Versions RTMPdump

RTMPDump rtmpdump est un toolkit pour les flux RTMP sous toutes leurs formes à savoir : rtmp://, rtmpt://, rtmpe://, rtmpte://, et rtmps://. Édité sous licence GPL, le projet a été stoppé pour satisfaire aux exigences d'Adobe qui ne souhaitait pas que puisse être disponible un moyen de télécharger des flux RTMP encryptés (AdobeHDS). Deux forks du programme ont pris la suite à savoir : flvstreamer et xVideoServiceThief

• SIGPIPE portability fix
• remove "not supported" comment for RTMPE

13 November 2009, v1.9

• Handle more signals to reduce risk of unresumable/corrupted partially streamed files
• Fixed >2GB file handling
• Added --hashes option for a hash progress bar instead of byte counter
• Fix to allow win32 to use binary mode on stdout.
• Added auto-unpause for buffer-limited streams

1 November 2009, v1.7

• added --subscribe option for subscribing to a stream
• added --start / --stop options for specifying endpoints of a stream
• added --debug / --quiet / --verbose options for controlling output

17 May 2009, v1.6

• big endian alignment fix, should fix sparc64 and others
• moved timestamp handling into RTMP protocol innings, all packets have absolute timestamps now, when seeking the stream will start with timestamp 0 even if seeked to a later position!
• fixed a timestamp bug (should fix async audio/video problems)

30 Apr 2009, v1.5a

• fixed host name resolution bug (caused unexpected crashes if DNS resolution was not available)
• also using the hostname in tcUrl instead of the IP turns out to give much better results

27 Apr 2009, v1.5

• RTMPE support (tested on Adobe 3.0.2,3.0.3,3.5.1, Wowza)
• SWFVerification (tested on Adobe 3.0.2,3.0.3,3.5.1)
• added AMF3 parsing support (experimental feauture, only some primitives, no references)
• added -o - option which allows the stream to be dumped to stdout (debug/error messages go to stderr)
• added --live option to enable download of live streams
• added support for (Free)BSD and Mac (untested, so might need more fixing, especially for PPC/sparc64)
• fixed a bug in url parsing
• added a useful application: streams, it will start a streaming server and using a request like http://localhost/?r=rtmp://.... you can restream the content to your player over http

11 Mar 2009, v1.4

• fixed resume bug: when the server switches between audio/video packets and FLV chunk packets (why should a server want to do that? some actually do!) and rtmpdump was invoked with --resume the keyframe check prevented rtmpdump from continuing
• fixed endianness
• added win32 and arm support (you can cross-compile it onto your Windows box or even PDA)
• removed libboost dependency, written a small parser for rtmp urls, but it is more of a heuristic one since the rtmp urls can be ambigous in some circumstances. The best way is to supply all prameters using the override options like --play, --app, etc.
• fixed stream ids (from XBMC tree)

19 Jan 2009, v1.3b

• fixed segfault on Mac OS/BSDdue to times(0)
• Makefile rewritten

16 Jan 2009, v1.3a

• fixed a bug introduced in v1.3 (wrong report bytes count), downloads won't hang anymore

10 Jan 2009, v1.3

• fixed audio only streams (rtmpdump now recognizes the stream and writes a correct tag, audio, video, audio+video)
• improved resume function to wait till a the seek is executed by the server. The server might send playback data before seeking, so we ignore up to e.g. 50 frames and keep waiting for a keyframe with a timestamp of zero.
• nevertheless resuming does not always work since the server sometimes doesn't resend the keyframe, seeking in flash is unreliable

02 Jan 2009, v1.2a

• fixed non-standard rtmp urls (including characters + < > ; )
• added small script get_hulu which can download hulu.com streams (US only) (many thanks to Richard Ablewhite for the help with hulu.com)

01 Jan 2009, v1.2:

• fixed FLV streams (support for resuming extended)
• fixed hanging download at the end
• several minor bugfixes
• changed parameter behaviour: not supplied parameters are omitted from the connect packet, --auth is introduced (was automatically obtained from url before, but it is possible to have an auth in the tcurl/rtmp url only without an additional encoded string in the connect packet)

28 Dec 2008, v1.1a:

• fixed warnings, added -Wall to Makefile

28 Dec 2008, v1.1:

• fixed stucking downloads (the buffer time is set to the duration now, so the server doesn't wait till the buffer is emptied
• added a --resume option to coninue incomplete downloads
• added support for AMF_DATE (experimental, no stream to test so far)
• fixed AMF parsing and several small bugs (works on 64bit platforms now)

24 Dec 2008, v1.0:

• First release
