Thanks for all that detail, ehurdler. I went over it carefully to see if there was anything you were doing that was fundamentally different than what I'm doing. The biggest difference may be that I'm getting the manifest file from KSV's HDS Link Detector Add-on or filtering the Web Console feedback for .f4m or Seg (when specific frag numbered files are of interest to me) files.

In your experience, just how quickly do these authentication tokens typically expire? I run everything from batch files, but usually never have a delay of more than about 30 seconds from the time I paste the text string in to the time I run it.

I don't have time at the moment, but tonight I'll take another stab at one of the videos I've had trouble with (they're all event replays, of which I'm having about a 60-70% success rate with).
