Streaming Videos Save to Server?

[qadeer_ahmad]

Hi,
I have streaming videos url now i want to save video on my server.
Is it Possible in PHP?
I try to use cURL for this purpose e.g.

$url = "
http://vp.video.google.com/videodownload?version=0&secureurl=tAAAAG7ggqAHSiJjpW0D3w4aYTWMt8S_dC2375mvvA8BjcduktxqIrT1TDF0HVE8bMJAdlIcqXmD9ObiGuRECCtbh-0mK8t-CmJG_YY52J9PQrZpomgh-WN_YOFz2yhmRDzUNFGiyu-O7lzYzyzspOX6vrf5qwmwNwW5udIplPwm-1CyiO5hiXtcw0FSxhzciEU3kEHUk5pNkh8TtmD0xjOHLT5elw9oh0HL4MVwd6PloHIDLZ4E6fGWfHqimwxWBtJxnQ&sigh=LDVIawBhi0Yh7-x_bkLfGwEFoNM&begin=0&len=265099&docid=-8627390594491892243
";

$ch = curl_init($url);

curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION, 1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_UNRESTRICTED_AUTH, 1);
$data = curl_exec($ch);
print_r(curl_getinfo($ch));
curl_close($ch);

echo $data;

if you try to run link directly it work fine but here i got this.

Array ( [url] => http:// http://vp.video.google.com/videodownload?version=0&secureurl=tAAAAG7ggqAHSiJjpW0D3w4aYTWMt8S_dC2375mvvA8BjcduktxqIrT1TDF0HVE8bMJAdlIcqXmD9ObiGuRECCtbh-0mK8t-CmJG_YY52J9PQrZpomgh-WN_YOFz2yhmRDzUNFGiyu-O7lzYzyzspOX6vrf5qwmwNwW5udIplPwm-1CyiO5hiXtcw0FSxhzciEU3kEHUk5pNkh8TtmD0xjOHLT5elw9oh0HL4MVwd6PloHIDLZ4E6fGWfHqimwxWBtJxnQ&sigh=LDVIawBhi0Yh7-x_bkLfGwEFoNM&begin=0&len=265099&docid=-8627390594491892243 [http_code] => 0 [header_size] => 0 [request_size] => 0 [filetime] => -1 [ssl_verify_result] => 0 [redirect_count] => 0 [total_time] => 0 [namelookup_time] => 0 [connect_time] => 0 [pretransfer_time] => 0 [size_upload] => 0 [size_download] => 0 [speed_download] => 0 [speed_upload] => 0 [download_content_length] => 0 [upload_content_length] => 0 [starttransfer_time] => 0 [redirect_time] => 0 )

Any Idea to do this.....

Thanks in advance for this help.

You can do this to save a file with curl:

$ch = curl_init($url);
$location = "video.flv";
$fp = fopen ($location, "w");


curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION, 1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_UNRESTRICTED_AUTH, 1); 
curl_exec ($ch);
curl_close ($ch);
fclose ($fp);

I think that is what you wanted

Hi The Master,

Warning: fopen( http://vp.video.google.com/videodownload?version=0&secureurl=tAAAAG7ggqAHSiJjpW0D3w4aYTWMt8S_dC2375mvvA8BjcduktxqIrT1TDF0HVE8bMJAdlIcqXmD9ObiGuRECCtbh-0mK8t-CmJG_YY52J9PQrZpomgh-WN_YOFz2yhmRDzUNFGiyu-O7lzYzyzspOX6vrf5qwmwNwW5udIplPwm-1CyiO5hiXtcw0FSxhzciEU3kEHUk5pNkh8TtmD0xjOHLT5elw9oh0HL4MVwd6PloHIDLZ4E6fGWfHqimwxWBtJxnQ&sigh=LDVIawBhi0Yh7-x_bkLfGwEFoNM&begin=0&len=265099&docid=-8627390594491892243 ) [function.fopen]: failed to open stream: No error in C:\xampp\htdocs\usenet\getVidio.php on line 24

File is not on my server that why its not open with (W) mode

fopen is meant to be the location of the file you want to write to on your server. So it would be like this:

fopen('videos/video1.flv');
