Hello all! What a great site. For the last few days I have been tring to grab a few Sochi speed skating videos from cbc.ca that are on demand. I have tryed Rtmphelper and Streamtransport to no avail. I just starting playing with rtmp because I was not impressed with the quality of a screen capture software I used. Please pardon my noobishness but can anyone help me download one of these videos before cbc stops streaming them?
Any replys would be greatly appreciated!
Here is a link to one of the videos "http://olympics.cbc.ca/videos/live/video/speed-skating-womens-500m-run-webcast-35031.html"

Many thanks

Hello,

I'm asking advice in downloading the video at

http://www.moshcam.com/megadeth/no-sleep-til-festival-853.aspx

The stream is transferred over RTMP but I can't get the correct parameters for RTMPDump (I'm trying to use Wireshark to do this).

Thank you very much if you are able to help!

[Endoro]

http://www.moshcam.com/megadeth/no-sleep-til-festival-853.aspx

rtmpdump -r "rtmpe://cp163278.edgefcs.net:1935/ondemand" -y "mp4:videos-moshcam/moshcam/1692k/megadeth_002_20101218_nst_moshcam_1692k_480p.mp4" -o "Intro-Holy Wars - The Punishment Due.flv"

[James667]

I also tried to find the rtmp link using the wireshark filter and nothing under rtmp came up. I tried streamtransport and was only able to grab the commercial before the video. Before that I used Rmtphelper to work with rtmpdump and still no stream that I think Im looking for? Before that I tried Adobe HDS and used the firefox console to filter "f4m" and nothing showed. It looks like the video in fragments but Ive read people can still download these? I haven't gotten as far to see if it's encryped yet. Is anyone familar with cbc.ca streams? I'm not quite sure what format they use.

Hi, New user here.
Thank you ahead of time for whomever can help me. I am trying to download download this video

But no luck so far. Thanks again.

Hello,

I'm trying to download one of several videos from the same site. As an example, I'm using https://www.daisuki.net/movies/watch/KILLlaKILL/QFc/5Gc, since it's the smaller of the bunch. Following this guide I've put together the following command from Chrome's developer tools network element:

rtmpdump -r rtmp://cp221510.edgefcs.net/ondemand/ -y mp4:videos/391673657002/201309/30/391673657002_613809559002_a-524a2172f0d01.mp4 -o pv.flv

This, however, manages to download a file which can't be played by VLC or other video players. RTMPExplorer automatically generates a more elaborate command, but the result is a non-playable video again (although there is a RTMP_HashSWF error).


RTMPDumpHelper gives me an error and doesn't produce any files.

Can anyone give me any idea on what I'm doing wrong (which I'm sure is plenty), and how to reliably find the correct parameters for the other videos?

Thanks in advance.

[muzakh]

Endoro, thanks a lot for the push into right direction. If I correctly understand, the parameters needed for rtmpdump are encrypted but rtmpsrv.exe knows how to decrypt them. Using this guide http://stream-recorder.com/forum/use-rtmpdump-rtmpsrv-linux-t7661.html, I managed to find the correct parameters and then download the whole concert video using rtmpdump in the usual way. If it's any use for someone else, the command is

rtmpdump -r "rtmpe://cp163278.edgefcs.net:1935/ondemand" -a "ondemand" -f "LNX 11,2,202,332" -W "http://www.moshcam.com/[[IMPORT]]/players.edgesuite.net/flash/plugins/osmf/advanced-streaming-plugin/v2.11/osmf2.0/AkamaiAdvancedStreamingPlugin.swf" -p "http://www.moshcam.com" -C O:1 -C O:0 -y "mp4:videos-moshcam/moshcam/1692k/megadeth_002_20101218_nst_moshcam_1692k_480p.mp4" -o megadeth_002_20101218_nst_moshcam_1692k_480p.flv

James667, I tried to found a way to download that skating video of yours but no luck, sorry. Looking into the packets with Wireshark, I'm quite sure that the video is not streamed using RTMP. Hopefully someone smarter can help you.

You're getting the server file correctly, but it is encrypted with flash access. If you look at the header of the video file in a hex editor, you'll see "FlashAccessv2" and also "encv", both signs of encryption.

Hi,

What's the best ffmpeg command to download the m3u8 video with the smallest watchable file size possible (cost-benefit)? I've been using (ffmpeg -i "http://..." -c copy t.mkv), but it seems to me that I could lose a little more quality to get a smaller video file (I usually get around 2.35mb per minute).

Thank you very much in advance.

Does anyone know a FFMPEG command to download a smaller file from m3u8 link than this:

ffmpeg -i "http://...m3u8" -c copy t.mkv

?

Sorry to ask again, it's because I have to download more than 400 videos.

Thanks in advance. Best regards.

Ah, I see. Is there any way to get rid of this encryption and make the video file playable or is recording the screen the other viable option? In any case, thanks for your answer!

So I used ulr detector in coojah6 with this "http://olympics.cbc.ca/videos/live/video/speed-skating-women-1500m-finals-webcast.html vid I'm trying to download, under the video tab only the commercial came up, under the flash tab I have 10 items all with "swf" witch I understand may be flash? This is the first string under the flash tab "http://olympics.cbc.ca/flash/diva/DivaCBC_960.swf?1395059526300" Would it be possible to make a downloadable ulr with this to use with something like Adobe HDS Downloader??
Any replies appreciated.

Everything works

sysanin, Thanks for your demonstration

So is it need to use Firefox to download the video? And what the add-on are you using?
Great thanks for your help!

Hi People!
Need help to download some videos.
Here is an exemple. I caught this link from the source of the webpage rtmps://stream07.localmidia.com.br/bmestudo/_definst_/mp4:bmestudo/aula_demonstrativa.mp4/playlist.m3u8.
I already try to download using some rtmpdump line commands I found here and other topics.

Maybe I´m using the wrong command. Could anybody help me with this?
thanks in advance

Thanks guys!

I had tried a bunch of programs but none found it. I also tried by hand, and thought the link was (it's missing mp4:)

rtmp://media-rtmp.thesoundalliance.net/inthemix/itm-fm/110603-DangerMix.m4a

Can you explain to me the steps you took to find the rtmp url and the s3 one? I want to learn this stuff
