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.

May I come in here please even though the thread has been inactive for a while.

I have been trying to watch CNN International from http://www.livenewschat.eu/international/ with either Vlc or PotPlayer for about a week now and get the most odd results from both.

To just view I use this simplified stream link which should work: rtmp://dayfdd.cdn.newschat.tv/edge/cnni_live.flv

BUT instead of the news I get some streaming pop cartoon in both players.

I can't understand what's going on here and wondered if anyone can help me out as it seems a bit nuts to me.

Cheers...Colin

Nothing is nuts here.

Website design is changing as time goes and nobody works on rtmpdump.

pop cartoon is admins greeting to you if you use ffmpeg.

They are finding ways to work around rtmpdump as well, but not fully successful as they would like it to be.

They would not be successful at all if somebody worked on rtmpdump yet.

They still cannot go against old ways as they were never able to without secure token.

Here I use an old browser to run rtmpsuck to get parameters.

You can use these parameters with rtmpdump and pipe output to player.

Hi,

so all links are working but you need to use url to player & url to web url to get the right stream of CNN.If you dont use these 2 paramters then you get the stream with the cartoon.Just call it like that...

-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/

Troller, can you tell me please how do you get this right with ffmpeg?

It would be great, rtmpdump is good, but getting old...

ffplay -i "rtmp://birds.cdn.newschat.tv/edge app=edge swfUrl=http://newschat.tv/player.swf pageUrl=http://www.livenewschat.eu/international/ playpath=cnni_live live=1"
