I have tried several times using the different methods listed on various pages but they never seem to work.

Hey. I have all the 5 bbc channels on my xml list.
"How do you get the feed information".
It depends on what type of stream, website setup and how protected the streams are. If they don't protect the links at all, you'll find them easily by opening the website in an editor. On chrome and firefox you can press CTRL+U.
If it's a flash stream, I start by searching (CTRL+F) for rtmp. If that doesn't give me any hits, I decrypt the page.
It's usually pretty easy, like mms:// or something like that.-
The website that streams the bbc and itv channels actually do a pretty decent job protecting their links. But then again, they take money for their streams.
They use a script that will redirect the original stream link to another mms server, which uses a timeout system so that the links will only work ones.
That one took me quite some time to crack, and that's why BBC 4 came almost a week after the other 5 bbc channels (1, 2, 3 cbbc, hd).
But sometimes, these are really things you have to figure out on your own.
Sometimes it's easy to get the links, and sometimes it's a challenge. And especially if you can't find them online by googeling.
But do not google stupid tags such as "streaming tv TLC" or something like that. You'll find a lot of spam and dead links.
First you need to have someone an idea of who streams the channel and what method they use to stream that channel.
Then you can start googleing in hopes that someone have already posted the link somewhere.

But that's pretty much the process. At least the part I can tell you.
The best thing you can do is learn some web languages such as html (obviously), php, css and asp and also how web encryption works.

Learn how it works and how it's done. That's the best advice I can give you.

I just go to different websites using the program Wireshark.

Wireshark might be the most complicated program to rip the media URLs out, but since it just dumps whatever it finds on your Internet interface, it's hard for it to fail unless the connection is encrypted, unlike other programs I have tried. Wireshark can even filter out unwanted traffic, so it only shows what you want shown, like "msmms (mms), rtsp, rtmpt (rtmp), and http" (Some names are different as some protocols share same name so Wireshark had to make different names for the filters.)

I've tried other programs like URL Snooper, URL Helper, etc, and they just seem to miss things.

Also if you ever use Linux (technically can be done on Windows but not fun) you can use rtmpsrv and rtmpsuck, that's usually my last resort, when for some reason I'm having a tough time looking in Wireshark for rtmp.

Figures.... That seems to be the major flaw in these LiveStreams, they just come and go at any moment, kinda like a roller coaster ride, LoL.
