www.abc.net.au: Downloading streaming TV Shows from ABC iView (rtmp:// .flv)Downloading streaming TV Shows from ABC iView
by Andy Botting (andybotting.com) I’ve done a little bit of work since my last post on this, and a couple of people have asked for my stuff. Here goes. Firstly, you can use rtmpdump to download the iView stream. You’ll need to download rtmpdump 1.4 and compile it yourself. It should just take a ‘make’ as long as you have all the requirements. When iView starts, it first requests an XML config file, from the URL http://www.abc.net.au/iview/iview_config.xml Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <config> <param name="authenticate_path" value="http://202.125.43.119/iview.asmx/isp" /> <param name="media_path" value="flash/playback/_definst_/" /> <param name="media_path_mp4" value="flash:mp4/playback/_definst_/" /> <param name="server_streaming" value="rtmp://cp53909.edgefcs.net/ondemand" /> <param name="server_speedtest" value="rtmp://cp44823.edgefcs.net/ondemand" /> <param name="xml_help" value="iview_help.xml" /> <param name="xml_channels" value="iview_channels.xml" /> <param name="xml_series" value="http://www.abc.net.au/playback/xml/rmp_series_list.xml" /> <param name="xml_thumbnails" value="http://www.abc.net.au/playback/xml/thumbnails.xml" /> <param name="xml_classifications" value="http://www.abc.net.au/playback/xml/classifications.xml" /> <param name="xml_feature" value="http://www.abc.net.au/playback/xml/iview_feature.xml" /> <param name="xml_feature_home" value="http://www.abc.net.au/playback/xml/iview_homepage.xml" /> <param name="server_time" value="http://www.abc.net.au/iview/time.htm" /> <param name="thumbs_path" value="http://www.abc.net.au/playback/thumbs/" /> <param name="base_url" value="http://www.abc.net.au/iview" /> <param name="channel_id_arts" value="2260366" /> <param name="channel_id_news" value="2186765" /> <param name="channel_id_docs" value="2176127" /> <param name="channel_id_shop" value="2186639" /> <param name="channel_id_catchup" value="2172737" /> <param name="channel_id_kazam" value="2288241" /> <param name="channel_id_faves" value="2478452" /> <param name="channels_main" value="catchup,news,docs,arts,shop" /> <param name="channels_kids" value="kazam,faves" /> </config> Code:

Also important to note that the programs have an expiry date also. If the command above returns a ’stream not found’ message, you’ll probably need a newer episode. |
