www.vocsmultimidia.com.br: Recording goes into loop

tigreped · #1 08-30-2011, 09:48 PM

Hi, I'm attempting to download the .mp4 from this page:

_http://www.vocsmultimidia.com.br/clientes/auditorioibirapuera/

There, we find an embed player which plays one video divided into four parts, one played after the end of the previous one. In other words, when you access the link, video starts at part one. When part one ends, the player automatically loads and starts playing part 2, and so on for the remaining parts 3 and 4.

I have attempted to download the files one by one using RTMPdump, and thought I had achieved success. Unfortunatly, I noticed after checking the videos, that they were huge, around 1Gb for 40m of streamed video.

The truth is that it seems that in the capturing process, rtmpdump got stuck with the data flow, and it would go like:
0% ~ 9%, then started all over 0% ~11%, 1 % ~ 11%, in some sort of strange progressive loop.

A few times it would even die the stream dumping process, and I'd have to resume it.

As a result, the giant videos had also the data loops, so the video itself sucks, because you see like 5 seconds of the video looping several times before advancing to another set of repeating takes.

Does anybody knows it's way around this problem?

I saw somewhere a dude working on the command line with conditional commands "rtmp address ...If stuck do this... else do that -o file.ext"

Appreciate a lot, very important to collect those files, it is a discussion about copyright, internet rights and civil participation in those issues here in Brazil. Actually, our previous Minister of Culture is there, famous singer Gilberto Gil, also with the participation of Lessig, the creator of Creative Commons;

Cheers from Brazil.

add the (-v) option to the RTMPdump command :

Code:

-r "rtmp://wfs.mp.advection.net/" -a "mp/vocsmultimidia/auditorioibirapuera/_dld" -W "http://www.vocsmultimidia.com.br/jwplayer_5_5/player.swf" -y "mp4:auditorioibirapuera_20110824224020-20110824232635.mp4" -o test.flv -v

Code:

C:\Documents and Settings\Администратор\Мои документы\STREAM\rtmpdump-2.3-window

Chap, appreciate it, it's doing fine now, only it won't resume if I need, but doesn't matter, managed to get the contents. Thanks a lot. Gonna go for the man RTMPdump to understand better the -v option.

Cheers from Brazil.
