Opening RTMP stream with VLC v2

Postby sergeyrar » 17 Jan 2014 17:35

Hi,

I captured an RTMP stream using wireshark, and I want to play it on VLC.

I replay the stream using tcpreplay the following way:

sudo tcpreplay --intf1=eth0 2

2 is the PCAP file with the RTMP stream.

When I try opening the stream in VLC : RTMP://204.40.2.10:1935
I get the following error message
"VLC is unable to open the MRL 'rtmp://204.40.2.10:1935'. Check the log for details."

What am I doing wrong ?

There's not enough parameters provided.

Try this RTMP player (RTMP_pplayer), to play RTMP in your browser.
You will see that you need more than just the URL.
