RTMP url test, some work some does not

Postby whome » 28 Apr 2009 08:54

Hello,
All famous rtmp:// question again so bear with me.

System: WinXP-SP3, vlc-1.0.0-pre1-20090401-2206

I found one valid RTMP url from the forum post. I can play it for 10 seconds fine, so my VLC version is not completely broken.
streaming url: rtmp://www2.k-tv.at/live/ktv
webpage with flash player: http://www2.k-tv.at/streaming/index.html

I am trying to playback music.indiana.edu videos in VLC player but no luck. I did found(?) an internal rtmp urls using Orbit Downloader.

Working rtmp webpage gives this Orbit URL:

Code: Select all

rtmp://www2.k-tv.at/live|live|ktv|http://www2.k-tv.at/streaming/playbackengine.swf|http://www2.k-tv.at/streaming/index.html&OBT_fname=ktv.flv
Music.Indiana webpage gives this Orbit URL:

Code: Select all

rtmp://streaming.music.indiana.edu:1935/onDemand|onDemand|mp4:media/20090327_VarRussianTheme-h264-480.m4v|http://music.indiana.edu/iumusiclive/streaming/flash/player.swf|http://music.indiana.edu/iumusiclive/streaming/&OBT_fname=20090327_VarRussianTheme-h264-480.m4v.flv
Then trying different variations of rtmp urls in VLC all failed, this is an url using same Orbit url build syntax as working one:

Code: Select all

rtmp://streaming.music.indiana.edu:1935/onDemand/mp4:media/20090327_VarRussianTheme-h264-480.m4v
Indiana is using Wowza Flash streaming server. Do anyone know more about rtmp url format or VLC issues. Messages window dump means nothing to me. More pros may try an url I gave to see messages, does it give any hints about the problem?

This is a VLC issue, hopefully one student will work on it soon.

Is this issue resolved within the latest nightly VLC?
