So I want to download an RTMP:// streaming video, and in the past I've been able to without any problem.
I've tried this movie with FLV recorder, Replay media catcher, and Orbit downloader. Orbit works, but no matter what settings I try... I only can download up to a certain point in a streaming movie and no further. The later versions of RMC also get the same result. To be specific I get about 300 MB of the movie, and I think it's stopping at the halfway point or so. It doesn't stop on the exact same frame or time every time, sometimes I get 316 megs, sometimes 321, once 340... but the full thing should be like 600.
If I watch the movie as intended, within the embedded flash player on the website, it works fine and I can watch to the end.
So what's going on here, and can it be fixed? This is the first streaming movie that seems to have beaten all the direct capture software options.
PS:
If possible, I'd like to download this directly instead of using some kind of screen capture software. I have gotten movies from the same site before (I'd link if it would help, except you need a registration so the link would do you no good anyway).
