Replay Media Catcher 4, BETA VERSION 4.1.9 ==> WORKS!!!
file size is 170 MB (178.714.820 Bytes), crc32: D9418FAF
file can be played in Applian FLV Player (well... quite stuttery), but VLC has difficulties.. (very stuttery)
Clearly, the file is NOT perfect -- you could tell right away. RMC4 has downloaded the video but it is *not* the original server file. screen picture motion is not as smooth as the original webpage screening.
Verdict:
Apparently the RTMPT stream is still a challenge to all software coders. No software produced near-perfect results. And whatever you download, you can be sure that the file is NO WAY THE SERVER FILE. If you need perfect video server files, then delete your downloaded streams!! Otherwise, here is the ranking (as of end-of-March, 2011):
1st prize: HiD. Although same file sizes cant be reproduced (350-370MB), the file plays seemingly perfectly well in VLC and in FLV Player.
2nd prize: Replay Media Catcher 4 (BETA VERSION). file size is ~170MB, and video can be played back, even if very stuttery.
3rd prize: none
loser: rtmpdump. file size is ~170MB but the file is 100% corrupt. not even FLVExtract recognizes it as FLV file!!
pending: GetFLV. (
GFLV Team promised to include RTMPT support in some future versions/updates of their product. fingers crossed!)
