    Hi,

    Streambox Vcr 1.0 beta 31smf+ fails to download file.

    Could you help me overcome this? Thanks.


    The streaming video is:

    rtsp://12.170.145.134:554/jdrive/smil/e092903_syria.smi?cloakport=8080,554,7070

    SMIL file content is:

    <smil>
    <body>
    <par endsync="last">
    <video src="rtsp://.../e092903_syria1.rm" region="videoregion"/>
    </par>
    <par endsync="last">
    <video src="rtsp://.../e092903_syriaginsberg.rm" region="videoregion"/>
    </par>
    <par endsync="last">
    <video src="rtsp://.../e092903_syria2.rm" region="videoregion"/>
    </par>

    </body>
    </smil>

    The best information on streaming media recording. StreamBox VCR and other recording software.

    StreamBox VCR does not work with smi and smil redirector metafiles. If the smi or smil redirector is rtsp protocol it will not even download the redirector file correctly.

    Some methods for rtsp protocol smi and smil redirectors.

    1. Packet Sniffer Software.
    Example: Project URL Snooper.
    See our FAQ.
    http://pub25.ezboard.com/fstreemeboxvcrfrm7

    Playing.
    rtsp://12.170.145.134:554/jdrive/smil/e092903_syria.smi
    Project URL Snooper finds.
    rtsp://video.c-span.org/odrive/15days/e092903_syria1.rm
    rtsp://video.c-span.org/odrive/15days/e092903_syriaginsberg.rm
    rtsp://video.c-span.org/odrive/15days/e092903_syria2.rm

    2. Some recorders can correctly download rtsp protocol smi and smil redirectors.
    Example: Net Transport
    See our FAQ.
    http://pub25.ezboard.com/fstreemeboxvcrfrm7

    Downloading.
    rtsp://12.170.145.134:554/jdrive/smil/e092903_syria.smi
    Net Transport gets a file that contains this information.
    <video src=\"rtsp://video.c-span.org/odrive/15days/e092903_syria1.rm\"
    <video src=\"rtsp://video.c-span.org/odrive/15days/e092903_syriaginsberg.rm\"
    <video src=\"rtsp://video.c-span.org/odrive/15days/e092903_syria2.rm\"

    3. Some recorders can correctly parse those smi or smil redirectors and download the streaming media.
    Example: HiDownload or OEP-OEE Offline Explorer Pro or Enterprise.
    See our FAQ.
    http://pub25.ezboard.com/fstreemeboxvcrfrm7

    Downloading.
    rtsp://12.170.145.134:554/jdrive/smil/e092903_syria.smi
    HiDownload or OEP-OEE will download the streaming media files from this redirector.
