Capturing RTMP

Anyone??!!!!!

This is crazy! SURELY there's a way to save a grab from a live stream from Flash Media Server to disk. I can't believe that this is impossible, or that no one has done it before...

Can anyone give me any pointers at all?? I've been trying all sorts of stuff to no avail, and I'm running out of ideas...

I need your help!! ;-)

Thanks in advance,
K.

Thank for the tip ekameleon, but unfortunately this does not work....

I was using this workaround in the past with Flex Builder 3 beta 1, but that is no longer available for use. So now in Flex Builder beta 2, this has been caught, and even setting the stream to null then using the bitmapdata.draw method throws the error as well. So with the stream attached or unattached, I cannot draw the video as it throws the 2123 error.

Anyone have any more advice, or know of a way to capture a frame of a RTMP stream other than BitmapData.draw??

Thanks,
K.

Not in FMS 2. In FMS 3, I believe there is a server-side setting that allows (or doesnt) client-side applications to grab a bitmap from a live stream.
