I have a trial for another month for Bell Fibe's Video-on-demand service and their Kids Suite VOD channel. The Kids Suite has all the episodes of this show I watched as a kid called The Edison Twins. I would like to grab these before by trial with the channel runs out.
I don't have any video capture cards or anything of the sort, but I can access my TV service through a web browser, including the VOD channels. The videos run through Silverlight. Looking at hte source code for the page playing an episode, I found the URL for the video and downloaded a 225MB wmv file. However, I cannot play it no matter what i use. Windows Media Player says one or more codecs are missing. VLC gives me:
Quote:
Codec not supported:
VLC could not decode the format "PRDY" (No description for this codec)
Unidentified codec:
VLC could not identify the audio or video codec

I assume this is something caused by DRM. Is there a way to full the DRM off of these videos? I have looked through some other threads, but they pointed to programs that had broken download links.
