problem with this site svtplay.se

[Paddy2007]

I'm having problems with this site. Some of the videos are detected. Some are not.

As an example this one is not detected.

Is there a bug or am I doing something wrong?

Can't check on those as Swedish Broadcasting is blocking IPs outside Sweden.

Try this link instead.

Its material produced by Swedish TV and according to their license info it should not be restricted to sweden alone.
Same problem here with not recognizing the stream.

This title, on same site, works great

For me it would be great if I could enter the RTMP url directly in the program at times like this when the logic fails to detect a stream. I understand that not all users will be able to look at the source of the page and copy and paste the URL but it would be a great addition nevertheless.

That first is not working either, IP blocked.
Second one works and is detected just fine.

I'm starting to see a pattern here. If the video is blocked from outside Sweden it will not be detected by VSO Downloader.
Even though I am inside Sweden and the video plays fine with the webbrowser and I can download it with the RTMPDmp commandline program.

Any way of fixing this for a developer outside of Swedish IP adress space?

I will be more then happy to assist to run a version with logging enabled.

I suppose SRT uses same type of streaming and detection as YLE in Finland. We have mutual problem.
Sadly to solve it - VSO needs access to those files. I can't set up a proxy in this network, but maybe you can set up one there?
That would allow VSO to try downloading themselves.

There are several swedish VPN providers and I would be willing to give away a 1 month subscription to any of them if I knew that a developer would work on this problem.

A more simple solution is to allow me to input the rtmp:// url directly in the application. That way I am doing the logic to find the stream.
