I have further investigated this issue. this site seems to contain three types of videos and all of them use http protocol. you just need to figure out the correct url of stream.

1. first type of videos are that in which video is protected by Microsoft DRM and requires valid license to play or unDRM. check my first post

Code:

http://stream-recorder.com/forum/showpost.php?p=27643&postcount=5

2. second type of videos are that in which video is not protected by Microsoft DRM but it uses a custom encryption which can be decoded only by EdgeStream while playing the video. That's the reason why we were not able to play the downloaded video for following url:

Code:

http://cycle.edgestream.com/abs-cbn%2Fmsp-pl/es-114047-MBR.asx

3. third type of videos are that which are neither protected by Microsoft DRM nor by their own custom encryption. these videos can be directly downloaded and played.
Example url: Imortal Episode 1

Code:

http://tfcnow.abs-cbn.com/index_freevideos.aspx

Download link:

Code:

mmsh://abscbn7.streamguys.us/abs-cbn/teleserye/imortal/20101004-imortal-low.wmv

So how to save the second type of free videos?

I have developed an application which can dump second type of videos.

you can try following link for testing second free video from same show.

Code:

http://cycle.edgestream.com/abs-cbn%2Fmsp-pl/es-114121-MBR.asx

@aldueza
i will provide my app after some more testing though i have tested it on several videos and it works fine with all of them.

PS: EdgeStream automatically tests your bandwidth and starts streaming the detected bitrate. my app have no control over bitrate selection. it just saves whatever is being streamed by EdgeStream. so if you have faster connection then higher quality video will be downloaded.

thanks KSV. it leads to:

Code:

C:\rtmpdump-2.3>"EdgeStream Dumper.exe" "esvp://1dfef6f1c68d6599e1f829d1e3afe021f1e7f6c2c52fd7efaf29d2ebaee427e5afe6d4d965dbf1f167cdeaaee036bbb3b482867887afec28cfa8e9f128.wmv" output.wmv

and i get:

output.wmv, 103 MB (108.462.080 Bytes), crc32:76AF8307

The file plays perfectly from beginning to end (22min15sec). Works great your tool!

oki tnx ksv, very genius..!! hope u fix it..!! i'll wait for this program. tnx.. happy easter day!

aldueza · #18 04-25-2011, 04:55 PM

Perfect Job! Good Application!

KSV · #19 04-26-2011, 01:21 AM

This is a command line application and you need to run it from cmd prompt not by double clicking it. you need esvp url which can be obtained from asx file (save asx file and open it with notepad). command syntax is:

Code:

"EdgeStream Dumper.exe" "esvp url" "output filename.wmv"

This app only helps in downloading uncrippled video but it doesn't remove Microsoft DRM. you must have valid license to play or unDRM such DRM'ed videos.

yeah ur right it needs a valid license for other episodes.. i have downloaded the other episode protected drm.. and i'll run with drmdbg.. and he gave me up the kid and sid.. and ive try to run dragging on freeme.. but nothing happens... i think the sid is wrong.. bcoz the video quality is blurred and noisy.!
