@ALL If we could keep the non development talk to a minimum I would appreciate. (I'm guilty of getting sidetracked as well)
If you guys feel like you have something to discuss that doesn't directly involve the development of this plugin, by all means start a new thread. But this is not the place to do it.
However, using a something other than a browser to get the page's html (I used python) showed that the html itself was encrypted. If this has changed and they're now encrypting the SMIL, I apologize, and should have followed my own advice about trying it out myself before posting.

Quote:I've observed firsthand (with my own Hulu downloader script and via network traces) that the SMIL text is now being encrypted. I saw another post that said the decryption was done in JavaScript and had no reason to disbelieve it. If you have some knowledge as to how the new security measures work, maybe you'd care to enlighten us?Shortly after engadget reported Hulu was doing this, I used firebug to get the smil's url and it was not encrypted.
