rtmpdump help: Video only available a for a few days. Help??

[nobodyhome]

Okay, so I'm trying to download a video from gyao.yahoo.co.jp and I was able to download them before by using a combination of http://kmake.net/gyaommsurl/ to generate the rtmpdump command and rtmpdump itself

I have had trouble finding the rtmp url and making my own commands for rtmpdump. I'm very Windows and html/code stupid. rtmpdumphelper didn't work (or I couldn't get it to work), RTMP Explorer wouldn't load the player, and I couldn't figure out how to use rtmpsuck or rtmpsrv.

When I use the site to generate the rtmpdump command I get:

rtmpdump -o "東京乙女レストラン 第4回.f4v" --rtmp "rtmpe://fmsf01.yolk.yahoo.co.jp:1935" --tcUrl "rtmpe://fmsf01.yolk.yahoo.co.jp/yolk/1001/" --playpath "mp4:yolk/109/11/1002/428/2433678_m1avFq6I2428452.f4v" --app "yolk/1001" --flashVer "WIN 11,9,900,117" --swfVfy "http://i.yimg.jp/images/gyao/player/fla/v1/red/GyaoPlayer.swf?23829049"

The error I get says:
RTMP_ReadPacket, failed to read RTMP packet header

The video is located at http://gyao.yahoo.co.jp/player/10161/v00031/v0000000000000000434/ and it's region locked.

The video is only up for a few days so I'd REALLY appreciate some quick help with this.

hi
the site use hls protocol and not rtmp so it's normal that rtmpdumphelper doesn't work


360p

rtmpdump -r "rtmpe://fmsf01.yolk.yahoo.co.jp:1935/yolk/1001" -a "yolk/1001" -f "LNX 17,0,0,134" -W "http://i.yimg.jp/images/gyao/player/fla/v1/red/GyaoPlayer.swf?23829049" -p "http://gyao.yahoo.co.jp/player/10161/v00031/v0000000000000000434/" -y "mp4:yolk/109/11/1002/428/2433678_m1avFq6I2428452.f4v" -o "東京乙女レストラン 第4回.f4v"

480p

to find m3u8 url

[nobodyhome]

Thanks for such a quick reply. However, being as Windows challenged as I am, I can't get the code you provided to work. I'm not even sure I'm using the programs right.

I change my directory in the command prompt to the folder where livestreamer.exe is and past the code in. I get this:



Will livestreamer save the video to my computer?

Same with rtmpdump; I can't get it to work:



I don't even know what I'm doing wrong and get the feeling it's something obvious. :/

Also, for future reference can I ask how you got the code for the 480 or 360? In case I run into this type of thing again. I've searched on Google for this type of thing only to get more and more confused.


EDIT: Just saw the edited post that added how to find the m3u8 url...but what do I do with that...? I have no idea. It took me a long while to get rtmpdump working.

ok for rtmpdump did you use the last version https://github.com/K-S-V/Scripts/releases/download/v2.4/rtmpdump-2.4.zip


and for livestreamer change host <gw.gyao.yahoo.co.jp> by <gw.gyao.yahooapis.jp>

livestreamer "hlsvariant://https://gw.gyao.yahooapis.jp/v1/hls/10161:v00031:v0000000000000000434/variant.m3u8?device_type=1100&delivery_type=2&min_bandwidth=248&appkey=52hd8q-XnozawaXc727tmojaFD.SD1yc&appid=ff_rbJCxg67.bRk_lk7CbWFjhorGVKjvFsRgiLDHW4PE.vN6zxDW6KyRr1Zw3rI-" best -o "東京乙女レストラン 第4回.ts"

I just double-checked and I have rtmpdump 2.4.

Just tried the code for livestreamer and:



I got the m3u8 url that you told me how to get and tried playing it in vlc and it played for a bit then vlc crashes. I also made sure vlc is up to date.

[biezom]

there a lot of version rtmpdump-2.4

your version "RTMPDump v2.4 GIT-2013-12-05 (Compiled by KSV)"

the last version i proposed "RTMPDump v2.4 GIT-2015-01-15 (Compiled by KSV)"


for livestreamer i think you are geo restricted. did you use proxy in your browser? if you use it you need use the same proxy with livestreamer


the good new rtmp protocol isn't geo restricted

[nobodyhome]

Made sure I used the rtmpdump you linked to and tried the code again and got:
RTMP_ReadPacket, failed to read RTMP packet header

I use SoftEther VPN to change my ip system wide. Or at least it seems be working system wide. How do I use a proxy specifically with livestreamer? Sorry I'm not getting this, but still thanks for the help.

Yup. Is it working for you? What did I do wrong? Ideally I'd like the 480p, but will settle for anything at this point.

Just thought I'd mention that I seem to have gotten it to work! I thought I'd try one of the other m3u8 urls and it worked. Thank you for telling me how to find those urls. I had no idea before.
