As I said before you need to look into the RTP protocol. There are utilities for proxying and dumping the stream parameters. Once they are known you can pull them in using rtmpdump. Sometimes the stream parameters can be determined from the web page. get_iplayer, for instance, can create rtp parameters for BBC programs and then stream them with rtmpdump, since the parameters seem to be well defined and consistent. But every streaming site is going to be different. I posted the link to the rtmpdump utilities in my other post. You may be to drive rtmpdump from Python. -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
