ffmpeg parameters from rtmpdump commandline

[freaknik]

Hey bros, I have been trying to watch streams on Vaugnlive. Livestreamer handles it fine but uses rtmpdump. So for captnshacky the commandline is:

rtmpdump.exe --playpath=live_captnshacky --app=live?JRjP5417u7pWdDrytS6MZDmsQ4H4OoiA --flv=- --live --pageUrl=https://vaughnlive.tv/captnshacky --rtmp=rtmp://192.240.105.178:443/live --swfVfy=http://vaughnlive.tv/4367338137/swf/VaughnSoftPlayer.swf

Can this be adapted to ffmpeg and played through serviio? I would love to know how to do it, thanks!

Yes, rtmpdump is just a wrapper around the librtmp that Serviio uses in FFmpeg.

This is rtmpdump docs: https://rtmpdump.mplayerhq.hu/rtmpdump.1.html
This it libmrtmp: https://rtmpdump.mplayerhq.hu/librtmp.3.html

So you just need to rename the arguments.

tried it but just cant get the syntax down and can't get it to work.

Instead of trying to get the params manually everytime, I loaded livestreamer to map the stream to external port, then put that port in Serviio console like this MYIPADRESS:PORT and it works on Chromecast. Still trying to get it to work on my Panasonic bluray but it could be my network is too slow.

It is kind of a pain to physically go to the server and start livestreamer in this way each time I want to watch a stream, but I would have had to do that anyway with ffmpeg parameters directly. I guess mark this as solved.
