How do I play an RTMP stream in VLC?
I'm trying to get a RTMP stream to play on VLC and the URL is in this format:
rtmp://76.10.10.240/liverepeater/mp4:name.mp4
I'm able to record the stream with CooJah but I only want to watch it via VLC. Any ideas?

You can play RTMP in VLC with the help of RTMPDump .
rtmpdump -v -r "rtmp://ip-address/app-name/streamname" -o - | "vlc" -
I'll check it out...

Sorry, but VLC doesn't support rtmp streaming just yet. If you really want to stream RTMP, you could use flowplayer since they support it, but it's not as easy as using VLC.

Yes! Now you can do it in VLC. Because the new versions of VLC from v1.1 onwards support rtmp stream playing.
- Just Click on Media.
- Click on open network stream / or press Ctrl/command + N
- Write rtmp URL.
- Enjoy!

On Mac/OSX, I was able to get this to work with a modification of Unnikrishnan's answer. The important part being the path to the VLC executable (which may vary by system)
Recorded Stream:
rtmpdump -r rtmp://path/to/stream | /Applications/VLC.app/Contents/MacOS/VLC -
Live stream
rtmpdump -r rtmp://path/to/stream --live | /Applications/VLC.app/Contents/MacOS/VLC -
You should then see a VLC window open, with fs://0
listed in the playlist area. Double-click that entry to view the actual stream.
I've tried rtmpdump -r rtmp://path/to/stream --live -o | "c:Program Files (x86)VideoLANVLCvlc.exe" on windows 8.1 but it seems it does not work, any idea ?

rtmp://Server URL/live/Stream Name
e.g
rtmp://10.154.136.221/live/RTMP1
This information solved my<playpath>
problem. I converted my rtmp linkrtmp://streaming.perculus.com/vods3<playpath>flv:blabla.flv
tortmp://streaming.perculus.com/vods3/live/flv:blabla.flv
Now it works perfectly.

You need to use mplayer or at least rtmpdump from mplayer as vlc has no rtmp support currently.
