Geeks: What is the easiest way to find a flash file path to leach from a tube?
 

What is the easiest way to find a flash file path to leach from a tube?

isnt that theft? :1orglaugh

theft from thefts? :D

it's easy to get the link but they will be able to block your hotlinking. there's really no point in doing it, unless you're targeting small/amateur tubes ???

I think if you run it through their player it makes it very hard to block, I'm far from a pro at that but think I read similar on this board.

yes, but trough their player it will surely include a link to their site, their ads, etc...

So you're just sending free traffic their way :2 cents:

Good call, can you use their player but chose your own skin?

Hypothetically of course..lol

congrats to teh winners

Packet sniffer that's monitoring for requests to FLV files should do it.

Ya thats what I do

on a sidenote, redtube.com allows hotlinking on videos, well not allowed, but it works, they dont disable it.

I wrote a shell script which takes a redtube id, and gives the direct url.

[chris@jet ~]$ ./redtube.sh 2022

I think Web Activity Monitor has a free trial with a nag screen if you want to try that. You'll be able to see all the requests and details.

it's amazing just how many people have pubic hair left over in their mouth about tubes on here

There is a firefox plugin that will do it for you ;)

firebug ftw

OrbitDownloader can handle everything. Tubes too. In one click :) You'll see path and everything.

Bump........

Packet Sniffer....The tube flash players are getting very tricky, no more passing the Flash file name on the varchar

that wont dent a million dollar biz

ya most are doing it through xml

If any one wants to rip a Tube site let me know :-)

Just parse header information, I do it to Youtube.

lol........

Can you expand on that any?

firefox has some plugin that uses this http://dys.lexal.net/flv/downloader.php

but im no fucking geek

It will be interesting when tubes moved from HTTP to RTMP, but I doubt they will want to spend the money.

Hulu for example makes it so hard to copy but new tools are coming out

there is a firefox plugin that lets you download flv files from players

This thread is ridiculous. :2 cents:

Hey man, I have a lot of different link and traffic trades we could do. Hit me up [email protected]
