redirect rtmp

[Graycode]

It's a fault of the way they coded Flash, one of the many things that makes it insecure by design. Send hate mail to Adobe (I have).

RTMP first tries direct connections using the ports you mentioned. RTMP is a part of Flash, therefore it's running within the browser. Only as a last resort if it was unable to establish its direct connection attempts will it finally abide by your browser's proxy settings. That Sucks.

Note that my earlier post mentioned personal firewall, not a generic network appliance. I use the old Kerio v2.15, which gives me the ability to permit / deny rules by specific program within my PC. With that, I permit my browsers to connect to my proxy, and I deny each of my browsers the ability to connect anywhere other than the proxy.

All their attempts to bypass the proxy will fail. With that, all RTMP is forced to go through the proxy.

A generic network firewall can not have rules for particular programs. Some personal firewalls can't either. But if you did have one that could control access for particular programs in your PC, then you'd be able to force Flash to go through the proxy -- and then go through TOR or whatever you desire.
