URLs of embedded SoundCloud players (e.g. on http://hackaday.com/2014/01/01/reverse-engineering-hitclips/) are not recognized properly. Using just the (decoded) URL passed in the URL parameter (in this case http://soundcloud.com/ch00ftech/pushpull) on the other hand works flawlessly

cloud.com/player.swf?referer=&url=http%3A%2F%2Fsoundcloud.com%2Fch00ftech%2Fpus
