The problems are actually being caused by the continuing degradation of the entire Cam4 site. They have actually changed nothing as far as I can see, it just BREAKS MORE OFTEN ! when it is placed under a reasonable user load it seems to completely turn to crap and has stuff malfunction left, right and centre !
The RTMP timeout errors are caused when Cam4 "orphans" a stream. Have a look using URLSnooper as your browser negotiates a connection to a cam on the Cam4 site - then try connecting to a cam that is giving the "30 second timeout" error - you will see the difference between a "good" and an "orphaned" video stream.
Unfortunately, there is NOTHING Elgero's tool can do to resolve this. I have equally nightmarish headaches trying to use RTMPDump the way I record content (for exactly the same reason - the handshake negotiating the video stream is screwed up !)
