Recording RTMP Webcams from cam4(HowTo record XXX/adult web-cam videos from cam4.com)

[nikomuc]

update ... would be nice

[Elgero]

Guys, just use rtmpdump. If you want to record these webcams, then put in some effort yourself.

The admins of Cam4 are well aware that this forum exists, because if you type "record cam4", "download cam4" or something similar into Google, then this thread is one of the first search results you get, hence the 380.000+ views it has. Every time I post an update, then Cam4 changes something to prevent it from working.

First they added a custom command that rtmpdump doesn't understand, so I posted my own rtmp commandline tool that handles the custom command. Barely a week later they changed it, so the custom command had to be sent every 30 seconds or else the download stopped after 1 minute. Then they removed the custom command and started to change the rtmp parameters, etc, etc, etc....

It's an endless cat and mouse game.

You can find instructions on how to show and record rtmp?

I don't know if there are specific guides/instructions posted here on the forums, but if you search for 'rtmpdump', then you will find hundreds of threads with examples that show how to use it. You can also use RTMPDumpHelper to get the required parameters.

I followed a youtube video for rtmpdump and the helper, but it didn't work for cam4.

First of all, thanks elgero for your previous tools, i used it only 2 weeks but it was really great.

After a couple of headache, i finally managed to record with rtmpdump.
I'm really, really, a noob for this, so it's a performance for me .

the topic "How to use RTMPDump" help me a lot.

Anyway, now i need to search if the flv file can automaticaly take the name of the model, like elgero's tool.

Sorry if there are some mistakes in my English or my wording, it's not my native language.

In the same way of the up reply, thank you Elgero.

At now, I learn how to capture using rtmpdump, I can rename the files as you do, but I don't know how to get the rtmp url from the commandline.

Can you help me with that please? A little explanation sure can help us a lot

PD. Happy Holidays
