Is there a blog that explains how this works? I'm assuming they either have a ton of video that is instantly available and use the closest match or some magical CG...
As pure speculation, I'd expect they recorded each channel singing the full song and then switch stream and sync the times when you change channel. It would be really interesting to see how they dealt with the buffering on slower connections, since presumably the video can't prefetch too much ahead as the channel is likely to change regularly.
I was beyond skeptical when I saw this link earlier, but this is outstanding. The commenters on RollingStone and other sites, seem to have wanted some magical rose-colored nostalgia trip to 1965, but the whole point of contemporary Dylan is that you can't have 1965 back (and even if you could, you don't want to). The lyrics to this song are like the anthem of Holden Caufield... a wry, disillusioned, antisocial, antic…
"The lyrics to this song are like the anthem of Holden Caufield... a wry, disillusioned, antisocial, anticonsumption, post-war love song. Anyone who ever thought otherwise, is a turd who only loved this song because it was Top 40 and reminiscent of some lost High School dance, despite the fact that the song itself is completely anti-pop." I sorta hate to break it to you but we knew all that back then. I don't think a…
It looks like there are many 1-second long .flv (Flash Video) files for each channel. This is second 37 on channel 3: http://content.interlude.fm/video/dylanLive/rc2/ch3/c3s37.fl... Here's second 125 on channel 6: http://content.interlude.fm/video/dylanLive/rc2/ch6/c6s125.f... and so forth. You can run this in your terminal to download all of the files for a given channel: curl -O http://content.interlude.fm/video/dy…

Running flash is a terrible security risk. I won't do it even for Dylan. Bummer. Someone should've told his dev team that the times, they are a-changin'...
How do you watch youtube videos without flash?
You'll need Python to run it.
Or just write a script yourself in your language of choice.
I wrote one using only shell, sed and ftp.
1. Download the video with your script of choice.
2. Watch it with your video player of choice.
