Hey everyone, I'm running
get-flash-videos with
rtmpdump (Linux 32bit Ubuntu) for Hulu specifically. I have the Hulu plugin and everything is updated. When I try to download by either URL or the plugin search feature, I am told "Couldn't find Hulu CID". If I edit the plugin file directly and manually set the CID variable, the downloads work fine. I'm afraid I don't know Perl well enough to know why the CID assignment is failing. Hunting down the individual CIDs and updating the file every time is really time consuming, if not impossible for certain videos. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Code:
$ get_flash_videos -d http://www.hulu.com/watch/147972/saturday-night-live-census
1 plugin installed:
- Hulu.pm

Couldn't extract Flash movie URL. This site may need specific support adding,
or fixing.
Please confirm the site is using Flash video and if you have Flash available
check that the URL really works(!).
Check for updates by running: /usr/bin/get_flash_videos --update
If the latest version does not support this please open a bug (or
contribute a patch!) at http://code.google.com/p/get-flash-videos/
make sure you include the output with --debug enabled.
