Hello all...
I'm trying to download the episodes of HGTV's Top Ten from HGTV.ca... (they aren't posted on the US site, only the Canadian site)
more specifically, the episode showing Home Theatres.

The first problem was that you need to be in Canada to view the videos... So I used "FoxyProxy" to connect to a paid Canadian proxy so it appears like I am in Canada... I can now view the videos just fine.
Now I just need to download them...
I used URL Snooper (http://all-streaming-media.com/find-stream-URL/Project-URL-Snooper-Find-the-actual-stream-URL-Free-download.htm) and this is the link that I got:
rtmp://cp68811.edgefcs.net/ondemand/?auth=dbEc5dsa4dIcsaRaUaGaJdXd5ataCbKaLbK-blAfac-4q-d9i-8qtDGqOpEC0M7&aifp=1234&slist=Canwest_Broadcast_En tertainment/<break>Canwest_Broadcast_Entertainment/HGTV_HGTVsTopTen_2019.flv
I used rtmpdump (http://all-streaming-media.com/record-video-stream/rtmpdump-freeware-console-RTMP-downloading-application.htm) with the following code:
"C:\rtmpdump\rtmpdump.exe" -r "rtmp://cp68811.edgefcs.net/ondemand/?auth=dbEc5dsa4dIcsaRaUaGaJdXd5ataCbKaLbK-blAfac-4q-d9i-8qtDGqOpEC0M7&aifp=1234&slist=Canwest_Broadcast_En tertainment/<break>Canwest_Broadcast_Entertainment/HGTV_HGTVsTopTen_2019.flv" -o "c:\video.flv"
The response that I get is "connecting..." Then it goes back to the command prompt...
Then I tried connecting via the Proxy using the following code:
"C:\rtmpdump\rtmpdump.exe" -r "rtmp://cp68811.edgefcs.net/ondemand/?auth=dbEc5dsa4dIcsaRaUaGaJdXd5ataCbKaLbK-blAfac-4q-d9i-8qtDGqOpEC0M7&aifp=1234&slist=Canwest_Broadcast_En tertainment/<break>Canwest_Broadcast_Entertainment/HGTV_HGTVsTopTen_2019.flv" -S 209.47.140.252:37474 -o "c:\video.flv"
But somewhere I need to enter my login details for the proxy... so it just hangs on "connecting..." again...
I think the problem has something to do with spoofing my location to being in Canada. Any thoughts? :confused:
Thanks in advance for all of your help!!!
