I am watching a Flash stream. I can watch the same stream in two different players (set up by someone else), but I don’t like any of them.
Is there a way I can find/get/extract the direct link to the flash stream that those two players are playing? So that I can watch it using a different player?
Edit: The player is streaming an RTMP stream, not an FLV video file.
Solution:
Download and decompile the flash file. The source of the stream should be pretty easy to find.
It’s possible that the player is generic, and the file/stream it is playing is being passed in as a param. Grep the webpage source code for “embed”/”swf” or text that’s near the flash object on the page. Then look at the contents of “param name”/”param value”
