Re: Downloading from Yahoo TV


I was able to download it at last!

I searched for m3u8 on the source code as was advised on another post but I noticed that there were RTMPS urls JUST for this video, right in the source code.

Wireshark never works for the rtmp protocol - for me at least. I always get "unknown" so I was just going to give it ago with a very basic rtmpdump command line using the information that was provided right there in the source code of the page and to my surprise it worked!

This is the command line I used (both parameters were obtained just by looking at the source code - it's a json - and i got the ones that belonged to a HD download):

Code:
rtmpdump -r "rtmps://ci-3c363c9a7c-bec1b2f7.rtmp.atlas.cdn.yimg.com" -y "/primetimetv/lotus/828f0ebf-cd2b-429c-a0a6-4e56bef26f16_GG60mBpzBMMnSBA0rmqAEFwir8CiC82IrMTEXS6Ff7C65_I78HR78FAqfpGjnb_eNswUyH2niVI-_11_0?a=primetimetv&b=41920&m=video%2fmp4&x=1419034687&" -o "output.mp4"
I'm still surprised

But anyway, if you know how to get the m3u8 for that video that would be lovely. It always helps to have more than one method just in case the other doesn't work.
