What we need is a method to extract that URL from your own account, like an update to the script in the OP. | ||

I'm under the impression that if you've paid for the premium stream, that's the key that allows you to watch the HD stream live, so if GOM's net watchdogs are monitoring their site, they might discover too many people watching paid streams off the same account and take action to stop it, so posting these URLs is iffy. What we need is a method to extract that URL from your own account, like an update to the script in the OP. They log IPs (as/and the IP is actually in the stream link people have been giving out). I'm sure they can notice quite easily if a stream is being simultaneously accessed from multiple sites at once. | ||

So I guess I'd like a URL handler on Mac same error. tried to install gconf via macports but that died. would the url copy/paste thing only work for those with a paid account? god flash frickin ruins my mac. | ||

I'm on a mac and it works fine for me. What you do is after you find this LiveAddr=http%3a//211.43.144.194%3A8800%2Fview.cgi%3Fhid%3D1%26cid%3D22%26nid%3D800%26uno%3D1947000%26uip%3D124.197.22.13%26title%3DSonyEricssonSTARCRAFTIIOpenSeason2%26key%3D5a8ecae105ace131846a3844e53beb2d&Format=OGM& Take everything after LiveAddr= and before &Format=OGM&. Take this and put it on this website http://www.linkedresources.com/tools/unescaper_v0.2b1.html and click unscape and it will give you http://211.43.144.194:8800/view.cgi?hid=1&cid=22&nid=800&uno=1947000&uip=124.197.22.13&title=SonyEricssonSTARCRAFTIIOpenSeason2&key=5a8ecae105ace131846a3844e53beb2d Copy that and put it into VLC. If that doesn't work I recommend installing GOM Player through 'Crossover' or 'Darwine' Edit Note: I'm not a computer scientist or some sort of computer genius (I am actually a building scientist). I just thought of sharing my process of how I got the link to work on VLC and Mac. So please forgive me if my post is ignorant or irrelevant to the thread | ||
