How can I verify that an RTMP stream URL is working?
I was able to verify that it's working using rtmpdump found here:
https://github.com/mstorsjo/rtmpdump
Usage:
rtmpdump -r "rtmp://example.fcod.llnwd.net/a1111/e11/test/example/file.flv" -o test.flv
You might be able to open up a "network location" via VLC player.
This will definitely work: http://www.vlc.eu.pn/ (Original link broken, archived page linked)
Just go to the link above and test your rtmp url, easy and fast!
