How to download flash video RTMP/RTMPE streams using free software

[starrys]

Guys, can anyone tell me if it's possible to download this flash video from Mixbook

Also, why is it so zoomed in? I can't get it to show the whole book.

Thanks

Oh my God, thank you! Is it possible to remove those green lines from the pages or thats the best it can be done?

Hi,

Here I am...the dreaded beginner. Haha.

After hours of researching all day yesterday and the night before, because instructions I found just got to be too technical for me, I have finally given up and decided to ask for help here. I know that some of you probably get tired of us newbies always needing videos downloaded, but in my defense, I did try to educate myself and attempt several programs (including reading a lot of old threads on here)...but it's just not something that I can easily do without someone physically here to help me understand the code better.

Also, I hope I'm posting in the right thread. I didn't want to bump an old thread and get in trouble for it.

So here is my current situation...

I'm trying to download some video clips from ABC (as I need them for a past due project), but as you know, they switched to all the m3u8 stuff (which I had never heard about until all this researching). I tried several programs, but only two of them would work. The problem was that it was a trial version and would only download low quality (and I need 720 HD). And because I can't afford any software, I started looking into the ffmpeg, etc. IDM gave me a list of .ts files, but it wouldn't work because of copyrights. Using Inspect Element in Firefox, and through this website's instructions, I was able to find the m3u8 file I need (at least I think so).

I also used this link - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Wuri22X1nw - to test the m3u8/uplynk and I knew that it registered somehow, because the Jw player showed the correct video time length on the player, but it would not play anything in Firefox or IE. It actually forced IE to re-open (probably more of a problem with my IE). But it having the correct video time length made me think that it meant I had the right m3u8 link. Of the m3u8 links in the Inspector/Console, I chose the first one, as was instructed in an earlier post on this site.

So after a couple of tries, I finally got a code posted here on that same page to work in FFmpeg. Once I hit enter, it started loading a bunch of files (I believe .ts files, if I remember correctly). I knew that it had to be somewhat of a correct step on my part, since the very last file was the very last second of the video (so all the files added up to the length of the video), but after it loaded all of them, it didn't do anything else. And I didn't know if I was supposed to enter another code after that. I also tried to open FF play through the .exe file to see if I could use it, but it just popped open a cmd prompt, which closed immediately. I tried to open it through the cmd prompt itself, but I wasn't able to get all the right codes in. My MS DOS knowledge is limited and it's been a long time since I used it, so I also downloaded WinFF, to see if the interface would help me better, but I could not find an option to download from a link (I only saw options to convert from files on your computer).

So do I need a couple of videos as soon as possible? Yes, but I also don't want to burden people the next time I need a video or on short notice, so I would like to be able to learn how to do it....but in an easier way. To put it bluntly, I don't understand code talk very well. Haha.

Although I wish I could just afford the add on package of ChrisPC or another software and be done with all this, I can't right now. Which, as far as I know, leaves me with ffmpeg. Because I looked up alternatives to ChrisPC that were free and couldn't really find anything other than another one that also limited me to a trial version (low quality).

If all those files loaded in ffmpeg, with the -i -copy c t.s (I think I have that code a little wrong...I'm going off of memory), was I supposed to enter another code after that? Loading those files was as far as I got, so I'm kind of stuck at this moment. And yes, I can paste a URL to the videos if you need them, but just don't make fun of me for my fangirl crime drama needs. Haha.

Thank you for any help in advance. It's greatly appreciated. I may ask questions that seem stupid or need baby step instructions, but I am trying.

I'm way past the due date for this project. Can someone else help me? I haven't received any PM's back so far.

Thanks so much! I appreciate it.

What is the trial software you used that couldn't download 720HD?

[carriecountry]

ChrisPC. I can't remember the name of the other one right now.

You'd probably get help if you provided the url(s) to the video(s). That was a pretty long post to somehow leave out that information.

I sent them in an PM because I was a little embarrassed/uncomfortable posting them since this is not a site full of fangirls, etc. Can I PM them to you?

Hello friends,
Can any one suggest the good software to download this youtube video?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F2bYaEYvBv4

I tried with some tools freely available in the internet by doing google but no luck.
Thanks in advance.

[vhelp]

video F2bYaEYvBv4

youtube-dl reports:
This video is no longer available due to a copyright claim by IWPL.

youtube website reports:
This video is no longer available due to a copyright claim by Aishwarya Art Creations.

in other words, the video was taken down.

assuming this is the movie: "Chirunavvutho Telugu Full Movie" ... after a third try, youtube is playing it now. but it won't download with youtube-dl and rtmpdumphelper v1.21, though i only tried those two with Opera.

[vvkp]

NOPE. I rechecked the video is available.

Hello, I know it's annoying to ask you this but I really need your help, please !!

Like other people I need to download a video that is only visible online (in fact I would like to play this "little reportage" on my TV "). Small problem is that the site is very protected and is difficult to download this video, I tried a lot of software that have not worked, for ordinarily I download youtube videos or other sites with Internet Download Manager, download Helper or Freemake Video (...) but none works for it.. I tried some software that are able to download even with a "rtmp" but without success ...

A friend of mine was trying to download the video using the source code but didn't succeed.

I saw that many of you have repeatedly dees find solutions, I beg you, help me, I hope there will be no sentence like "sorry, dude, it's impossible"

Would that be ok?

[WazaKrash]

@givens, I think you can download the video with Download Helper, maybe the file will be in .flv
and If you have a problem to read the .flv video, uses Media Player Classic or you can convert the file to .mp4 or .avi with a conversion software

sorry if that doesn't help you. I don't know how to find the live streaming url ^^"
