Hello Chap,

I see that your question was directed at KSV, but as I was yesterday where you are now, it might be interesting for you how I found out about rtmpdump.

I was trying to find flv files in my browsercache as I used to but it would not work. I did a google search on how to download streamed video and found references to a commercial program called Jaksta. I googled that and a forum thread came up that explained that Jaksta is basically a packet sniffer with a transcoder and that it uses mencoder for transcoding. Someone added that it only works properly (i.e. saves copyrighted content) if you install the rtmpdump add-on.

I have played with wireshark before and could dig up the urls and the playpath (more or less accurately) and this forum taught me how to properly pass parameters to rtmpdump.

Many people here use Coojah and other windows programs save streams - and they are probably very handy. But going the KSV way (wireshark+rtmpdump) gives you a better understanding of what actually is going on.
