Re: TVPlayer / TvCatchup


The cookies are specific to the session/IP address. You have the detect the cookies yourself using a cookie manager extension (several are available for chrome and Firefox). The cookies that were used above in the example were specific to that particular user.

I used Awesome Cookie Manager for Chrome and searched for the three cookies mentioned above and included that in the HTTP header as biezom pointed out and the CNN stream on their site is working through livestreamer.

As an aside, I will have to criticize the quality of that stream though, I'm not sure why they went with a 576p 2.5 mbit stream, ends up looking really blurry despite using a fair bit of bandwidth. Not sure if it's their source or what it is.
