ok, I'll try other programs than on your rtmp:// URL  ...

thanks a lot man, you taught me a lot here ... 
cheers ....

rtmpdump isnt the best program for this stream. i suggest you try it in Orbit Downloader.

but you said:

works for me in rtmpdump1.6

Mouser, I'm not quite sure, how exactly I should ask you and how I should formulate the question, but in case you read this ... well, I want to ask you what compn told me to ask you ...  :

there is no way to find that string in the packet dump. most sites dont work like that. some sites use xml playlists which work well with urlsnooper...  it wasnt made for flash streaming (RTMP). you'd have to ask mouser if he plans to do it.

Because for some reason, the Orbit Downloader is capable of doing this:
[attach]

So, technically speaking it must be possible
...

urlsnooper can pick up some of the stream by adding rtmp;netstream;playing to the 'also search for' box

you get some results like:
tcUrl... rtmp://oijqodbttndn.rtmphost.com/hostelworld

and play... paris_hipotelbellville

put them together:

rtmp://oijqodbttndn.rtmphost.com/hostelworld/paris_hipotelbellville.flv

works for me in rtmpdump1.6

hm ... but for my unexperienced eyes, this seems pretty hard to guess ....

Is there no way to find the string "rtmp://oijqodbttndn.rtmphost.com/hostelworld/paris_hipotelbellville.flv" in the raw dump or could URLsnooper be used to find/assemble this string automatically ?

compn, Thanks so much for your help and patience with a beginner (arrows on screenshots, etc. LOL)

I've been searching ever since you posted about rtmpdump 1.6, but all I could find (incl.forums,torrents,etc.) was rtmpdump 1.5a ... I used this on the link you found out by investigating. And it worked .... partially ... I could capture 27% of the stream, and when playing it back with vlcplayer, it had broken audio.

Ok, I got your torrent now and ....
WONDERFUL !!!! thanks so much for posting by the way!

I replaced 1.5 with 1.6 and now the captured stream is fine. No broken audio anymore.
Unfortunately it now captures only a couple of percents .... and then it stops. (Eventhough I have 256 kbps bandwiths and an idle connection).

With the --resume switch I can continue the capturing, but only with errors ....
And then it stops again... So I had to manually resume the capturing about 10-15 times, resulting in corrupt stream data, where the download sessions begin and end.
VLCplayer can still play the output file, but with audio/video artefacts every few seconds ....

I attached the output log of my cmd.exe window, in case that's of any help ....

PS: Can you post a link for rtmpdump 1.6 windows binaries ? I found mostly linux stuff and older versions for windows ...

Thanks so much for helping !!

Okay, I'm still learning ... how did you find out all this, because this is my screenshot and I can't see all this information you get ...

Yes, it's good to know. I am using Sandboxie.

hey ... (I promise that's my last question for now ...  )

I was hoping to use URLsnooper for retrieving the source of the video displayed here:
http://www.hostelworld.com/hostelvideo.php?HostelNumber=17136

But - quite logically probably - URLsnooper only tells me that it's a RTMP stream.

Any ideas about how to download the movie ? (It's not even in my browser cache or anywhere else on the disk ... )

ah great to hear it is solved.
and thanks for sharing the solution.. it may help others in the future.  thumbs up

Yes, I very much hope ... so that my wasn't completely useless (which is the most probable case :p )

With my sandbox installation, I first got the installation window from reply #9 and when clicking on OK, I received the error message as shown on screenshot #1 in my OP.

At least I'm prepared for the future and know I won't bother people with my sandbox anymore ... 

If "at one point" means "at what point", then my answer is that:

No, when double-clicking the .exe, I first see this window:

[attach]

and then ....
... what the heck !?!! .... it runs now, too ...

I'm SOOOO sorry, it seems as if this was also a problem of my sandbox installation ....   

just download the .exe from the link above and execute it. I'm almost sure, you'll get the same error (if your OS=Win).

I'm running XPpro SP2, english language

glad, we are on the same page now ...

the download was certainly not corrupted, but here are the hash values for you to check:

OK, rebooting didn't help.

But I hope you aren't angry I bothered you in vain, but I had my installation running sandboxed, and up until now, I never had problems with that (including low level things, driver installation, starting processes, etc.) ... so I was convinced, that wouldn't be the problem. But for the first time, it did turn out to be the culprit ...

thanks for helping anyways ...
there were three network adapters found now, so I guess your program will work

I have a BroadCom 440x 10/100 integrated controller. (if that's of any help)

okay, I'll try rebooting

Sorry, I hoped my post was clear. I try again:

First and foremost: URLsnoopersetup.exe simply DOES NOT work. Download it from the link in my reply#2 and execute it. It won't run, but fail with the error in my 1st screenshot.

Secondly: When extracting the files manually from URLsnoopersetup.exe and then running the program, URLsnooper.exe fails with the error in my 2nd screenshot if WinPcap has not been installed manually, too. Yes, as you said, the user should probably be informed, that he/she would have to install WinPcap, too.

PS: I have admin rights

hi folks.

I installed v2.23.01 manually, including WinPcap_4_1_beta5.exe
Program runs, but no network adapter can be detected. List is empty (so manual pick is impossible) and automatic detection results in a time-out. Any ideas ? I'm on XPpro sp2. thanks !

Yes, I know ... that solves the issue, when installing manually. I just thought I'd let you guys know. Because the .exe file you download here: http://www.donationcoder....loads/URLSnooperSetup.exe
fails when executing with the abovementioned error (the first one). And I don't think this is on purpose .... 

Hi folks.

Installation of URLsnooper v2.23.01 doesn't work on XP. When executing URLsnoopersetup.exe I get this error:

And when manually extracting the files from URLsnoopersetup.exe and starting URLsnooper.exe I get this error:
