Record streaming video with Linux
Written by edmond in Applications, Controls & Shell, Gnu-Linux, TV-Multimedia
Sometimes you see some streaming video and want to save hard disk to view it with ease. I, for example, am a fan of history, yellow, mysteries, and therefore are also a big fan of Carlo Lucarelli. So I made up his mind to save the episodes present on the Blu Notte Rai Click. Among the various programs that I installed on my Debian, certainly the most efficient, to me, and MPlayer. So to record streaming just
pass the option-dumpstream. So if we want to record and watch streaming an episode of Blue Night, simply issue the following command (all on one line):
mplayer-dumpstream mms: / / media.fastweb.it/WM9/raiclick/FMVRAI04000001013664.wmv-dumpfile blu_notte.avi
and find the video in the current directory, give them a few seconds, and then if we want we can also look at it as MPlayer is saving on hard disk, without being deceived by the words:
Stream not seekable!
Straight from the man, that's the meaning of these options:
-dumpfile <filename> (MPlayer only) Specify which file MPlayer should write flows (dump). Should be used with-dumpaudio /-dumpvideo /-dumpstream.-Dumpstream (MPlayer only) Dumps the flow track (audio / video) raw compressed. / Stream.dump. Useful when encoding / copying ( 'Rippa') from DVD or network. If you switch on the command line more than one-dumpaudio, dumpvideo-,-dumpstream only the last one will work.

Hello, in fact not easily available now, as raiclick has been tied more to Uncle Bill, once again, in fact the video and links you see if you use that kind of browser Internet Explorer. A council fast and convenient that we do is to install the addons for firefox / iceweasel named MediaPlayerConnectivity that allows you to see both the videos directly or addresses. Essert I hope I was helpful. Hello

That great, I was mad to download some free videos from a site that recommended to download their video streaming with VLC and other plugins for FF.
I tried what you've written in this post, and it worked well without any kind of problem!
THANKS!
