guessing rtmpe url of MTV.com

guessing rtmpe url of MTV.com

 

Hi there

Does anyone know how the MTV URLs are usually constructed?

I'm trying to guess the url of a show which says it's no longer available, however I suspect/hope that it might be still on their servers since every file related to the video is still there (snapshots, description, etc)

here are unavailable Crystal Castles interviews on MTV Subterranean I'd like to get to see:

looking at another video from the same show to see how the URLs look like:

http://www.mtv.com/videos/misc/39729...ew-album.jhtml

rtmpe://cp10740.edgefcs.net/ondemand/mtvcomstor/_!/mtv.com/onair/subterranean/mt_sub_depeche_mode_rt169271_s2_448x336_650.flv


and another one:

http://www.mtv.com/videos/interview/...gwriting.jhtml

rtmpe://cp10740.edgefcs.net/ondemand/mtvcomstor/_!/mtv2.com/onair/subterranean/young_veins/m2_subterranean_tyv_rt212307_beingasongwriter_384x216_450.mp4


all the other parts I could try and guess but where does the number in bold come from?

any help would be appreciated.

That's a tough one sorry - good luck - hopefully somebody else has some insight into this - but I'm all out of good ideas for this one ;)

Re: guessing rtmpe url of MTV.com

 

Try these: -

rtmpe://cp21595.edgefcs.net/ondemand/mtvcomstor/_!/mtv.com/onair/subterranean/vh_sub_rt212097_s4_768x432_1700.mp4
rtmpe://cp21595.edgefcs.net/ondemand/mtvcomstor/_!/mtv.com/onair/subterranean/vh_sub_rt212097_s3_768x432_1700.mp4
rtmpe://cp21595.edgefcs.net/ondemand/mtvcomstor/_!/mtv.com/onair/subterranean/vh_sub_rt212097_s1_768x432_1700.mp4
rtmpe://cp21595.edgefcs.net/ondemand/mtvcomstor/_!/mtv.com/onair/subterranean/vh_sub_rt212097_s5_768x432_1700.mp4
rtmpe://cp21595.edgefcs.net/ondemand/mtvcomstor/_!/mtv.com/onair/subterranean/vh_sub_rt212097_s2_768x432_1700.mp4

You're good - how did you figure out the missing variables?

Re: guessing rtmpe url of MTV.com

 

:eek: You made my day, thanks a lot synopeas!!!

Would you post a little tutorial about how you got it? ;)


EDIT:

did you manage to download 100% complete?

for me all the parts got cut off at some point..

Re: guessing rtmpe url of MTV.com

 

To ensure you get complete downloads use this as an example: -

rtmpdump -r "rtmpe://cp21595.edgefcs.net/ondemand/mtvcomstor/_!/mtv.com/onair/subterranean/vh_sub_rt212097_s4_768x432_1700.mp4" -W "http://media.mtvnservices.com/player/release/?v=4.11" -o vh_sub_rt212097_s4_768x432_1700.flv -V

To get the download urls, use this as a template: -

_http://intl.esperanto.mtvi.com/www/xml/media/mediaGen.jhtml?uri=mgid%3Auma%3Avideo%3Amtv.co.uk% 3A******

Replace the 6 asterisks at the end with the 6 digits from the web page url and put that in your browser. e.g. -

_http://intl.esperanto.mtvi.com/www/xml/media/mediaGen.jhtml?uri=mgid%3Auma%3Avideo%3Amtv.co.uk% 3A573382

Re: guessing rtmpe url of MTV.com

 

I only downloaded one but it was complete:-

rtmpdump -r "rtmpe://cp21595.edgefcs.net/ondemand/mtvcomstor/_!/mtv.com/onair/subterranean/vh_sub_rt212097_s4_768x432_1700.mp4" -W "http://media.mtvnservices.com/player/release/?v=4.11" -o vh_sub_rt212097_s4_768x432_1700.flv -V

Re: guessing rtmpe url of MTV.com

 

it looks complete enough, but it says try resuming.
do you get the same result?

C:\rtmpdump-2.3>rtmpdump -r "rtmpe://cp21595.edgefcs.net/ondemand/mt
vcomstor/_!/mtv.com/onair/subterranean/vh_sub_rt212097_s4_768x432_1700.mp4" -W "

Re: guessing rtmpe url of MTV.com

 

Yes, that's what I get too.

I think the important bit of the message is this: -
