Help! Need to record audio from be-at.tv

[Hilton]

Hi guys,

I've had a look through a number of other threads regarding the capture of audio/video from be-at.tv streams.

In particular I want to fetch JUST the audio from here: http://www.be-at.tv/brands/sankeys/s...012/solomun.go

It seems that the recommended route is to use rtmpdump, unfortunately I have no experience in this at all - I spent much of the last hour figuring out what it all meant to no avail!

If there is anyone who is capable of extracting the audio from this and could pass it onto me then I would be willing to paypal some money for your troubles

Many thanks in advance for your expert help

and paste this url and click go

http://www.be-at.tv/v2/2/9/HostMovie.swf

or use rtmpdump

rtmpdump -r "rtmp://media.cdn.be-at.tv/cfx/st" -a "cfx/st" -f "WIN 11,2,202,235"
 -W "http://www.be-at.tv/v2/2/9/HostMovie.swf" -p "http://www.be-at.tv/v2/2/9/Ho
stMovie.swf" -C B:0 -y "Session001403/Audio001446/128" -o 128.flv

u can download it with internet download manager too

Hi Josan420,

Firstly thanks a lot for your prompt response!

I have tried to use rtmpexplorer and rtmpdump but these do not seem to work.

Using rtmpexplorer, I paste the URL and press "GO". I skip to the correct set. In the rtmpexplorer it plays the audio from the be-at.tv session fine, but there is no activity on the CMD prompt to suggest it is downloading the data.

In the CMD prompt it says "ERROR: RTMP_ReadPacket, failed to read RTMP packet header", and it also says "WARNING: Trying different position for client digest". There is no other information appearing...?!

I would try and pasting the code you have provided straight into rtmpdump but I don't know how to use it. I have opened the rtmpdump.exe app but it disappears immediately. Could you perhaps give me a little more direction? Or if you can download the audio yourself and send I will pay you

Best Regards

[Hilton]

Update: I have managed to get the audio by using Internet Download Manager! It downloaded as an FLV and I then used FLVextract to demux it and just get the audio. Perfect, thanks again for your help Josan.

I am still interested to know how rtmpdump works, and if it is a better alternative to Internet Download Manager. However...using IDM was very very easy so it's a no brainer in terms of time efficiency.

I have opened the rtmpdump.exe app but it disappears immediately.

because it was divided in three lines,
try code provided by svnpenn, copy complete line and paste it in notepad, then save it in .bat format on your rtmpdump location.
run bat file your download will start
