hulu sec.swf is not always present #14

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
Hulu plugin DecryptPid.as assumes http://www.hulu.com/sec.swf is always
present. A while back I was able to wget it and now it returns with "404
Not found" error. Thru wireshark, I see that if you go to hulu thru
browser, it's appending cb=<xxxxx> arg at the end of the URL i.e. 
http://www.hulu.com/sec.swf?cb=2009022501, whose wget succeeds for me now.
Dont know how long it will succeed.

I think they are creating some time factor into sec.swf URL and aging out
older ones...just another layer of security I guess. That cb value needs to
be figured out from player.swf.

No matter how many times I try I can't get hulu.com/sec.swf to return 404.

In any case, IMO we need to move away from using gnash & sec.swf if possible.

Here is my wget tries. That cb arg looks like YYYYMMDDSS where SS is some sort 
of
serial number of the day.
