rtmpdump is dead???

[any ANONYMOUS forum user]

I haven't noticed any activity in the rtmpdump project recently. And for whatever reason hyc as well as other members have stopped answering onto questions about it.

Is rtmpdump project dead? Do you use ffmpeg or curl instead? Or may be some other software using librtmp?

Yes it is dead:

All versions of RTMPDUMP.EXE are capable of downloading RTMPE streams (Encrypted RTMP). This is why Adobe made a fuss about that program, and why development on it was stopped.

Can rtmpdump d/load from a secure RTMP feed? Is it possible? And also pull m4v files?

Yes, see here: DMCA takedown request from Adobe

Within the United States of America, but not in Europe or elsewhere, software which contains measures for circumventing copy-protection code may be in breach of the U.S. Digital Millenium Copyright Act (DMCA).

It is considered that only software which removes encryption from an RTMP stream (i.e. which unencrypts an RTMPE stream) is affected by that Act, and only if that software is used in, or hosted on a server within, the United States.

Don't worry. The rtmpdump project was taken down from sourceforge.net, but they host it on mplayer web-site now.

i've been able to use tcpflow and the remnants of RTMPdump to achieve the same effect.

The most recent version of tcpflow is v0.21, released 7 August 2003
