Hi, all

My purpose is to get the sid from the streaming media, so I can watch the encrypted video streaming on Linux. The service is free available for anyone on http://hichannel.hinet.net/player2/live-f1.jsp?id=501, which is a live broadcasting of Olympic game.

However, the service only grant the user DRM license after the user watch a short video AD, and the video player window is embedded in the browser.

The problem is I could dump the DRM-crypted asf file by using the sniffed mms url in mplayer on linux. But, when I lunched the drmdbg.exe and play the dumped asf file on windows, the player won't give me the drm license even though I open the url in IE first. It always ask me to watch the video via the web interface. :(

Is there any way to by pass the web interface licensing or retrieve the license in the Microsoft media player ?
