Is there any other software that has the source that can stream them like get_iplayer for example? If so, worth a check. Also worth snooping traffic when playing them in the browser, so see what is sent/received to make sure nothing has been missed.
wireshark hadn't really turned up very much, but I just gave URL Snooper a go and after checking all of the urls from the 4oD server this caught my eye:
http://www.channel4.com/static/global/js...macsha1.js
It looks like it's creating the auth key, hopefully from the token in the xml. I'm pretty new to javascript but hopefully the answer is in there somewhere. I'm too tired now - didn't get to sleep last night. Hopefully tomorrow will bring results. Thanks for the pointers!
Oh and it looks like the current get_iplayer only works with the BBC and no other sources.
