trying to learn how to use this tool

[rvindell82]

i've tried to rip this rmtp stream:
rtmp://fcs5-1.streamate.com/vod/extss/mp4:2014-01-04/show_3364524470_1388826562133_external

i've used urlsnooper to get it.

i'm trying to rip it using :

rtmpdump.exe -r "rtmp://fcs5-1.streamate.com/vod/extss/mp4:2014-01-04/show_3364524470_1388826562133_external" -o "c:\video.flv"

But i get:

ERROR: RTMP_ReadPacket, failed to read RTMP packet header
0.000 kB / 0.00 sec
INFO: Connection timed out, trying to resume.

I'm guessing there's more to this then just that?

Can someone help me figure this out, do i need to specify the player url in order to spoof the stream thinking that it's playing to the player or something?

EDIT:

Upon using a newer version of rtmpdump i get error message : ERROR: Closing connection: NetStream.Play.StreamNotFound instead

EDIT2:

Upon further understanding i'm using command :

C:\dump> rtmpdump.exe -r "rtmp://fcs137-1.streamate.com/vod/extss/mp4:2014-01-04
/show_3364524470_1388826562133_external" -w "http://static.gfx.cammodels.com/ski
n/sm/flash/player.swf" -o c:\video.flv

Which results in :

Connecting ...
WARNING: HandShake: client signature does not match!
INFO: Connected...
ERROR: Closing connection: NetStream.Play.StreamNotFound

Not sure if that gets me any closer or not

Exactly the same issue here - came here via Google search.

What was the solution?

Hi,

so if you do use the debug mode then you can see right at the top what the problem was. If you execute the link as one string without to declare the playpath then rtmpdump does execute the paramters wrong (in that case) = (playpath / app / tcUrl).Just set the playpath start manually and set a second slash after app or before playpath and now it works or just separate the parameters (-r / -a / -y).So I think its not necessary to post some basics & verify checks of rtmpdump personally by PM.
