Replay IHeartRadio station URL in Python

I am trying to capture the IHeartRadio URL for a specific site and just replay it.

The replaying part I have down in python that's no issue. the issue is actually capturing this URL!

I tried capturing it in WireShark, its all encrypted so I wasn't able to see any URLs. Mainly just TLS and encryption headers. I tried capturing the request in burpsuite and I captured a few but still wasn't able to replay anything I captured and wasn't sure what the identifier of a station is.

I next tried Fiddler and I captured a handful of requests when turning on a station. Still no luck figuring out what to replay and identifier the station. enter image description here

I read an old post and it said to try this: but this must be an old version of how IHRH use to be. Use a filter and type in tcp contains "ihrh"

  1. Open all packets which include the link. *NOTE: Ignore any text which contains "ihrh" we are looking for a link
  2. Find server link (ex. c13.prod.playlists.ihrhls.com) *NOTE: make sure it is "c" and a number like "c13" NOT "cdn" or anything else
  3. Go in internet explorer and go to stream on iheart radio
  4. Look at url and notice the code (ex. _h_ttps://www.iheart.com/live/channel-933-241/?autoplay=true&pname=fire&campid=local&callletters=khts-fm)
Solution

  • I was able to figure this out. I was able to go to the network tab and in the JSON data I was able to pull out the URL streams that automatically start station when its entered into a browser
