www.woopfm.com: RTMPDUMP Live Stream downloading problem, please help


So I have a live RTMP Stream that I need to record, after a few hours yesterday I was able to get rtmpdump to start recording.

However, the video only plays for about the first 25-50 frames (2 or 3 seconds) and then stops to a still image. Audio plays just fine.

I've checked all the settings on the streaming server, I don't have many options.... it's h.264 video encoding... bit rate is 256 and resolution is 320x240

Profile is Main, when I changed it to baseline I got no video at all from RTMPDUMP.

Here is some info from the debug

Protocol: RTMP
HOSTNAME: 64.203.106.123
Port: 1935
Playpath: woop
tcUrl: rtmp://64.203.106.123:1935/live
app: live
live: yes
timeout: 30 seconds

FMS Version 3.5.1.1

The connection string I am using is:

rtmpdump.exe -r "rtmp://64.203.106.123/live/woop" -v -o PleaseWork.flv

If anyone can get this to work or offer som einsight into why the video is not working, it would be appreciated -- thanks.

I realize it's hard to tell if the video is working or not since the room is currently empty, but if you load the web-player in your browser: "http://www.woopfm.com/flowplayer.htm"

You can see the video blips tha tlet you know it is streaming, lighting reflecting off certain objects etc. In the still video from rtmpdump there is no movement at all.

Whatever is generating that stream appears to be putting bogus timestamps in the data. I've hacked rtmpdump to reset the timestamps in this situation, which seems to help. No guarantees on the playback quality though; I have no idea what the real timestamps should have been. Get SVN r440 to test it.

Thanks for the response -- I've gotten the video to work by injecting flv header data using flvtool2, however the bogus timestamps/duration are still evident and causing issues in SOME players (not all).

I would live to try your modified version, however where can I snag that at?

Okay well I found out what SVN is and I managed to download the source for r440, however I had absolutely no luck getting MinGW to compile it correctly..

If there is any way you could compile the executable for me.. I'd appreciate it, thanks!
