Magix Club's Forum _ 4Kids Discussion _ Can Not Watch 4 Kids Videos

Posted by: mightymarty2 Jul 16 2007, 4:06 PM

4 kids videos when I go on to the videos on demand section it says 'The video you are trying to watch can not be viewed from your current country or location'. Yet I could before.

Sadly I think 4kids has restricted their liscencing to the US only so we can't watch anything. We have to wait until they air it in our countries (and that's if they actually do)

aww! that is so unfair to you guys! I can still watch them but still, that isn't fair to other countries who want to watch them online and at least if they are watching them on their site they aren't watching it illegally on youtube or something! Are they trying to cut winx club off to the entire world and make it not popular anymore?

It seems like it

So stupid... They don't even show season 3 here becuz it went on summer break

Posted by: mightymarty2 Jul 18 2007, 3:54 PM

Also I do not know when it will come out in England but like season 2 will be in the morning when I can not see it as have to go to school. At least Magix Club has saved me for now

Heck, I just go on veoh to watch episodes, I hate 4kids video thing, they come in 4 parts and it bugs me...

Posted by: mightymarty2 Jul 26 2007, 1:47 PM

I know it annoys me as well

that sucks i live in ireland (beside england) but atleast we have magixclub

Posted by: mimi_x3 Jul 28 2007, 12:48 AM

yeah you guys still have magixclub =] i can still see the videos but thats unfair to onther countries!! =[

Posted by: mightymarty2 Jul 28 2007, 10:30 AM

I will aggree with that. 4kids should get off their high horse and let everyone enjoy the programs they put on why have they stopped people from other countries viewing any way.

Posted by: Boo Jul 28 2007, 4:50 PM

I agree.

Posted by: Abby Jul 29 2007, 7:23 PM

I mean what is everyone supposed to do because they want to see the 4kids english version so if they can't watch it on their site they want to watch it somewhere they can and want people to post them on youtube but they take them down from youtube saying its copyright infringement, so how can you watch winx club?? especially if it isn't in your country.

I completely think 4kids has become quite pathetic.... if you ask me.

Posted by: Dark_Side_Master Apr 8 2009, 1:10 PM

omg, wanted to watch their episode version, and had that stuff. living in russia is so lame... no, wait, 4kids are lame

Bottom one is 4kids. All episodes are dvd rip except a few I think

I have discovered that you can bypass the security (that can't be patched!) to watch 4kidstv.com video's (it works well, and is legal in my eye's)

What you must have is a media player that can stream from rmtp (like winamp) and a proxy (USA proxy off course).

I will use for this howto the video of: This is the beat (because I like the music of it).

1: you go to this page: http://www.4kidstv.com/winx-club/winx-music-video-this-is-the-beat/006, you will hear "this content is currently unavailable" but we are going to bypass this.

2: you open the source code of the HTML code, I use firefox so for me is it: right click > paginabron bekijken (show page source, dutch firefox)

3: you search for something like this
var so = new SWFObject("/swf/4KidsPlayer_portal.swf", "4KidsPlayer", "640", "480", "9.0.0.0", "#000000");


search for the javascript string so.addVariable("releaseURL", escape("http://feeds.theplatform.com/ps/API/PortalService/2.2/getRel etc.

You must copy this url, in my case http://feeds.theplatform.com/ps/API/PortalService/2.2/getReleaseList?PID=I6kXOGi07ZHG7C5xHYVmJd9R_JvN1rBz&field=airdate&field=categoryIDs&field=contentID&field=description&field=ID&field=keywords&field=length&field=rating&field=requestCount&field=thumbnailUrl&field=title&field=URL&contentCustomField=AssetCode&contentCustomField=EpisodeOrClipNumber&contentCustomField=licensor&contentCustomField=seasonNumber&contentCustomField=VideoType&approved=true&query=IDs|861037313 but this change every time (I believe)

4: You must now browse to this url in your browser and you wil see a XML page.
Search for the phrase
-<url>
http://release.theplatform.com/content.select?pid=2XTeF6LIvxyNyZynDMAPQUc0vZ9j8_nR&UserName=Unknown&Embedded=True&Portal=Default%20Feed&Tracking=True
</url> (url can be different)

When you browse now in your browser to this page you wil see a XML page like this:
<playlist>
<title>Unavailable</title>
<choice>
<url>
http://ne.edgecastcdn.net/0008B0/mps/thePlatform/Unavailable.flv
</url>
<title>Unavailable</title>
<description>
You are not in a geographic region that has access to this content.
</description>
</choice>
</playlist>

when you open http://ne.edgecastcdn.net/0008B0/mps/thePlatform/Unavailable.flv in winamp (or an another flv supported media player) you will hear: This content is currently unavailable!

Now we are going to bypass it and to fetch the real url.

5: pick a proxy on www.proxy.org and select an USA server

enter then the release url and you wil get a much larger page, if it doesn't work pick an another proxy.

Now you must find an URL with the rmtp protecol like: rtmp://streams.4kids.tv/4kids/flash/releases/<break>WinxMV_ThisIsTheBeat_kde.flv

6: Make the previous url working

You must strip the url from the <break> text like: rtmp://streams.4kids.tv/4kids/flash/releases/WinxMV_ThisIsTheBeat_kde.flv

7: open it in your media player and enjoy the 4kidstv.com video WITHOUT ADS!!

What do you mean? Its available for me. Or is it just other countries that have blocked it

Posted by: Zydron Aug 16 2009, 1:57 AM

Yes thats the page

I have included it in a proxy for you: unblockyoutube.com/index.php?q=aHR0cDovL3JlbGVhc2UudGhlcGxhdGZvcm0uY29tL2NvbnRlbnQuc2VsZWN0P3BpZD0yWFRlRjZMSX
Z4eU55WnluRE1BUFFVYzB2WjlqOF9uUiZVc2VyTmFtZT1Vbmtub3duJkVtYmVkZGVkPVRydWUmUG9ydGF
sPURlZmF1bHQlMjBGZWVkJlRyYWNraW5nPVRydWU%3D&hl=3cc

Posted by: Zydron Aug 16 2009, 2:00 AM

Well, only US proxies work (and some us proxies doesn't work either) so you must sometimes try some before you can fetch the content.

But unblockyoutube.com works here, by you too?

Posted by: Zydron Aug 16 2009, 2:08 AM

What I tried to say, does it work when you put the release url in that text field on unblockyoutube.com.

But it is always funny to see 4Kids as an alternative, so you can see how 4Kids screw things up!

I have done that with Tokyo Mew Mew (Mew Mew Power for 4Kids fans)
And I laugh out laud, they change names (Zoey Hanson and not Ichigo Momomiya), cut scenes (Like the scene where Ichigo is infused with the genes of the iriomote blackcat, cause she whas naked (Not hentai naked) I guess)
