Re: CSPAN recently


Hi,

I was able to record the stream using RTMPDUMPHELPER. You launch the helper 1st, then play the stream and it'll get record it

And this below is the codeI found in the command file, BUT if you play this (as a .bat file) or a command at the rtmpdump prompt!!! It creates a recorded empty file, for a few seconds, then shuts down!

Code:
rtmpdump -r "rtmp://cspan-146.c-spanarchives.org:80/bwcheck" -a "bwcheck" -f "WIN 11,9,900,117" -W "http://static.c-spanvideo.org/assets/swf/CSPANPlayer.2013.10.18.swf" -p "http://c-spanvideo.org/program/AdamGr" -y "mp4:downloads/315/315720-4/315720-4-MP4-STD/315720-4-MP4-STD_01.mp4" -o "2013-10-27_05-10-07_315720-4-MP4-STD_01.flv"
P.S. I'm using Win8.

Tried for example http://c-spanvideo.org/program/AdamGr and http://c-spanvideo.org/program/ReaganDin

Cmd for the former:
rtmpdump -r "rtmp://video.c-spanarchives.org:1935/fastplay/../mp4:downloads/315/315720-4/315720-4-MP4-STD/315720-4-MP4-STD_01.mp4" -W http://www.c-spanarchives.org/flash/cspanPlayer.swf -v -o green.mp4

Result:
RTMPDump v2.4
