jfath: could you post more of that log. The lines directly above what you posted has needed information. when installing librtmp did you use prefix=/usr ? it defaults to prefix=/usr/local and won't be used by xbmc.
I think I have a solution to the flash access problems. They won't serve my flash access videos to my account so I can't test right now. I will try it on my friends connection. I know I am paranoid but I think I am singled out.
apparently the flash access module is downloaded separately and executed by the flash plugin. this seems horrible. I couldn't even attempt to reverse any code they run without the module. It seems really shady to have a feature of the program excluded but instead downloaded. This seems so wrong to me. I would never want to run flash knowing it was executing code outside my control and they can dynamically change at will.
This was all introduced in flash 10.1 and was most likely a response to rtmpdump/librtmp. They have lost the battle on rtmpe and swf verification. Adobe called these DRM when they are really just a secure transport method and client authentication.
Flash Access actually encrypts the files on the rtmp server and you get a license token used to decrypt it.
Currently we have a license token and rtmp link for flash access available to us. the rtmp link works fine with librtmp but content is now encrypted so xbmc can't find codecs to decode it. The license token is used by the Flash Access black box to decrypt the video and audio so it can be decoded.
This is full DRM so trying to reverse it is illegal in my country under the DMCA. I am not a lawyer but this is my understanding. It just seem unlikely a legal option to use Flash Access content in XBMC will happen. We can just try to avoid them serving them to us.
