^^-- the above is true, but all you really need is to be connected to the socket itself. What probably happens is just that your IP address gets stuffed into a big lookup table that is checked by the SSAS asc file, so you can telnet or netcat to chatNN.myfreecams.com. It shouldn't be a hindrance and it would be trivial to make a script that does it right before calling RTMPDump. My main hurdle is the wonky timestamping, even ffmpeg doesn't seem to fix it all the time.
