I'm very happy to code and submit a pull request for this myself if someone can point me toward figuring out where the RTSP stream can be found on the layers of Javascript, or a general tutorial for finding such.

Would greatly appreciate support for CanWest's many stations in Canada, they produce a huge amount of TV freely available online in Canada through their somewhat crappy Flash player.
