[MPlayer-users] mplayer and rtsp://

[vitko]

I'm trying to record QuickTime stream from

http://www.uwtv.org/programs/displayevent.asp?rid=2514

but mplayer fails. Maybe it is just ignorance on my part.

See below:

$ /usr/local/bin/mplayer
rtsp://media-qt.ast.cac.washington.edu/isilon/uw_ebus_openso_1300k_qt.mov
-dumpstream -dumpfile opensource_religion.stream

I just found out I can get alternate Windows Media version by issuing

$ mplayer mms://media-wm.cac.washington.edu/ifs/uw_ebus_openso_1300k.asf
-dumpstream -dumpfile opensource_religion.stream

Anyway, what can be wrong with QuickTime version (well, may be 'File not
found' really means that the file is just missing ;-)
