Well, I'm trying to get a short movie from a webpage, but they seem to have locked it away behind some fancy flash stuff... Does anyone know how to get it out :?: I need it for school :?

Here's the code, have fun :wink: And thanks :notworthy:

Code: Select all

Oh, in case I made a mistake getting the code out of there: This is the site: clicky, under "Bewijsfilm 7: Jongeren & Werk" (anyone that understands Dutch, it's quite funny, feel free to watch :lol: )

the videos could be anywhere on the net (or even on a private network) - they're being dynamically loaded into the flash object which is acting as an embedded player.

Your only chance would be to find someone who could de-compile the flash object (http://reclamefilms.humo.be/dynamicvideo.swf ) and then read through the resulting code to find out the actual URI that resolves when you feed it a parameter called 'FlashVars' with a value of 'film=7'.




I hear that Markfiend is a dab hand at Macromedia Flash stuff...

Maybe, but I can't decompile it. :urff:

It's not exactly undecompileable (I have invented a new word and I claim my £5) but it's geekery on another level I'm afraid. Flash objects are almost always encrypted to prevent this sort of jiggery-pokery.

Well, thanks again :notworthy:

You don't have to do the effort anymore, the school thingy I needed it for was the other day, so :wink:

But thanks still, I've learned another thing :D :notworthy:

(Oh, and a friend of mine says he has a program to do it, but don't really know what it is I'm affraid, I'll keep you posted if you want)
