In WM Recorder 14.8 hit the "Options" button and select "Open LOOPBACK"

Or just create a shortcut for WMLoop.exe:

Ricknroll is gone, but bigger problems occur . Myfreecams video authorization error, you are unable to view the video because you attempting to access it outside of the myfreecams website.
Started to happen today.... Currently for freechat , loop back mode and WM Recorder 14.8 work, but you have to have the chats open, but its still a bit better option then screen recording software, because its in flv, and you can record multiple streams at the same time if you open them all in different browser windows.

However if your lurk4 program still works id like to purchase it if you are selling.

FAQ on the Applian site about using Fix FLV with live streams

Using this method Applian say use 15 as a starting point. This seems to a poor starting point, but I guess Applian had to start somewhere.

After some testing I have found between numbers 30-37 gives very good results, esp if you know how to read the numbers in the columns - Tools/Fix FLV/File contents. The numbers are secs of the record in format XXXX.XXXX.

So u if know the time length of yr record say 25.48 mins that equals 1548 secs. So change the fix flv number (try say 30) and after hitting ok and the number changes in the column check at the end. If number is less than 1548.XXX, increase the fix FLV number, or if the column displays a number greater than 1548.XXX decrease until you can arrive as close as you can to 1548.XXX.

As Applian Fix FLV does not allow fractions or decimals it will always be out by a small margin but this does effect the file.

Trust this extra info helps.

No idea why you need to fix your timestamps at all if you implement the rtmp protocol correctly since the timestamps are send correctly by the server. I just don't understand it from the programmer point of view and I'm curious what's the cause of this.


To all the people who PM'ed me and I haven't responded back: Sorry got a lot of PMs these days.
To cover most questions: No Lurk4 doesn't record Groups and Privates yet. It's on my todolist and because of the huge demand since the rickroll, it's on top of it. No it's no normal streaming recorder. Yes it's for people being AWAY from the computer, yes I can add your site to support if it's not too big to implement (and if there's win). Yes you can record multiple Myfreecams/Cam4/Camfuze streams at the same time.

What I have found since using RMC4 in record mode, was using RMC3.11 previously which was much better, but that's another issue, is the video freezes for anything up to 10-15 secs though out the video.

Fixing the timestamps corrects this issue and the video then plays as normal with lil or no skipping.

As I am not really across all the details re timestamps but when i check the timestamps in Fix FLV they start at 0 but then jump up considerably....and the numbers are not evenly spaced. Now maybe my PC or some issue not sure.

Some feedback might be helpful

So Myfreecams/Cam4/Camfuze send correct timestamps? Could you please share any information that could help to fix the problem? I'd love to avoid fixing FLV files manually a lot.

use WM Recorder.

your timestamps will never be wrong (it will always start at 0:00), and you wont have the speed up between missing/dropped audio data.

Replay Media Catcher is horrible at capping

rmc is horrible at capping

I use VLC to speed up or on most occasions slow down.

So WM Recorder does this where RMC does not is that what you saying ?

[Rhade]

im saying that in using WM Recorder, you wont need to fix anything or do anything in vlc

i record streams using wmrecorder, then pass them to lurk4 and encode them straight to mp4, no editing or fixing required

and if on the off chance it is a borked capture, IE Replay Media Catcher using quickview in Lurk4 almost always fixes the errors

another good feature in lurk4 :P
