RTMPDump v2.4                                      2011-07-20                                          RTMPGW(8)

rtmpgw is a server for streaming media content from RTMP out to HTTP.

       rtmpgw listens for HTTP requests that specify RTMP stream parameters and then returns the  RTMP  data  in
       the  HTTP response. The only valid HTTP request is "GET /" but additional options can be provided in URL-
       encoded fashion. Options specified on the command line will be used as defaults, which can be  overridden
       by options in the HTTP request.

HOME   The value of $HOME is used as the location for the .swfinfo file.

       The HTTP request
            GET /?r=rtmp:%2f%2fserver%2fmyapp&y=somefile HTTP/1.0
       is equivalent to the rtrmpdump(1) invocation
            rtmpdump -r rtmp://server/myapp -y somefile

       Note that only the shortform (single letter) options are supported.

$HOME/.swfinfo
              Cache of SWF Verification information

NetworkParameters
       These options define how to connect to the media server.

       --rtmp-rurl
              URL of the server and media content.

       --host-nhostname
              Overrides the hostname in the RTMP URL.

       --port-cport
              Overrides the port number in the RTMP URL.

       --protocol-lnumber
              Overrides the protocol in the RTMP URL.
                0 = rtmp
                1 = rtmpt
                2 = rtmpe
                3 = rtmpte
                4 = rtmps
                5 = rtmpts

       --socks-Shost:port
              Use the specified SOCKS4 proxy.

   ConnectionParameters
       These options define the content of the RTMP Connect request packet.  If correct values are not provided,
       the media server will reject the connection attempt.

       --app-aapp
              Name of application to connect to on the RTMP server. Overrides the app in the RTMP URL. Sometimes
              the  rtmpdump  URL  parser  cannot  determine  the  app  name  automatically,  so it must be given
              explicitly using this option.

       --tcUrl-turl
              URL of the target stream. Defaults to rtmp[e]://host[:port]/app/playpath.

       --pageUrl-purl
              URL of the web page in which the media was embedded. By default no value will be sent.

       --swfUrl-surl
              URL of the SWF player for the media. By default no value will be sent.

       --flashVer-fversion
              Version of the Flash plugin used to run the SWF player. The default is "LNX 10,0,32,18".

       --auth-ustring
              An authentication string to be appended to the Connect message. Using this option  will  append  a
              Boolean  TRUE  and then the specified string.  This option is only used by some particular servers
              and is deprecated. The more general --conn option should be used instead.

       --conn-Ctype:data
              Append arbitrary AMF data to the Connect message. The type must be B for Boolean, N for number,  S
              for  string, O for object, or Z for null. For Booleans the data must be either 0 or 1 for FALSE or
              TRUE, respectively. Likewise for Objects the data must be 0 or  1  to  end  or  begin  an  object,
              respectively. Data items in subobjects may be named, by prefixing the type with 'N' and specifying
              the  name before the value, e.g.  NB:myFlag:1. This option may be used multiple times to construct
              arbitrary AMF sequences. E.g.
                -C B:1 -C S:authMe -C O:1 -C NN:code:1.23 -C NS:flag:ok -C O:0

   SessionParameters
       These options take effect after the Connect request has succeeded.

       --playpath-ypath
              Overrides the playpath parsed from  the  RTMP  URL.  Sometimes  the  rtmpdump  URL  parser  cannot
              determine the correct playpath automatically, so it must be given explicitly using this option.

       --live-v
              Specify that the media is a live stream. No resuming or seeking in live streams is possible.

       --subscribe-dstream
              Name of live stream to subscribe to. Defaults to playpath.

       --start-Anum
              Start at num seconds into the stream. Not valid for live streams.

       --stop-Bnum
              Stop at num seconds into the stream.

       --buffer-bnum
              Set buffer time to num milliseconds. The default is 20000.

       --timeout-mnum
              Timeout  the  session after num seconds without receiving any data from the server. The default is
              120.

   SecurityParameters
       These options handle additional authentication requests from the server.

       --token-Tkey
              Key for SecureToken response, used if the server requires SecureToken authentication.

       --jtv-jJSON
              JSON token used by legacy Justin.tv servers. Invokes NetStream.Authenticate.UsherToken

       --swfhash-whexstring
              SHA256 hash of the decompressed SWF file. This option  may  be  needed  if  the  server  uses  SWF
              Verification,  but  see  the  --swfVfy  option  below.  The hash is 32 bytes, and must be given in
              hexadecimal. The --swfsize option must always be used with this option.

       --swfsize-xnum
              Size of the decompressed SWF file. This option may be needed if the server uses SWF  Verification,
              but see the --swfVfy option below. The --swfhash option must always be used with this option.

       --swfVfy-Wurl
              URL  of  the SWF player for this media. This option replaces all three of the --swfUrl, --swfhash,
              and --swfsize options. When this option is used, the SWF player is retrieved  from  the  specified
              URL and the hash and size are computed automatically. Also the information is cached in a .swfinfo
              file  in the user's home directory, so that it doesn't need to be retrieved and recalculated every
              time rtmpdump is run. The .swfinfo file records the URL, the time it was fetched, the modification
              timestamp of the SWF file, its size, and its hash. By default, the cached info will be used for 30
              days before re-checking.

       --swfAge-Xdays
              Specify how many days to use the cached SWF info before re-checking. Use 0 to always check the SWF
              URL. Note that if the check shows that the SWF file has the same modification timestamp as before,
              it will not be retrieved again.

   Miscellaneous--device-Daddress
              Listener IP address. The default is 0.0.0.0, i.e., any IP address.

       --sport-gport
              Listener port. The default is 80.

       --quiet-q
              Suppress all command output.

       --verbose-V
              Verbose command output.

       --debug-z
              Debug level output. Extremely verbose, including hex dumps of all packet data.

       --help-h
              Print a summary of command options.
