage. So finally.... How do you download live webcam video from Cam4 using freeware Orbit Downloader?! Step 1: Find the stream you want and open it in a supported browser. Step 2: Open Orbit Step 3: Start Grab++ Step 4: Refresh the page Step 5: The stream will now show in Grab, so check the "Cam?*****.flv" stream and hit download. Step 6: Download for 10-20seconds Step 7: HIT PAUSE! It will prompt you that you can not resume, click ok and have the download stopped completely. This step IS THE FIX. YOU MUST DO IT. Step 7 1/2: Go ahead and view the file in Media Player Classic (K Lite Codex). It will say it can’t render the video. (Once in a blue moon it will play) Don’t rename the .flv.ob! file, just force it to open. Step 8: Resume the download. (This will over write the file and start a new, working download). Step 9: Without stopping the download you can play the .ob! file with no problems. When the stream quits and/or your done watching it, pause it again and delete it from Orbit ONLY and DON’T REMOVE THE FILE. It will NEVER say its done, you just have to manually stop it, it will still work. Hope this helped anyone with problems. It MAY work on other websites too, try it out, it wont kill you to try. A note on audio: Audio problems vary from player to player. Flash Video Player can play the audio, but you cant skip around in the recording. Media Player Classic cant play audio, but you can skip around in the recording. VLC can play audio, but cant play video, and you can skip around in the recording. You have to give a little to get a little in this area, if/when i find a fix, ill let you know. Note: if I find something else really fixed this, an easier/faster way, or something else ill update. Please leave a comment if this helped you out on any other sites, or just a thank you is well appricated. Also feel free to PM me. Last edited by Admin : 11-25-2008 at 01:48 PM.
