Soundcloud rtmp error

[benoon]

Example: https://soundcloud.com/polyvinyl-records/pretend-you-love-me

Gives: http://media.soundcloud.com/stream/fkDEP56WvZsM?stream_token=lHuvT

Now it looks like:

rtmp://ec-rtmp-media.soundcloud.com:80/fkDEP56WvZsM.128.mp3

for some tracks.

Could you check if it still fails?, it's working for me.

@benoon It's working for me as well.

You are right but it looks like it's not rtmp anymore. That's why it's working.
Maybe soundcloud just tested rtmp on some tracks and is not using it anymore?

Ok, I'll close it now, but if you find this problem again comment here or open a new issue

This issue seem to have reappered again on some tracks. Today I've tried the same links again, now they seem to have both mp3 and rtmp links in them, instead of only rtmp. Not sure, if it is going to be an issue again, or is it a constant issue.

@Avol please open a new issue with the output of youtube-dl THE_SONG_URL --verbose.
