Linux Only and Requires rtmpdump
Updated for the new batc.org.uk streamer!
rtmpdump --live -r "rtmp://rtmp.batc.org.uk/live/<stream-id>" -o output.flv
rtmpdump will print any metadata associated with the stream, often containing a description of the hardware being used to capture/encode the video.
output.flv will contain the same codecs used by the stream encoder, and should be playable in VLC or similar media players.
Finding the stream id
The stream ID is the short lower case string (normally the callsign) at the end of the URL for the stream.
