Hi there,

I tried to open RTMP URLs on RTMPDump that I installed with Homebrew.
I created an alias into .bashrc_profile and now I use vlc to call the full path of VLC.
But I have a problem for to open some URLs.

By example, this works fine :
Code:
rtmpdump -r rtmp://83.169.58.36/live/Stream3 | Applications/VLC.app/Contents/MacOS/VLC - (or short alias name : vlc)

There is more examples here : http://www.vlc.eu.pn

But, with SimpleTV's URL live streaming this does not work :
Code:
rtmpdump -r rtmp://$OPT:rtmp-raw=rtmp://46.165.220.225/iguide playpath=oi51q05p0mi7nt4 swfUrl=http://www.iguide.to/player/secure_player_iguide_embed_token.swf live=1 pageUrl=http://www.iguide.to/ token=#ed%h0#w18623jsda6523lDGD | Applications/VLC.app/Contents/MacOS/VLC - (or short alias name : vlc)

After the launching, I have 2 errors :
ERROR: You must specify a hostname (--host) or url (-r "rtmp://host[: port]/playpath") containing a hostname

[0x1002b56d0] main stream error: cannot pre fill buffer

I think that it is necessary to add options in the url and to well separate the informations.
Someone, can he explain me what I have to make ?
Thank you for your help !

I found a solution from my initial post.
http://rtmpdump.mplayerhq.hu/rtmpdump.1.html

In my example of SimpleTV's URL towards RTMPDump, that gives :
Code:
rtmpdump -v -r "rtmp://46.165.220.225/iguide" -W "http://www.iguide.to/player/secure_player_iguide_embed_token.swf" -p "oi51q05p0mi7nt4" -y "http://www.iguide.to/" -T "#ed%h0#w18623jsda6523lDGD" --live | Applications/VLC.app/Contents/MacOS/VLC

That works fine.
Thank for your help :p
