Parent article: Gnash 0.8.8 Released
There's a news site from which I'd like to download the news each day. If I can play the news in my browser through Gnash, does anyone know a way to see what URLs are being requested by Gnash? Or by any other Flash player?

I would just use iftop. Although it does look like gnash has a debug log, most likely the URLs will show up in the debug log. See the manual for the debuglog option.

Yeah, hurray for iftop. It's not known nearly well enough.

how to you get iftop to give you the URL? The hostname OK, but the URL ?
I use packet filtering (e.g. wireshark or similar) to identify hidden URLs.

I just install dsniff and use urlsnarf, it gives you URL's

Thanks for all the replies. I haven't gotten to try them yet but I've noted them on my useful commands page and will add more info there when I get time.

As long as they're not using RTMP to stream (i.e. just plain HTTP), then simply using Firefox's Firebug Net section will list all the URLs fetched, including the .flv that Flash plays. Opera's Dragonfly, and WebKit's equivalent functionality should also work.

also Wireshark can help you see where your flash player is connecting to to fetch the file/stream.
