Description of your issue, suggested solution and other information

I'm trying to download a video from techtalks.tv with the above command, which fails. Looking through the existing issues related to techtalks.tv, I found another issue. The link mentioned in that issue does not fail, I can download that video without problems. So I think the problem isn't in my rtmpdump installation.
