Downloading/Ripping from Aereo.com

Hi all,

I'm pretty stuck and could use some help. Aereo is a service that lets you watch/record local television networks in your own city. I'm trying to download the recorded files. The flash player points to an f4m file. Here's the contents of an example file:

Code:

<?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?>
<manifest xmlns="http://ns.adobe.com/f4m/2.0">
  <id>multicast.stream.0</id>
  <duration>8926</duration>
  <mimeType>video/mp4</mimeType>
  <streamType>recorded</streamType>
  <deliveryType>streaming</deliveryType>
  <bestEffortFetchInfo fragmentDuration="2.0" maxBackwardFetches="4" maxForwardFetches="1" segmentDuration="86400.0"/>
  <baseURL>https://strm15-nyc1.aereo.com/76771682-5253-4268-8504-84d5d84dcf89</baseURL>

Any ideas? Thanks for the help.
