RTMPDump 2.4 No Longer Working? (Windows)

[HorseTears]

I'm very new to the RTMPDump world. And let me preface this by saying that I am not a professional (nor amateur) developer, coder, computer scientist or interactive designer, so feel free to dumb it down for me. And let me apologize in advance if I ask really obvious questions or misuse terminology.

So, last week I downloaded RTMPDump and the RTMPDump Helper from this very helpful page: http://www.nirsoft.net/utils/rtmp_dump_helper.html.

I was using it mainly for C@4 because Replay Media Catcher no longer works with C4. RTMP Dump worked well with the exception that anytime a cam refreshed (or if I accidentally closed the tab and restarted it), RTMP Dump would write over the original file with the exact same name. Stream-Recorder user "slim10" very kindly advised me to check out KSV's RTMPDump 2.4 (found here: https://github.com/K-S-V/Scripts/releases ) and which apparently features a patch that adds a timestamp to the downloaded files to avoid automatically overwriting. Great! Except, I haven't been able to get RTMP Dump 2.4 to work once. When I launch RTMP Dump Helper (yes, located in the same folder as all of the RTMP Dump 2.4 files) it automatically executes rtmpsuck. The rtmpsuck black console window displays the following: "streaming on rtmp://0.0.0.0:1935". When I start a browser (Chrome, Firefox or IE) and launch a C@4 stream, nothing happens. The rtmpsuck black console window does not display any further text/code as though it hasn't even detected the stream. Then, when I go back to RTMP Dump Helper it lists "Failed to Attach" for each of the browsers. So, I use the F8 functionality to add each browser manually. However, this doesn't change anything. Nothing gets detected, nothing gets downloaded. Any clues as to what I might be doing wrong?

I'm on Windows 8.1 (for now)
Using the latest versions of Chrome, IE and Firefox

Thanks!

It doesn't work with Chrome's built-in Pepper Flash. Older versions of Chrome allowed you to disable Pepper Flash and use Adobe Flash. You can't do it on the current version of Chrome.

So, very weirdly, within an hour of posting my question here it miraculously started working. I swear I didn't do anything to make this happen - didn't reboot my system, didn't disable add-ons, didn't update Firefox (was already using the most recent vers), didn't have any Windows updates. But, bam, it started working and had no trouble "attaching" to Firefox. Unfortunately, a new error just started occuring today and causing RTMPSuck to crash every time it tries to capture a C4 stream. Will have to start a thread on that one now! Thanks guys.
