What if you just download it without streaming to stdout? |
|
The easy one never download functioned with RTLNow. |
|
@JJ-Jana you have to quote the url, otherwise youtube-dl only gets |
|
@jaimeMF, yes thats right. I thought with --verbose is full output. Maybe I use now without --verbose, but Download not working, I said in my first post, too. Just the stream works bit not for the last days. :( youtube-dl http://rtl-now.rtl.de/die-versicherungsdetektive/folge-2.php?film_id=201855 |
|
@JJ-Jana did you even read @jaimeMF post? You have to put the URL into quotes in order for shell not to drop everything after an ampersand (more on this): |
|
Oh, I am so sorry. I have not read right what jaime wrote. My english is not the best, excuse. Why I have to quote the url at RTLNow? On youtube.com I use everytime without quote and it works. And the download at RTLNow is not my problem. This dont works. I know it a logn time. But look now with quote: youtube-dl --verbose 'http://rtl-now.rtl.de/die-versicherungsdetektive/folge-2.php?film_id=201855&player=1&season=2015' ERROR: rtmpdump exited with code 1 Many errors, but this is not my problem. My problem is just the stream funktion dont works since some days any more .( Has no one an idea? |
That's how the shell works, the documented linked by @dstftw explains the details.
Since the download itself fails, streaming to stdout obviously won't work. We first need to make the download work. |
|
Oh, that was it. Okay Im sorry. mplayer <(youtube-dl --no-playlist -o - "URL") He says the vidro will not really downloaded just in the tmp and will delete after close or something right this. I think that rtlnow has change something thst we users do not this and have to use damn flas playet. :-( Other sites works great without this errors. Just rtlnow sites. But a codec is not misding right? |
|
Hello, my issue here can delete please. Thanks. |
|
Will be covered by nowtv.de in the next version. |
Hey,
I have a bug since today in the morning. I dont know what kind of bug it is. RTLNow are a Video on Demand site. Downloads of videos on RTLNow dont works, but that is okay, this is not the main Problem. The main problem is, I cant play over rtmpdumb the videos. Yesterday evening all works finde, but today, I use on my Debian 8 system in the root terminal an update:
youtube-dl -U
I have now the newsst version ---> youtube-dl is up-to-date (2015.05.10)
If I use youtube-dl for a Video on RTLNow, there is this error message:
mplayer <(youtube-dl --no-playlist -o - "http://rtl-now.rtl.de/die-versicherungsdetektive/folge-2.php?film_id=201855&player=1&season=2015")
