I believe I've fixed all my issues with SuperTV and all the other addons that use librtmp on Windows. I've installed the MinGW C compiler, GnuWin32 Make, and the necessary libraries (zlib and openssl) and built the latest revision from the git repository. The compiled size of the new DLL is 1.39MB.

I will provide my compiled DLL if anyone would like to test it, or you can follow the steps I've taken and compile it for yourself if you don't trust strange DLLs.

Here is the git hub for rtmpdump:
http://repo.or.cz/w/rtmpdump.git

On the top line of the shortlog, at the far end, click the "zip" to download the latest snapshot and save that file to your system. Extract the folder somewhere, like in your C: drive's root directory for example. Next, go to http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/packages/make.htm and download the complete package setup. Install this package. Then go to http://sourceforge.net/projects/mingw/fi...-20111118/ and download the MinGW-get installer. Install this package and, when asked, select at least the C compiler to install.

Next, and I may have done this the hard way, download the latest zlib and OpenSSL libraries. I downloaded the -lib.zip files and extracted the contents of /include and /lib into the same named folders under C:\MinGW. One final step before compiling, you need to go into the Advanced System Settings (Control Panel > System > option on left side in Windows 7, or right-click My Computer > Properties > Advanced tab in Windows XP). At the bottom of this window, click Environment Variables. On the next window, in the System Variables box, find Path and double click it. Go to the end and append the following:

Code:

;C:\Program Files\GnuWin32\Bin;C:\MinGW\bin

If you're on a 64-bit Windows, it should be Program Files (x86). Please verify your folder names, or modify appropriately if you've changed the default folders. Now, you can go to a command prompt, change directories to where you've extracted the ZIP file from the git repository, and go into the librtmp subfolder. In this folder you'll run "make" to compile the DLL. Like this:

Code:

cd\rtmpdump\librtmp
make SYS=mingw

If you've done everything correctly, it will compile, but give some error about not finding "ln" or something. You should have a librtmp.dll now in that folder. Copy this to XBMC\system\players\dvdplayer.

And that should be it. I'll do some more testing but I believe this has fixed most issues. Be sure to back up your old librtmp.dll. Please provide feedback if I've messed something up in the install steps or if this is working or not.

For the lazy, here is my DLL: Link.
