Last year, I discovered a small piece of software called the BB2 Reloader. I used it to automatically reload the live feed into Real Player every 25 minutes to avoid timeouts. If you don't have this software, I have posted it to my site TEMPORARILY:

The file is called bb2reloader.exe and all you have to do to configure it is input the direct links to the the various four feeds. However, I've tried using URL snooper to figure out the direct links and still can't figure out the direct links without the "key" which keeps changing. Last year I had the same problem until someone figured out the "keyless" links to the camera feeds.

Does someone know the "keyless" direct camera links to the four feeds?

Are you sure there was a "keyless" URL last year? If there was it was a well keeped secret.

If you do happen to know a keyless URL from last year, let me know. Maybe we can figure out if there is something similar this time around.

I was never able to find one last year though.

These were the "keyless" URL's from last year:

http://pylon.real.com/gp_only/ram.rxml?pid=bb&url=play1_bb.smi%3fmode=compact&promo=default/settings/settings_promo.smi&mode=compact

http://pylon.real.com/gp_only/ram.rxml?pid=bb&url=play2_bb.smi%3fmode=compact&promo=default/settings/settings_promo.smi&mode=compact

http://pylon.real.com/gp_only/ram.rxml?pid=bb&url=play3_bb.smi%3fmode=compact&promo=default/settings/settings_promo.smi&mode=compact

http://pylon.real.com/gp_only/ram.rxml?pid=bb&url=play4_bb.smi%3fmode=compact&promo=default/settings/settings_promo.smi&mode=compact

And they did work last year using the software, which happens to be called the BB2 Reloader. If you download the software, you'll know that it is basically a timer that just reloads those URL's every X number of minutes.

Lawyerman: Did those URL's work all the way to the end of the show? I think they started using the keys part way though.

Yep, I used those links all the way to the end. In fact, the only reason I still had those links available as of this evening was because I never reconfigured the player once the show ended last season.

FYI, for the first week or so, I only knew about the URL's with the keys. Once I found out about BB2 Reloader, I downloaded it and it came preloaded with the keyless URL's. The keyless URL's were also available at other web sites.
