How to record/capture/rip/save TwitCam video stream

[any ANONYMOUS forum user]

Hi,

I've recorded a live stream from _http://twitcam.livestream.com/
But now I want to find a way to save it to my hard drive in the original quality. Is there any way to capture/rip/save a stream like _http://twitcam.livestream.com/5by98 ?

it's simple rtmp stream.

rtmpdump.exe -r rtmp://extondemand.livestream.com/ondemand/trans/dv15/mogulus-user-files/chtwitcam_alexey_som/2011/06/19/d0d96e76-23d0-4441-a812-a93f7204c742 -W http://cdn.livestream.com/chromelessPlayer/v21/playerapi.swf -o Test.flv

And you can to capture RTMP streams in real time while you watch them using freeware RTMPexplorer + rtmpsuck, CooJah (without Blader), Orbit Grab Pro, shareware Replay Media Catcher (in the RTMP recording mode), WM Recorder (in the Loopback mode). Capturing can be done in real time only, but allows you to stay undetected.
