Thanks Alot Bro :D

One thing Which I have in my mind is can youtube track it and if we use private vpns with thousands of ip, is it safe ?
 
I remember running a few links through WireShark on 25th of May (I just checked the file) and those links had "et" and "st", so not sure why you're referring to the date 03.06.2012 if they were added before then, unless you mean they only started logging the audience retention on that date?

Mobile views, done the way I showed, never had audience retention logging. I believe iPhone version of the site did, and not Android... not too sure, but that doesn't matter now really.
 
Sorry, I'm so confused now... Do you mind send me a "work" one? I'm actually a constant Youtuber who upload every week and have 20 sub per day without using anything... But I believe I can do better if I have a chance to expose to public more... Would you mind give a help?
 
WOW! Thanks IzSpk!! I fee like I just learn a lot from this post... even though I'm still confused some part of it XD
Do you mind tell me if Magic View still works? And how exactly can I do to apply this "mobile method" to my Youtube video? Sorry I'm kind of new in here... Thanks for your respond!
 
Are you using Magic View? or what other kind? Thanks! :)
 
this was a really interesting thread early on until it got swamped with magicviews posts. :(

how has everyone got on with izspk's OP? Get it working? Personally i failed at generating the plid - seems i suck writing a routine to make a valid base36 plid lol which is so annoying as the rest of it with httprequests is not a problem.

Also with this method could a bot actually ever be made just by putting in a video link, you need the exact len parameter which you'd need to get from watching the requests as they are sent during a normal play through - or am i wrong on that?
 
This will give you a valid plid:
PHP:
<?php  

$plid = $_GET['session'];    
echo base_convert($plid,10,36);
        
srand ((double) microtime( )*1000000);
$random_number = rand(5002610349452,7954295789457);
echo base_convert($random_number,10,36);
        exit();

?>

Upload the code to one of your sites and put the current GMT/UTC unix time in milliseconds in the url like this: yoursite . xxx/?session=unixtimegoeshere

It would be easier and faster to code the function in your bot, but this can be used too.

Do you send referrer, cookies etc. in your http request?

thanks for the php i'll give it a try later. not done anything with the cookie though didnt think it was important. for the referrer(header not referrer=) im using m.youtube.com
 
In what language did you code your bot?

started it in visual c# but converted it to vb.net now as i prefer the editor as it auto indents better and i make very messy code.

done a run through now with 1000 views. bit slow calling my server for the plid each time but i guess i could run wamp and host the php locally. but can come back to that if it works, wasted too much time on that function originally

got to wait now see if they show... fingers crossed :)
 
Just to let you know, I'm a great beta tester ;)

can you tell me should i use spk bot default parameters of like that one -U t -D 1 any one can tell me which one should use.

lol only signed up to get freeviews contribute here before you start with these silly post
 
Well, No views showed for me. Im sending the correct (as far as i can tell) http get's, about 8 in total to simulate a view through to the end.

Comparing the output of mine vs youtube using fiddler and it looks like it should work if its simply a case of sending s.youtube and m.youtube requests but i cant help but feel somthing is missing.

tried calculating the rt param on the fly (currenttime-starttime as posted by spk) but that would be wrong timings anyway if all the requests are sent quickly which is needed if you want to send many views.
tried using the same rt params by copying them from fiddler so they look more valid

so i'll ask again has anyone actually got this working from the info just in this thread or is there something missing?

also how about the fexp parameter any ideas what that is?

ive ignored the cookie up until now. do views count if cookies are disabled?

and why is spk banned all the time lol never seen someone get banned so often and no one ever seems to know the reason why.
