Need help recording .f4m bbc stream

Need help recording .f4m bbc stream

Hello people,

I'm trying to record this bbc stream here (http://www.bbc.co.uk/events/errnc8/live/c9rxn3) using AdobeHDS downloader, but it doesn't seem to work.

The firefox hds link detector addon gives me this command.

HTML Code:

php AdobeHDS.php --manifest "http://www.bbc.co.uk/mediaselector/playlists/hds/pc/ak/uk_sport_stream_14.f4m" --delete

But I keep getting this error: "Unable to download the manifest"

Could anyone please tell me what I'm doing wrong?

Thanks in advance! :)

Thanks for replying!

But now it says "Access Denied! Unable to download the manifest."

Nope, but the stream is working fine with my non-uk ip though.

Re: Need help recording .f4m bbc stream

Also tried a proxy with this command

HTML Code:

php AdobeHDS.php --proxy 82.145.57.10:3128 --quality high --manifest "http://zaphod-live.bbc.co.uk.edgesuite.net/hds-live/livepkgr/_definst_/uk_sport_stream_14/uk_sport_stream_14_80.f4m" --delete

Now it tells me this:

HTML Code:

Processing manifest info......

Quality Selection:

Available: 1

Selected: 1

Fragments total: 933783, First: 926622, Start: 933782, Parallel: 8

Sounds like it's encrypted

Re: Need help recording .f4m bbc stream

Here is the manifest files

Code:

<manifest xmlns="http://ns.adobe.com/f4m/2.0">

  <dvrInfo windowDuration="-1"/>

  <media href="http://bbcfmhds.vo.llnwd.net/hds-live/livepkgr/_definst_/uk_sport_stream_14/uk_sport_stream_14_40.f4m" bitrate="512"/>

  <media href="http://bbcfmhds.vo.llnwd.net/hds-live/livepkgr/_definst_/uk_sport_stream_14/uk_sport_stream_14_50.f4m" bitrate="796"/>

Re: Need help recording .f4m bbc stream

So does that mean there's absolutely no way to record this stream?

The hds fragments here don't have encryption. Requesting the hds manifest requires a cookie.

Instead of hds, this live streaming content can also be downloaded by http.

Load the mediaselector page (may be geo-restricted);

Code:

http://open.live.bbc.co.uk/mediaselector/5/select/version/2.0/mediaset/journalism-pc/vpid/p021gqsy

From mediaselector page, choose "href=" url that ends with "__gda__=" (followed by some single-use code), like this expired example;

Code:

h..p://bbcsportuk-f.akamaihd.net/sport_stream_14_80@s35975?__gda__= (some code here)

Download directly from this url.

Thanks for helping, but I can't seem to figure out what you mean with this?

When I open that url I just get this:

HTML Code:

This XML file does not appear to have any style information associated with it. The document tree is shown below.

<mediaSelection xmlns="http://bbc.co.uk/2008/mp/mediaselection">

<error id="selectionunavailable"/>

</mediaSelection>

How do you get to see the "href=" thing?
Are you sure you posted the right url?

That is because that show (from Friday) is over now.
