Bug#695512: rtmpdump: RTMP_ReadPacket, failed to read RTMP packet header

[Vladmimir Stavrinov]

Package: rtmpdump
Version: 2.4+20111222.git4e06e21-1
Severity: normal

Some time I've got error in subject and there no video stream from rtmpdump while it can be played with browser. Here is an example only:

        rtmpdump -q -v -V \
        -r rtmpe://38.96.148.205/modelo \
        -f \"LNX 10,3,183,43\" \
        -a modelo -y tnt \
        -W http://www.skyonecast.com/player/player.swf \
        -p http://www.skyonecast.com |\
        mplayer -panscan 1 -quiet -title TNT -;


You can see this TV channel at the page:

And here is the tail of output of rtmpdump:

As usual these errors are seen with rtmpe.
