Interestingly, it seems to download fine with mplayer (though the download is real time) using:
mplayer -dumpstream -dumpfile temp2.flv "rtmp://e1f1.simplecdn.net/play/newyankeeonline/NYW_409_Wheelbarrow"
I'm wondering whether the problem has anything to do with rtmpdump seeming to download the file *too* fast. It downloads 308MB (of a 25 minute stream that should really only be 177MB) in a little over 7 minutes.
Is there any way to get
rtmpdump to download more in real time?
