Downloading videos (in flash applications) using python

2015-02-02 Thread Gabriel Ferreira
Hello, 

I need some help in downloading videos from flash applications in web using 
python. Is there any lib to deal with flash player using python?

The videos I need to download are, in fact, live streaming content.
You can see an example here:

Thanks for the Hint... But it seems not to support the website i mentioned... 
Is there a way to make it possible for any kind of video player in the net? 
Flash player... Since it's not a ordinary video... I'm trying to record & 
download a live streaming video!! 

Thx

I appreciate your help. I'm just afraid that Youtube-DL doesn't allow me to 
record or download a LIVE STREAMING VIDEO. Do you guys think it is possible, 
since I make some adjustments into the code of the library?

Hi Paul, I presume the stream operator doesn't want to prevent me from 
downloading or recording the videos. I just wanna know more about some lib that 
could be used to deal with Flash Player Applications... Or possibly, anything 
that could lead me to be able to get those streaming videos.

Thx

The original plan was doing it using python. But, anyway, I should build a 
robot program to do that task for me... Because I need to capture hundreds of 
hours of different videos... You mean that is difficult because it's Python... 
or it's difficult because it's a Flash Application?

Thx

Hi, Mark. 

I am developing a research project, which includes video analysis (computer 
vision, big data, data mining, etc). The first part of the project is about 
building a database containing a big amount of video of urban zones. I live in 
Brazil, so the plan is collecting videos from urban areas of Brazilian big 
cities, like Sao Paulo. 

I have to make this task "automatic". in other words, I don't want to manually 
download hundreds or thousands hours of videos. So I have to develop a "robot" 
to do that assingment for me. (I wish I could do that using Python).

I have found a good website that provides me live images from several cities in 
Brazil. So that's it! That's what I need. I was expecting to develop a program 
to record & download those videos, that are being broadcasted live on that 
website. So I would be able to form my database and continue my research.

The problem is that this particular website uses a flash player application do 
broadcast the live images of the urban areas. I'm not too familiar with Flash 
Applications. I don't know how to deal with them using Python. I was wondering 
if someone could help me solve this problem. The goal is recording & 
downloading those videos, from the mentioned website. And, yes, it has to be an 
automated program (no manual work).

I wish I had been clear with you guys!

THX!
