Chug a Bug

Hi this one is puzzling me, I can't seem to determine exactly whats going on here:
http://www.eurovisionsports.tv/london2012/index.html?video_id=7864
I can't seem to detect any RTMP traffic and it's apparently not AdobeHDS or AppleHLS... so I did a search for .xml pages and came up with this:
http://www.eurovisionsports.tv/london2012/xml/london2012.xml
so it looks like it's a .smil broadcast which I'm not familiar with... I downloaded one of the .smil files and ran it through a hex editor which revealed an Akamai server amongst other stuff (and seems to have XML data embedded in it):
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!DOCTYPE smil PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD SMIL 2.0//EN" "http://www.w3.org/2001/SMIL20/SMIL20.dtd">
<smil xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2001/SMIL20/Language">
<head>
<meta name="title" content="EBU-UER HD Flash Stream" />
<meta name="httpBase" content="http://culture-f.akamaihd.net/" />
</head>
<body>
<switch id="EBU-UER HD Flash Stream">
<video src="d19m01_1_700@s73516?primaryToken=1350500780_63fcde 4d75e07abf1d34aa56f1dcd6c1" system-bitrate="700000"/>
</switch>
</body>
</smil>
so any ideas on how to deal with this? cheers.
