I haven't seen this posted anywhere here and, while most people have access to a Windows computer and the GOM player, for the few of us who are Mac and Linux users it's nice to have an alternative. The live streams are all viewable in VLC and all one needs to do is to get the URL - here's how.
1) Find the live game - the low quality and high quality stream links are shown here :
2) The links send a list of parameters to a javascript that builds the URL to a page which will launch the stream in the GOM player. For the high quality stream, for example, the command is this (mouseover the link to get it):
javascript:showMovie('live',1,'10077','1','','','http://explive.gomtv.com/view.gom?liveid=10077')
The link calls the javascript function showMovie, which is found in the js file here :
http://img.gomtv.com/js/play.js
and looks like this :
var baseUrl = "http://tv.gomtv.com/cgi-bin/launcher/";
function showMovie(type, param1, param2, param3, param4, param5, param6)
{
var launcher = baseUrl + "launcher_"+type+".cgi";
var param = "";
param += playParam[type][0] + "=" + param1 + "&";
param += playParam[type][1] + "=" + param2 + "&";
param += playParam[type][2] + "=" + param3 + "&";
param += playParam[type][3] + "=" + param4 + "&";
param += playParam[type][4] + "=" + param5 + "&";
param += playParam[type][5] + "=" + escape(param6);
launcher += "?" + param;
playing(launcher);
}
So, to get the live page, we simply take the base URL
http://tv.gomtv.com/cgi-bin/launcher/
and start adding the parameters :
showMovie('live',1,'10077','1','','','http://explive.gomtv.com/view.gom?liveid=10077')
The first parameter is "live", and from the play.js the format is given as :
playParam['live'] = new Array("isweb", "liveid", "chnum", "", "", "navurl", "isnav");
so we start adding the next parameters from this list like this :
http://tv.gomtv.com/cgi-bin/launcher/launcher_live.cgi?
http://tv.gomtv.com/cgi-bin/launcher/launcher_live.cgi?isweb=1
... etc
http://tv.gomtv.com/cgi-bin/launcher/launcher_live.cgi?isweb=1&liveid=10077&chnum=1&navurl=http://explive.gomtv.com/view.gom?liveid=10077
^ and that's it. Load this url now and you get a blank page. Do a view source on this page and search for an http:// link that starts like this :
http://218.232.76.233:8159/view.cgi?systype=500&subtype=30&hid=50&cid=10077&nid=59&ptic=8bac..... etc
and copy it into VLC - PRESTO! Live MSL in VLC 
|
I'm getting:
http://121.125.69.106:8159/view.cgi?systype=500&subtype=30&h ... etc
Super super long with even Korean in the url.
Then when I load it I get a very brief commercial followed by these errors:
Unable to open 'MSL'
Unable to open '32강'
Unable to open 'E조]'
Unable to open '이윤열,이영호P,이병민,서경종'
Unable to open '5/3(토)'
Unable to open '19:30&impurl=http://ana.gomtv.com/cgi-bin/launch_play.cgi?param= etc
[edit]
Ok, now I see the url with the same ip number as you had and when I tried to load same problem. Except this time I did see MSL intro. So it does have the correct url.
|
Maybe try it with the trailing \ in the URL removed? I think it should finish with "...196.241"
|
Makes no difference for me. The first time I try it shows very short, then error. The second time it no longer works. Then I refresh and get a new url. I assume it's a slightly different ones. There are several different IPs as well.
|
So did you get it working then? Could also be router settings - you may have to make sure that port 8159 is open on your router, I think.
|
Only for half a second. Then that URL no longer works and I have to get a new one.
I could forward the port but it seems to me that can't be it.

Hrm, I dunno, then. I'm using the newest VLC (0.8.6e) on OS X 10.4.11 and am copying URLs from Firefox - maybe it's something like a difference between versions or platforms on how VLC interprets something? Seems strange that the stream will start for a bit and then cut out, mind you. It seems like you are at least connecting to the live stream. Maybe try the low quality version? All you have to change is make chnum=0 instead of chnum=1 in the first URL - it could just be that you can't buffer fast enough and the stream is just cutting out. I often have to watch in low quality or I get nothing.

Let's see how many people can get that highway webcam working then since MSL is over. It's low quality only, so that's not it.

Hmm, I tried the MSL Stream in VLC, doesn't work for me. The TG Classic stream does however. But if it really works I'll hack up a script that let's you start the MSL Stream in VLC too.
What is the URL to that page you made the screenshot from?
|
I lost the URL to the page where I took the screenshot, but it doesn't seem to be around anymore - they only go up when live streams come on and the URL is different each time. I just go to www.gomtv.com/game and usually anything live is featured on the front page.
At any rate, BlackStar, mate, I have no idea why things aren't working for you. All I can say is that it's the procedure I use and it has always worked for me. Maybe someone even geekier than I has some ideas?

MSL is over.
Not live stuff uses different variables/functions/whatever. I don't know javascript.
Try with the highway webcam I posted.
|
The highway cam plays fine for me, no problems.
|
I tried it again with with an updated VCL player. It works now.
Thanks.

Huzzah! Good to hear it ^^

^ Brilliant stuff! I didn't even know about your sidebar so that's doubleplus good. I considered doing something with greasemonkey for this but honestly couldn't be bothered - here's to the great collaborative strength of the internet. Nice work, man.
