How to play/watch/view NASA TV HD from UStream.TV with rtmpdump and VLC

[anonekku]

rtmpdump-20110925-git-6230845-win32.zip version was the latest on the page i could find

that site isn't available but searched for alternative
virustotal.com says 2 out of 42 scanners say its a virus

AhnLab-V3 2011.10.20.00 2011.10.20

Trojan/Win32.ADH
Symantec 20111.2.0.82 2011.10.20 Trojan.ADH
took the risk

rtmpdump -r "rtmp://cp39920.live.edgefcs.net:1935/live" -a "live" -f "WIN 10,3,183,7" -W "http://cdn1.ustream.tv/swf/4/viewer.rsl.755.swf" -p "http://www.nasa.gov/multimedia/nasatv/ustream.html" -y "nasahd@55196" -o nasahd@55196.flv -v

using that code i get this

C:\>rtmpdump -r "rtmp://cp39920.live.edgefcs.net:1935/live" 

-a "live" -f "WIN 10
,3,183,7" -W 

"http://cdn1.ustream.tv/swf/4/viewer.rsl.755.swf" -p 

"http://www.na
sa.gov/multimedia/nasatv/ustream.html" -y "nasahd@55196" -o 

nasahd@55196.flv -v

so it works so thank you very much for that

but how do i play it in vlc or mplayer without downloading?

some information may be outdated because its not working
vlc opens but but nothing plays
mplayer doesn't open at all and terminal has wall of text
theres also sometimes handshake errors etc
a 24 hour stream like nasa would be a good example
still appreciate the update recommendation thank you
