Hello everyone, this is my first time on the list and I have a question regarding the subscribe option in rtmpdump/librtmp. I&#39;m trying to pull a live feed from the edgecast CDN which now uses FCSubscribe. I&#39;ve been going through packet dumps with wireshark looking at the differences between a regular flash player when it pulls a feed from the CDN and when rtmpdump does it. It seems that the flash player issues FCsubscribe and then the createStream while rtmpdump/librtmp issues createStream first then FCsubscribe. I&#39;m not sure if this is the source of the problem but the end result with rtmpdump is that I get a response back that the stream is not found. Is there an a problem with my command arguments or is there a problem with compatibility? Also I&#39;ve noticed that rtmpdump does not allow me to set a playpath without the actual stream which should be actually taken from the subscribe parameter instead. I&#39;ve included my command arguments and partial packet dumps from both rtmpdump and flash player. Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated. PS I&#39;m running rtmpdump v2.3 if that helps.<br>
