myfreecams.com: Not catching from Live Cam site

[Arno]

Catching with RMC4.1.16 from peekshows.com works perfectly... but when i try to catch Live Cams from myfreecams.com it doesn't work at all !!!

Is there anyone who managed to get content without problems or knows an solution ??

I tried various settings:
- In default mode RTMP it downloads only a very short piece !
(with auto resume on)

- In "record" mode it download the whole time .. but playback is only a short piece and then it freezes.
Also when i want to convert the .flv to .avi or .mp4 it stops after a second with an error message.

Odd with this is also when i press the red button to green to stop starting recording from new opened windows it immediately stops all recordings that are in progress.

Hopefully there is an solution...

Try to fix your recorded FLV files:
Some live streams produce FLV files that play back out of sync. How can I fix them?

Try to fix your recorded FLV files

I didn't mention it but after recording i did also "Fix Flv", but that didnt change anything.

But i just notice there is a diference in clicking 'fix duration' and expanding the time set section...
After expanding and clicking (not making chances) the zero's from the list are changed to numbers.
Making the flv itself atleast run from start to finish.

After fixing time you should be able to play and convert.

Did it solve your problem or not?

It did improve playback !
But still i think it would be best to have it download the stream instead of record.
As it still has hick-ups (freezes).
But with the download settings it only takes a short piece of the stream !


The good thing is that as it seams we have found 2 bugs:
1. The RED/GREEN button stops all recordings
2. The Fix FLV button 'fix duration' only works with selected drop down "file contents" and to click "Fix time".

Some streams are protected and can't be downloaded. I don't really know whether this is the case or not.

If you have hick-ups when recording while having smooth playback, then it is a good idea to submit a support ticket.

It stops recordings in the RTMP recording mode.

Some servers send wrong time stamp or don't send it at all. Not sure whether this can be fixed automatically or not.
Since the developer fixes duration automatically, there should be reasons not to fix time the same way. Will ask the developer.
