CBS.com was working until 1 August


Previously, the method outlined in this video worked fine for recording archived broadcasts from CBS.com.

I would go to a show such as:
Code:
http://www.cbs.com/shows/the_young_and_the_restless/video/F0wHaVFFkCYXvWvogMmh7dmtMMljWUH3/the-young-and-the-restless-8-5-2014/
View source and copy the Flash player section
Code:
http://canstatic.cbs.com/chrome/canplayer.swf?pid=XticgyThEaJL&partner=cbs_facebook&gen=1&autoPlayVid=true
Open this link in a new tab and RTMPDumpHelper would save the video.

Starting around 1 August, the video never plays in the new tab I've opened. Not in IE, Chrome, nor FF.
The video will play in the cbs.com window, but RTMPDumpHelper never detects the video.

RTMPDump helper still does work on websites such as PBS.com without having to open the Flash player in a separate tab, so I'm left wondering if something at CBS.com has changed and if there's a new way to cache the videos.
