Subject: Re: Streaming Video Media
Then you should replace your "little utility". There's a nice script in the
Debian repositories, it's called 'youtube-dl'. Command line. Pass it the URL
as
an argument and it downloads every YT video. Similar scripts exist for files
stored elsewhere and it's generally not hard to extract video data from
flash
streams. If it's on the user's screen it may just as well be on the user's
hard
drive.
You can just make it *hard* enough, so that Joe average user won't be able
to
store the file. You'll have to live with the black sheep though who will
manage
to get around your obfuscation techniques.

You totally right, if the data comes to the machine, you gotta be able to
get it.
The rest is just "hassle factor"
but I couldnt figure out what they doing on that page...
I think using ajax to turn an ID into the actual flash address and then
using a bit of javascript to setup the embedded flash.
So I thought stuff this, I cant even find the flash url... I'll just look
for another site.
Found one, found the flash url, pulled it down and its "blank" when it
plays.
So they got me... I must be Joe Ave ;)
No flash expert, but I think they using one flash to load another flash, and
they check something, maybe browser type... they got me ;)
The way I do it works on other flash videos... but not on this one.
Thanks, I will try the 'youtube-dl' util next time ;)
