searching for URL from Flash video(find rtmp:// hidden stream URLs from flash player)

[erwin33]

I visit websites with only flash video's but I would like to no what the direct URL is from that movies so I can play it in my own player. Where can I find that?

For the majority of flash videos sites (e.g. youtube or metacafe): you can use a user-friendly firefox plugin called DownloadHelper.

If Download Helper doesn't work, then try using URL Snooper to sniff out the link.

Any url beginning with " mms:// " or " rtsp:// " can be accessed with the help of Net Transport. Latest freeware version:

Someone has added "How to find flash stream URLs with URL Snooper" to the Streaming media recording FAQ

Replay Media Catcher can find flash stream URLs for both HTTP and RTMP flash audio and video streams. Well actually it can record MP3 and FLV streaming from Macromedia Flash browser plug-in (or flash player), but you may use it for free just to find RTMP and HTTP URLs of flash streams.
