I looked through the source of player.swf and sure enough, it's loading dec.swf now, not sec.swf. My guess, based on nothing more than rash assumptions, is that Hulu is now obfuscating dec.swf such that it can't be accurately decompiled anymore.

Try hsc.swf. They changed it a few days ago, but it will not decompile. AFAIK everything you need is in player.swf.

The problem here is, every time we discuss this in public, Hulu will change things again. If you want to actually be able to fix it once and then sit back and use it, you either have to clearly demonstrate to Hulu the futility of their obfuscation efforts, or just sit back quietly and stop discussing it in public, so they no longer get a clear view of how easily their stuff gets broken and how often they need to change it.
I suppose, in the long run, it's better to keep discussing it in the open so that they can see the futility of paying expensive programmers to continue to obfuscate their offerings, when any number of random hackers will rip it to shreds for free.

Hi all.
Any progress on decrypting the SMIL file?
I've updated the hulu-get perl scripts so that they can retrieve all three params needed for the SMIL url (decrypted pid, auth token, and the (constant?) "v" value).

Is the Hulu plugin (browser) boxee uses open-source? Can it be ported back to xbmc?

For anyone curious, it looks like Hulu changed things again a few days ago; they used to only be using RTMPE on their H.264 streams but now they're using it on all of their streams. And they've changed the RTMPE protocol; the server is sending a packet that rtmpdump-1.6 doesn't recognize. Back to decoding packet dumps I guess.
edit: simple fix, rtmpdump was only decoding 1 out of up to 3 bytes of a packet's channel ID...

No, please don't. We can't allow any discussion of reversing RTMPE here i'm afraid.
