You can find it under the same URL: https://github.com/andr3jx/RTMPExploreX/downloads
Now you can use another port than 1935 without problems. If you choose an other port it uses a portfowaring tool (command line utility) and redirects the connection to 1935. Moreover it uses the process names of rtmpsrv/-suck to detect if they are running instead of cmd.exe.

thanks

Thank you, nice of you for doing this. It would be great if there is function to download subs too. Just a suggestion.

@ka6_jeram
I don't know much about subtitles. Are they also transmitted over rtmp(e) or somehow different? Moreover I'm not sure if it is possible to get subtitles of every website. I think that different websites use different techniques to add subtitles so I would have to add the download-feature for many pages which would be much work.
Do you know some software which have this feature (maybe even open source)? Give me more information if you can..

@Andr3jx
I tried your software but unfortunately, rtmpsrv cannot detect any videos that I'm trying to download. About the subtitle, I use get_flash_videos and get_iplayer, but the only plugin that I know that can download subs from get_flash_videos is only Hulu.pm plugin ( but the sub needs further manual timing) and get_iplayer has its own built in subs downloader. I also download subs from iTV using sniffing method with Wireshark. iTV and iPlayer has .xml subs and Hulu has .smi file.

get_flash_videos and get_iplayer has this function. Maybe if you have spare time, perhaps you could produce something like get_iplayer for hulu.

RTMPExploreX is a quite simple tool. It's not possible for me to extend it easy to add a subtitle-downloader or to make it save videos transmitted with other methods. It only redirects rtmp connection to port 1935 and the rest is handled by rtmpsrv/-suck. If they fail to detect the stream, I can't do much.
Moreover I'm not very experienced in saving protected streams (at this moment). I made RTMPExploreX only to make people capturing ordinary rtmp(e)-streams more comfortable.
If I will have enough time and knowledge, I will try to make RTMPExploreX better (or create an other tool).

Thanks for the tool! I just had a problem - I posted on the github, but I thought I'd repost here:

I tried to play a video at crunchyroll.com -
(random example - http://www.crunchyroll.com/bodacious...-begins-588952) - and the video does not play. I see an "you have an old version of javascript or flash video player" before the message disappear and a blank window appears where the video player should be.

I've tried a few other sites just to be sure it wasn't me, but it looks like I am unable to play videos in the browser in order to get the rtmpe links.

Is this something on my end? I got a friend to try it as well and he couldn't get videos to load in the rtmpexplorer window either.

Hi!
I tried the stream with RTMPExploreX and could not reproduce your problem.

I use Windows 7 with Internet Explorer 9. Do you use an older version?
This problem occurs because Internet Explorer doesn't always handle scripts and redirects right. I will try to find a better way to suppress this behavior.

EDIT: I could reproduce the problem. The first time RTMPExploreX works, but if you choose an other video after this it stops to work and the video-area is blank. However the problem disappears if you clear Internet Explorers cache after it has loaded the videopage. I will add a possibility to clear the cache in RTMPExploreX.

Wow, clearing cache works perfectly! Who knew that would be a problem. Thanks for the help.
