Going to bump this as its a great streaming site that doesn't (atm) geo block.

Talking to mikey1234 that made contributed with some nice graphics I promised to move this post the right place. And I hope someone takes it up but this project might be hard as I understand they use some dynamic link system. But what do I know. Heh..

Wireshark reveals quite a bit for you

Here's a good post describing it - http://stream-recorder.com/forum/rtmpdu ... t9514.html

There's also a javascript chunk in each page, but the rtmp address is pointing to 127.0.0.1

Code: Select all

<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">
// <![CDATA[
   
    //var flash_config = {"streamer":"\/tv\/modules\/FilmOnTV\/files\/flashapp\/filmon\/FilmonPlayer.swf?v=6","type":"filmonPlayer","playVast":false,"vastApiUrl":false,"yume_enabled":false};
   
    default_channel = $('#689');
   
    var enable_intro    =  !!'';
    var intro_video_url = 'http://cloud.filmon.com/channels/intro/feb8-2012.commercial.low.flv';
    var vast_enabled = !!'1';
   
    var user = {};
        user.isLogged = function(){
            return !!'';
        }
       
    var chat_toggle_on_channel_change = !!'';
    var chat_enabled = 1;
    var temporary_chat_disable = false;

    expand_groups = false;
    current_channel_id= last_clicked_channel_id = '689';
    current_quality = 'high';

    expire_time = '86500' * 1;
    subscriptions = [];

    def_server_url       = "rtmp%3A%2F%2F127.0.0.1%2Flive689%3Fid%3D0ad5aac39bb13fbe292adf9047f000d0dd278060b1a1bf43255c837afd1fcf3842a9b923dce1030f89e5681c4b9d41ab8b2fff274bdf3dbf3b4d24c07defa9a516a84e299fdd9e76aa872b9862ef10baef20d194a1e76a156c9d1141b1b2757ab00bd9daa3d79ae984a53f1c6211cc197562b6e70d3da1ac558caeb22cd117cb";
    def_stream_name = "689.high.stream";

    var streamer_url = flash_config.streamer;
    expressinstall_url     = "http://www.filmon.com/tv/modules/FilmOnTV/flash/expressInstall.swf";

thanks eldorado for looking

the thing is it is subscription based but its free subscription as iPhone/iPad app anywhere in the world and you can just mirror to atv2 which isnt a problem really


i do think you have to pay subscription to watch online which is strange

I've noticed a lot of people are snagging their streams for LiveStreams xml's.. so not sure if a full blown addon is useful

Though if someone can figure out how to get the rtmp server address, creating one should be rather simple after that

[mikey1234]

Why it's useful is because it's not geo blocked

I posted this link elsewhere but does this help from a working livestream filmon channel:-


<link>rtmp://live127.origin.la3.filmon.com:1935/live/_definst_/ playpath=497.high.stream live=true/Comedy Net</link>

[Eldorado]

But need to find a way of getting that address from their site via an addon script

Easy to pull it out using wireshark or any other network sniffers

filmon just made a lot of channels free so it would be really nice to have it on apple tv.
