Please help with capturing multi-bitrate video (Brightcove RTMP)

[pierpont]

Hello guys..

I have a problem with recording quality of RTMP stream lecture video. From what i learn, the video is provided via Brightcove with their multi-bitrate (bandwidth adaptive) streaming method. (no quality choosing like in youtube)

The internet in my country is not blazing fast enough, so initially the stream is provided in low quality (barely unwatchable), but after several seconds, it changed to watchable high quality.

I've used Replay Media Catcher 5 and RTMPDumphelper, they can get the video, but only the initial quality when i first open the video (which is barely unwatchable low quality).

Do you guys have any method so i can take the rtmp stream when it changed to high quality?

because recording it is simply not feasible because the quality keep changing due to my bandwidth is unstable.


To give some context, the website is an online learning platform. I've paid the membership to get the lecture video, but they only provide the video via online method. It is really frustrating that after spending 500 bucks for it i can not barely enjoy the video due to technical difficulties...

please help me guys
