brightcove plugin passes incorrect parameters to rtmpdump #517

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago 
Using the current GIT source code, when running the brightcove plug-in, if the 
$file variable in lib/FlashVideo/Site/Brightcove.pm does not receive a value, 
then the following error occurs:

$ ./get_flash_videos 
"http://www.theglobeandmail.com/news/news-video/video-world-gets-first-glimpse-a
t-royal-baby/article13373407/"
Using method 'brightcove' plugin version -1, set by base.pm for

I don't know enough PERL to figure this out, but maybe the plug-in is expecting 
a file reference in the URL rather than an article folder.  Either rate, it may 
need to check that $file has a value before including the --playpath parameter 
when calling rtmpdump.

Thanks.
