How to get the real rtmp address on this encoding page.

[meetinnet]

.

Just courious. I thought the address was easy to get but...

It's a CNN News online website. Open the page: http://www.livenewschat.eu/international/ ,wait for a little while the news stream will start. I tried many ways to sniffer but only get this:rtmp://argos.cdn.newschat.tv/edge/cnni_live and this address seems not available when put it into media players just like vlc or kmplayer.

Any ideas will be appreciated.

There are many answers to that already on this forum.

There are fewer and fewer RTMP streams on the internet and more streams of other type
and looking on longer term there won't be any more news websites using RTMP streams left.

You can get your RTMP parameters with rtmpdumphelper, download the stream with
rtmpdump and pipe output to vlc, or use ffplay.exe

streamlink and youtube-dl are good to get "other" type of stream, here is one example:


streamlink.exe http://tvplayer.com/watch/cnninternationaleurope 1864k


Here are your RTMP parameters from rtmpdumphelper:


rtmpdump -r "rtmp://dayfdd.cdn.newschat.tv/edge"
-a "edge"
-f "WIN 26,0,0,131"
-W "http://newschat.tv/player.swf"
-p "http://www.livenewschat.eu/international/"
-y "cnni_live"
-o "2017-06-19_09-26-42_cnni_live.flv"

Sorry for not searching the forum carefully and Thank you for the answer.
I tried rtmpdumphelper and get the exactly info as yours.
But I still don't konw which is the exactly address that I can put into players. I tried http://www.livenewschat.eu/international/cnni_live and rtmp://climate.cdn.newschat.tv:1935/edge/cnni_live(which can be found in Command.txt) both weren't right. I was not trying to download the stream just want the address that can be played online use players.

Thanks again.

These parameters cannot be put in a gui player as they are.

You have to use command line and batch file.

rtmpdump -r "rtmp://dayfdd.cdn.newschat.tv/edge" -a "edge" -f "WIN 26,0,0,131" -W "http://newschat.tv/player.swf" -p "http://www.livenewschat.eu/international/" -y "cnni_live" | vlc.exe -

Thanks j_cool.
Now I realize what I thought was too simple.
Not all rmtp links can be put into gui players directly.
So for this website, it's easier to open the page directly for watching.

Good Website to visit and look arround.

There are links to another news channels, News Video link.

troller12, after a day of trying I can't get any media player to open these links you gave me:-

-r rtmp://dayfdd.cdn.newschat.tv/edge/cnni_live -W http://newschat.tv/player.swf -p http://www.livenewschat.eu/
-r rtmp://birds.cdn.newschat.tv/edge/cnni_live -W http://newschat.tv/player.swf -p http://www.livenewschat.eu/
-r rtmp://iran.cdn.newschat.tv/edge/cnni_live -W http://newschat.tv/player.swf -p http://www.livenewschat.eu/

As an example for Vlc I used: C:\PortableApps\rtmpdump\rtmpdump -r rtmp://dayfdd.cdn.newschat.tv/edge/cnni_live -W http://newschat.tv/player.swf -p http://www.livenewschat.eu/ | C:\PortableApps\VLCPortable\VLCPortable.exe -

The stream connects and the player opens but Vlc says it can't play the stream.

This happens with any media player I try.

Just as a check on the stream I tried downloading it with this: C:\Users\Cjk>C:\PortableApps\rtmpdump\rtmpdump -r "rtmp://dayfdd.cdn.newschat.tv/edge -a "edge"-f "WIN 26,0,0,131" -W " http://www.livenewschat.eu/international/" -y "cnni_live" -o "cnni_live" which works fine.

Am I missing a command to get the stream into any media player please?

[colin1951uk]

Ok, thanks to all, finally got it working, it was a router firewall problem stopping Vlc from accessing some of the stream.

PotPlayer and SMPlayer both work now to.

The steam has been down at times which worried me but it seems the server keeps changing which doesn't help.

Cheers people
