I just finished writing VeohProxy2, a local Web Server that streams High Quality Content from Veoh. It also replaces the NinjaVideo.net helper software with less restrictions than the original program (No referral checking, etc.). So now, any online video website could use this helper (or a derrivate work) to supply viewers with high quality video content hosted on Veoh. To use the script, you need to have python installed. Exectue it using: python default.py (The filename is default.py so that it can easily run on XBMC ) Now you can just go to NinjaVideo.net and watch any video they have or you can search for Veoh videos on their Website. If you click on any of the results, you will get to a URL like: http://www.veoh.com/videos/v280192es88wEr4?searchId=3295803849254710272&rank=1 . Take the cryptic part starting with the letter "v" and append it to the local webserver URL: http://127.0.0.1:64652/v280192es88wEr4 . If you like a download manager, you can use resuming and multipart downloading with it. With this, you should be able to grab the veoh videos with full speed. Download the program here: veohproxy2.zip To clarify things: This program doesn't download the poor quality, time-restricted flash video copy of the video, but the original AVI, MOV, .. file in full quality! The program could be easily ported to other languages or compiled to a windows executable using py2exe (no time to do that myself yet). Any questions? Contact me at

Update: I just wrote a version for XBMC (XBoxMediaCenter) which consumes less memory by using regular expressions instead of xml parsing and doesn't have caching of video metadata and direct pass-through of data chunks. I could play videos through it on the XBox having around 20MB of free memory using lates XBMC SVN. Download this version here: VeohProxy for XBMC UPDATE 2: Pleae get the current version from google code: http://code.google.com/p/veohproxy/ |
