Note that RTMP is not supported by php native functions, so you'll have to use curl (or similar). I don't know if it has changed, but in 2010, curl did not support RTMP protocol by default (see http://curl.haxx.se/mail/archive-2010-07/0020.html). – tmuguet Feb 03 '13 at 22:51

Curl wont work. its a different protocol and it doesn't support it. – Danilo Kobold Feb 03 '13 at 22:54

Next time do a deeper research on google and stackoverflow.
This article explains how to check if a rtmp stream is up or down using PHP and rtmpdump.
How to check RTMP source stream is live or not?
if you prefer/need doing this with php native you can use this library
UPDATE
in your case it will need to run :
rtmpdump -v -v -r "rtmp://flash.onthefly.nhl.com/ondemand/NHLHighlights//mp4:20122013/02/0118/2_118_nsh_sjs_1213_h_continuous_1600K_16x9_1.mp4" -W "http://nhl.cdn.neulion.net/u/videocenter/flex/images/evp.swf"
Check rtmpdump for more info.

I had tried both of those with no success. this is what happens with rtmp dump http://i50.tinypic.com/30j47zo.png – DanJ Feb 03 '13 at 23:03

that didn't work (probably my fault doing something wrong), but I found a alternative to checking rtmp, thanks for your help I appreciate it! – DanJ Feb 04 '13 at 01:20

@DaniloKobold what was your alternative solution? I also need to check if an rtmp stream is up. – benedict_w Apr 25 '13 at 15:28
