greetings, fellow internet!
YouTube - Mobile Views back in ACTION! + SEO Enabled + ANY Referrer
http://www.blackhatworld.com/blackha...k-twitter.html
code it up guys... and rape !
kinda wanna hop on this but it's gonna get raped and patched so quickly.
thread is down
“Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime”
I just want to clear up, the method explained is way more valuable (to some) than the actual bot. Although I will show snippets how to do the different things, this thread is more based on the method itself, how it is done, and so on.
There is no functional bot in this thread, but I’d appreciate if someone took the time to release one (I have too much work to do, and I really don’t have the time to code anything else at the moment)
Part 1 – The ‘mobile method’
So I’ve been looking around, and there is constantly new view providers popping up, and most of them are doing mobile views. But wait SpK, the views show up as Facebook.com and Twitter.com referrals, how come? Well, I will be explaining how these guys do that. The views are just as worthless. Let’s start, shall we?
This has to be the easiest method out there, and I am kind of surprised not too many know about this. Anyways, this is how to do it:
First of all, we need to turn into an iPhone or Android. How do we do this? We can use Chrome, and an extension called “Chrome UA Spoofer”. After we’ve done this, we grab Fiddler2 (http://www.fiddler2.com/fiddler2/). Turn on Fiddler2, and navigate to YouTube (with iPhone 4 user-agent turned on), then watch any video on YouTube. Let’s analyze the requests inside Fiddler2 now. This is what I got after watching the entire video:
So as we can see, while watching the video, it sends numerous “s.youtube.com” requests. For those who don’t know, this is YouTube’s Video Stats Server (according the response header “Server: Video Stats Server”). This is the server that counts the views, and everything else that has to do with video statistics (basically everything in your analytics).
Now let’s take a look at the parameters sent over to the server from our browser. I will be explaining in detail what each one of these tells the server.
on3g=0
This basically means that the phone is not watching this via 3G.
app=youtube_mobile
This is the main parameter in this method. By telling YouTube’s statistic servers that you are a mobile phone, you bypass most security such as X views per IP per 24 hours, etc. It basically turns the filters off.
preq=%2Fwatch%3Fajax%3D1%26feature%3Dm-trends%26layout%3Dmobile%26tsp%3D1%26v%3Dyk_7ol-bSU8
This is basically the end of the URL you’ve navigated to.
reloadCount=0
Every single request I’ve sent, this has been 0, and I don’t think it will change in the near future. It’s basically how many times you’ve reloaded the video (I think).
rdm=m4vdvn22r
The last 3 characters of this changes randomly (with no pattern that makes sense), so I just do the same as the JavaScript files, and append 3 random characters after “m4vdvn”. The views count, so it should be right.
html5=1
Tells YouTube that we are using the html5 mobile player, and not something else (though there are not too many available alternatives, I have no clue why this is one of the parameters)
ns=yt
“ns” means namespace, and it is always “yt” (YouTube). Never analyzed a video with a different value.
ps=blazer
“ps” means player-style, and the mobile-player is codenamed “blazer”.
el=detailpage
“el” means “Event Label”, and “detailpage” means what we all refer to as “watch page”. (the default page we watch the video on)
hl=en
“hl” is the interface language, and “en” is English.
cr=US
“cr” is country region, and “US” is the United States. Changing this sometimes changes the location of the video (geo-targeting), but it is not always working. (they base it of IP most times, but when they turn off the initial filters, changing country region usually works)
docid=yk_7ol-bSU8
“docid” basically means the video ID. The thing usually after the “/watch?v=”.
plid=h306l6771pavjfv1u
“plid” means playback ID token value, and can be scraped from the HTML.
fmt=18
Basically means which format the video is in. If you’ve ever coded a video downloader before, you would know what 18 is. Although, you can just watch the video 1 time with Chrome (+ UA spoofer) and find out which format it is, then use that to send the requests. It will never change (for that specific video)
fs=0
Is the video played back in full screen? 1 = true, 0 = false.
screenw=320
Screen width.
screenh=533
Screen height.
rt=30.252
Basically, here is my calculation of this parameter:
It means, current unix time, subtracted by the time the player started playing (unix time, you have to store this), divided by a thousand, and round to 3 decimals.Code:rt = ((getTimer() - playbackStartTime) / 1000).toFixed(3);
sw=1
Stands for sampling weight although I have no clue what that means.
len=218.635
Length of the video in seconds. This has to be accurate, and you can get it by watching the video legitimately 1 time, and find the values in Fiddler2, or any other HTTP analyzer out there.
st=17.643
This means “start seconds”, and is the value of which time in the video it sent the LAST request. First request, both et and st will be the same.
et=27.65
This means “end seconds”, and is the value of which time in the video it sent the CURRENT request. First request, both et and st will be the same.
How this is used to send “Facebook and Twitter” views
So, the people who know about this method were kind of smart, and though: “Hey if it shows up as mobile, and can easily be emulated, can’t we make it look like it comes from elsewhere?” And they figured out how to do this.
I know a few people that own sites that sell views, and gigs on Fiverr that currently do this, and it is basically just a ripoff, and the price gives away that. There is no way people can sell real views at such prices.
Now let’s look at how it is done. When watching a video legitimately with a real PC, and actually being referred through Facebook, we get a parameter called “sdetail”, and “referrer”. I figured out that “sdetail” is not important, so let’s focus on “referrer”. By adding a little parameter to the mobile request (with “app=youtube_mobile” and all that jazz), called “referrer=URL”, we can make the views come from anywhere. So basically appending “referrer= http%3A%2F%2Ffacebook.com%2F” (url-encoded) to the parameter list, it will come from Facebook. Wasn’t that easy? Well, it sure does look good and all that, but from all the tests I’ve done (and just to let you know, that’s a TON), it never has any positive SEO-impact to the videos. I’ve heard people say that it does, but that was BEFORE, when the RTSP glitch still worked (oh, by the way, it works again).
Mobile views do not really mean much, but that changed today (03.06.2012). By adding “et” (end time) and “st” (start time) mobile views now shows audience retention to the video statistics server, meaning it now adds SEO-juice. You heard it here first They used to not send rt, et and st, but they added it last night, meaning they want to use mobile views in their SEO algorithm (and this is the reason some sites such as SquidRootBeer do not offer mobile views since last night)
Part 2 will be released next week, and I will talk about another common method these fake “view sellers” use. This one will be a little trickier. Until then, peace out.
Credits to "the known" for countless of hours of testing with me. <3
can anybody answer if this can be done via web browser using live http or something, in case nobody codes it up and post..
maybe i'll code it after the celtics game
This looks like half a dozen cURLs piped to /dev/null.

bump, would like to see this before it gets fixed
made no $$ with the method but did get a shit load of backlinks when all those wordpress sites scraped up my video.
i made one but i'm tired as fuck so i don't feel like cleaning up the code to make it work for other people right now. also it looks like it's working but i wont be able to tell until tomorrow anyway.
that spk dude said i'm doing it different than him but it should still work. if i don't see the hits come in tomorrow i'm sure dat nigga will tell me how to fix it.
either way, you'll probably have a working bot here tomorrow. i almost don't even want to drop it here due to begging. maybe i'll just send it to people that don't suck and the rest can PM, idk but that foxhound nigga bumping this thread like "YO DUDES WHERE THE FUCKS THIS BOT AT" was a super turn-off
sell it for $20, brah. 100% serious. you've done a lot to make dg more of a community, i think you earned yourself the ability to at least charge a super low price for your dope bots once in awhile.
in for 1 at $20
it works. multithreaded and stuff. sorry, hot date's over atm and i just bored her death trying to explain how it works before even making it accept user input. gimme like a few minutes.
sorry i was being a grumpypuss last night
dg4l, check back in a few
she just actually walked out of here because of this.
sux yo, call me if it doesnt work

luv you guise
you have to have python27
inbox you fuckin beast

but you both the apple of my whywork eyes, no homosexuality
running smooth over here, lets hope when the stats refresh on this video that your exploit really works and I will be very delighted
PM me with forum questions or concerns and I will do my best to help
You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to dougiefresh again.she just actually walked out of here because of this.

even with python i can't get it open...
1.Install Python on C:\even with python i can't get it open...
2.create folder (put file.exe, log.txt, logo.txt, run.cmd) inside that folder doesn't matter where its at
3.Add SuperStar.exe to run.cmd
and click it.. sheesh
shit, dont use this yet, i think i left my test video hardcoded in. yall just made a hilarious video of me dancing go viral. ill fix and reup at lunch.
ROFL, awesome thread, gg dougie

kay, fixed it.
here's the new file: http://www.2shared.com/file/Tzo5VlG7/SuperStar.html
extract and run from command prompt. i don't have time to download fiddler to make sure it's passing your video parameters atm but i'm fairly certain it's all good.
also, i can confirm this exploit is working as i am seeing views starting to come in from you guys running it last night.
the views take like 24 hours to start coming in and then trickle in at best.
ALSO
i only released this here for free yesterday because it was reefer's birthday and he is my favorite dg

if anybody makes money with this you should be a pal and send some my way.
or better yet hook me up with a solid method so that i can make my own money. i won't share it.

what aboutplid=h306l6771pavjfv1u
“plid” means playback ID token value, and can be scraped from the HTML.
yeah the plid is a bitch. you can either dynamically generate it by using the same logic as their javascript OR scrape it from the nonmobile page. i chose the latter.

it's running right now will report back tomorrow
Nice! Repped, will try out soon.

doesn't seem to be working for me :(
does it take a certain amount of time for views to show up?
freezes right here for me
maybe it's a rounding error on certain videos? mine worked first tryfreezes right here for me
dougiefresh comes through
everybody rep him
(You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to dougiefresh again.)
ok it seems to be working now, however, this worries me:
yet the program errors when i include a decimallen=218.635
Length of the video in seconds. This has to be accurate, and you can get it by watching the video legitimately 1 time, and find the values in Fiddler2, or any other HTTP analyzer out there.
if you look at the last request sent after watching the vid on m.youtube you'll see it doesn't need to be that accurate
Dont even mess with youtube but i still gave you rep A+
