add support for netu.tv

I'm fighting myself with adding netu.tv flash video provider, but not successfully. If you have time, it would be nice to add support.

Had a quick look at the netu.tv site, in a different language and it requires registration, doesn't give a list of videos as such. The idea when reporting an issue is to give, versions, examples, these can be tried and confirm the issue, then look at solving them, could be site might work with latest versions doubt it. There might be other issues some sites are restricted to work only for certain locations. Unclear if registration is required to download or not with no example to try.

I can give you example here:

First trick is iframe containing base64 javascript code which generates another javascript code which finally generates (by using eval) iframe content. That is how far I got.

Flashgot firefox add-on shows that flash player gets multiple segments by separated HTTP requests, but when I downloaded first part, mplayer wasn't able to play it. Maybe there are metadata with codec definition transfered in other way and flash player doesn't get confused.

Quite challenging ;)

Tried that url using get_flash_videos and yes it failed.

This is the start I found...

http://s2.netu.tv/hds-vod/flv/api/files/videos/2013/08/17/1376743621150a7.mp4.f4m followed by the segments. http://s2.netu.tv/hds-vod/flv/api/files/videos/2013/08/17/1376743621150a7.mp4Seg1-Frag1 http://s2.netu.tv/hds-vod/flv/api/files/videos/2013/08/17/1376743621150a7.mp4Seg1-Frag2 ....

See issue 379 about Channel 4, that uses f4m / f4f. While I did something to process f4m for channel 4, it is encrypted. Trying to play segments won't work if encrypted, and may not play even if not encrypted.

One thing that worked for a while was to use 4od for PS3, since removed, that didn't use flash / encryption.
