Help recording videos from starwars.com

[t0x1n]

For example:

http://starwars.com/video/view/001158.html

I can't figure out what the stream URL is (e.g. rtmp://???)
Tried Grab++, CooJah, URL Snooper, WireShark...

Thanks!

[WHOOKIDSON]

rtmpe://cp35877.edgefcs.net:1935/ondemand?ovpfv=1.1/swflash/ch1/tcw_tvprev312special

[t0x1n]

Thanks for that, WHOOKIDSON

Mind telling me how you obtained it?
Also, what utility can I use to download it? I can't get Blader nor RTMPdump to do it

[WHOOKIDSON]

I tested both GetFLV and StreamTransport and they both successfully found the rtmpe stream and downloaded it correctly...both programs are very useful..

[t0x1n]

Great stuff! StreamTransport did the job
Thanks for your help

[Stream Ripper]

Awesome - thanks guys!

Right. Thanks, good job guys! Coojah did the job too, see:



easy.

Interesting, didn't work for me for some reason - the video tab was empty (I went to youtube and it did catch the flv, so I don't know)

In any case I prefer a program that's not mostly in chinese and can actually run on Win7 without settings the compatibility mode. If memory serves, Stream Ripper mentioned CooJah doesn't work well on his computer as well, so it seems I'm in good company

In any case thanks again for the help

on my pc, i have major trouble getting "URL Snooper 2" to work. i've seen it working on my machine. nevertheless its installation is not fool proof. when i install it, it doesnt mean that it will work. i h*te URLSnooper2 for this. HiDownload (again by a Chin*se coder) makes clever use of PCwincap and integrates "URL Helper" which is also a product of the makers of HiDownload. So when i need a pcwincap-based sniffer i would install a trial version of Hidownload Platinum Edition and it's sure to work. URL sniffers seem hard to install or hard to make work flawlessly.. even if your pcwincap installation is valid. When weather's bad outside, the proggi wouldnt work *ggg*

The advantage of CooJah is that it is not based on pcwincap (i think), and though it doesnt catch all rtmp and or rtmpe links (depends on the website!), it does catch some good amount of such links. sometimes a reboot would help. or using internet explorer. or going thru the settings. and yes, as in our case, sometimes coojah catches the links on one pc (mine) but not on the other's (yours) .. i am sure the coder of coojah himself/herself could explain this odd behaviour.

toxin, im running winxp. maybe coojah isnt intended for win7..
i'd prefer a totally English language version too. as long as coojah is a freeware tool, we cant demand much from the coder.. *ggg*

I use CooJah in Windows 7 x64. I couldn't make it work at first... it was crashing all the time. But now it captures links for me perfectly.

As for URL Snooper, it was my favorite URL finder. But the latest versions don't work for me.
