Re: www.channel4.com: Using Rtmpdump for downloading 4OD videos


Hi nonna,

to retrieve XML data for this program:

_http://www.channel4.com/programmes/time-team/4od#2928286

use the following:

_http://www.channel4.com/programmes/time-team/4od/asset/2928286?1598247633

The '-C Z:' parameter in my rtmpdump command was as a result of using rtmpsrv.

I was able to successfully download a programme using the parameters provided by rtmpsrv, but was unable to generate parameters automatically from the xml file. I was unable to generate the '&h' parameter. As elch & non77 indicated, the &h is a hash of some form, but I think it is generated dynamically by the 4od player .swf file. I could not find it anywhere in any of the network activity. I'd be very interested if you are able to do this....
