    Hi,

    I don't know who pointed me to a new url for yle areena (http://areena-beta.yle.fi), but I'd rather wait with that until the "beta" disappears from the url...

    Unless, of course, there is a strong argument to switch to the new url (think newer videos,better quality,...)

    I guess the beta is final now, as yle areena doesn't work right now.
    Before I redo the site, I want to make sure, the videos are playable in mediaportal.

    Since their videos are geoblocked now, I need a volunteer for testing, or anyone willing to setup a finnish VPN for me.

    If there is no other volunteers then I can do some minimal testing, but that will be away from the DirectShow filter development so it would be nice to have someone to volunteer :)

    It seems that they also changed their way of playback.
    At least, they don't use their "special" version of rtmp anymore, but still, it's going to be quite a puzzlechallenge

    I've found an pytho script that can download the videos, and I'm now converting it to c#.

    In the mean time, you could help by finding out if there's an api for getting series/categories/etc. (my finnish isn't good enough to work through all the pages covering that subject)

    Playback of yle areena is working in my test version. Now to see if I can put some structure in the website...
    Hint: an api sure would help :)
