Specs for CNN News Feed
I cannot program this groovy but I can provide the following specs to access the CNN news feeds which are 640x360 h264/aac.flv files.
Open this feed to get the available videos. "http://rss.cnn.com/rss/edition.rss"
The resulting xml provides a series of <titles> and <links> within <item> tags that may be displayed in the on-line menu.
A sample feed is shown in attachment #1.
Each <link> provides access to an xml containing the abbreviated name of the link for that video and a link to a .jpg image.
The image follows the <img width=.....src=" string and ends with ">
The partial link follows the cnnLoadStoryPlayer(' string and ends with the next ',
The partial link needs http://ht.cdn.turner.com/cnn/big// prepended
and _640x360_dl.flv appended to access the video.
A sample link is shown in attachment #2 and would yield the links
http://i2.cdn.turner.com/cnn/dam/assets ... ry-top.jpg
and
http://ht.cdn.turner.com/cnn/big//world ... 360_dl.flv
