How do I record the live streaming screen with audio? I read in some forums about Mplayer and VLC player. I tried using download helper, with no luck
These are the steps I do
The stream in your link seems to be a RTMP stream. Solution:
Install rtmpdump by opening your terminal with Ctrl + Alt + T and using this command:
sudo apt-get install rtmpdump
Redirect RTMP traffic through a local port. Copy & paste this command to the terminal window:
sudo iptables -t nat -A OUTPUT -p tcp --dport 1935 -j REDIRECT
Start rtmpsrv by typing in the terminal:
rtmpsrv
Go to the website where the video stream is and start playing the video.
After a while, rtmpsrv should output a longish command that will look something like this:
rtmpdump -r "rtmp://livestream.someaddress.com/live/" -a "live/" -f "LNX 11,6,602,171" -W "https://www.someaddress.org/live/player.swf" -p "http://live.tv/" -y "nnnnnn.sdp" -o nnnnnn.flv
Stop rtmpsrv with Ctrl + C. You can leave the website.
Before downloading, you need to delete the port forwarding you did previously. Copy & paste this command to the terminal:
sudo iptables -t nat -D OUTPUT -p tcp --dport 1935 -j REDIRECT
Finally, copy the longish command starting with "rtmpdump -r..." and paste it in the terminal. rtmpdump should start downloading the stream. You can stop the downloading with Ctrl + C.
