  1. Hello

    I'm trying to download this video but DownloadHelper and clipconverter.cc don't recognize the video, any help would be greatly appreciated

    video: http://www.pbs.org/wnet/religionandethics/2010/07/02/july-2-2010-post-apartheid-south-africa/6590/

  2. You can download with programs RTMPDumpHelper + RTMPDump

    extract RTMPDumpHelper and RTMPDump from ZIPs
    copy all files from RTMPDump to RTMPDumpHelper folder
    run RTMPDumpHelper.exe and conform that you have this messages:



    Play video in web browser
    wait for message Closing connection... done! in command line window:



    Find FLV video file in rtmpdumphelper folder

  3. I didn't get the "closing connection...done" message but it worked, thanks a lot!

    Does this method work for all flash videos? this is awesome

    from http://www.pbs.org/wnet/religionandethics/2010/07/02/july-2-2010-post-apartheid-south-africa/6590/
    
    using about:cache (in FF) I found

    One click on that link openned a new page
    
    On that page , one click on 'http://urs...481" , gave to me

  5. Trying to download this file:

    http://www.pbs.org/wnet/americanmasters/episodes/bing-crosby/full-film-bing-crosby-red...scovered/3605/

    RTMPDumpHelper says it is attached to Firefox, but nothing happens in the command line window.

    Looked in the cache, but could not find an entry that begins with http://urs.pbs.org/redirect

    Any ideas?

    Thanks!

    Mark please next time open NEW post

    You can try download with ffmpeg in command line:

  7. Thanks. Not sure which link is right to download ffmpeg - could you point me to a direct link for a Windows 7 64 bit version?

    Sorry for my ignorance.
    Quote Quote  
  8. Yeah, that's the one I downloaded, but it made no sense. Is there a tutorial? I have to use it in the command line window?

  9. Extract zip file
    after extract, copy ffmpeg.exe from Bin folder to C:\
    Open command prompt window by click on Start, type in search Command Prompt and open
    type in command prompt window cd\ and enter
    conform you in C:\>
    Click image for larger version

    copy and paste to the window ffmpeg command line with right click
    after paste press enter
    Click image for larger version

  10. Hi marknyc5 ,

    Sorry ; 'roma_turok' has given an other process .

    ===
    !!! NOTE : as I don't live in USA I can't watch this video !!!
    I can DL it , with the link given 'roma_turok' (thanks) .
    ===
    ===
    I think you don't follow the good process .

    _ launch RTMPDumpHelper
    _ a window 'rtmpsuck' appear => minorize it
    _ you can see 'RTMPDumpHelper's window'
    ==> RTMPDumpHelper says it is attached to Firefox

    _ in Firefox , paste the link "http://www.pbs.org/.../3605/" , launch it

    ==> while the video is running you'll get informations
    ==> in the 'rtmpsuck' window .

    _ open a file 'Command.txt' in witch you can read all the commands-line :
    rtmpdump -r "rtmp://...southafrica.flv" <== that was for an other try

    ? in your case I don't know what is given ?
    ===
    ===
    Use instructions given by 'roma_turok'to create a batch file 'crosby.bat'
    !!! to be save in the 'ffmpeg's directory' ( as you'll use ffmpeg ) !!!

    @echo on
    ffmpeg -i "http://ga.video.cdn.pbs.org/...m3u8" -c copy t.ts
    pause
    :end

    Launch 'crosby.bat' .
    ===
    ===
    About FFMPEG : http://ffmpeg.zeranoe.com/builds/win64/static/
    you can find : ffmpeg-latest-win64-static.7z
    http://ffmpeg.zeranoe.com/builds/win64/static/ffmpeg-latest-win64-static.7z

    _ Click on the link for DL the file 'ffmpeg-latest-win64-static.7z'

    _ Create a directory D:\ffmpeg
    _ insert 'ffmpeg-latest-win64-static.7z' in this directory
    _ Extract here 'ffmpeg-latest-win64-static.7z'
    _ You'll got a sub-directory 'ffmpeg-20150103-git-504267f-win64-static'

    _ Go at D:\ffmpeg\ffmpeg-20150103-git-504267f-win64-static\bin
    => HERE YOU CAN FIND "FFMPEG.EXE" !!!

    NOTE : you can copy it anywhere on the disk ; if needed .
    ===

    I hope this will help .

    Cheers .
