Not sure if it still works (installing VLC to find out), but try this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lDqU2AFhwu8 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lDqU2AFhwu8 EDIT: with rtmpdump and mplayer it can be done with the following apparently[1] rtmpdump -r "rtmp://cp39920.live.edgefcs.net:1935/live" -a "live" -f "WIN 10,3,183,7" -W "http://cdn1.ustream.tv/swf/4/viewer.rsl.755.swf" -p "http://www.nasa.gov/multimedia/nasatv/ustream.html" -y "nasahd@55196" -o - -v | mplayer - [1] http://stream-recorder.com/forum/play-watch-view-nasa-tv-hd-ustream-t10260.html?s=d4078228e1f41d955770854a75f4ea43&amp http://stream-recorder.com/forum/play-watch-view-nasa-tv-hd-...;

http://nasa-f.akamaihd.net/public_h264_700@54826 http://nasa-f.akamaihd.net/public_h264_700@54826 should work in any H.264 + HTTP capable video player.

  Confirmed working in VLC 2.0, many thanks.

    Also works in MPlayerX, as an added bonus it appears to be using hardware decode which it wasn't via flash (MB Air 2012).

  Definitely much nicer than the solution I found. How did you find that so easily?

    I have Flash handy, so I just utilized the Resources tab in Chrome's Web Inspector to see the video resource Flash was actually streaming. This approach works for a large percentage of CDN-based streaming video, which rarely has any unique authentication (as sharing any kind of per-user state with the CDN edges would be quite difficult).

      Interesting, I tried doing the same thing and couldn't since it was getting it over rtmp from another cdn, which was how i found mine. Apparently NASA has more CDNs for video than others that i've run into.

  That didn't work for me in VLC on Windows 7, but this does: http://nasa-f.akamaihd.net/public_h264_700@54826?v=1.1.12&fp=LNX%11,0,1,152 http://nasa-f.akamaihd.net/public_h264_700@54826?v=1.1.12&#3...
