Downloaded videos are stored in the SD card [[Extdata]], from the decrypted [[SpotPass]] content payload. Country info is presumably stored in this metadata, region-lock is handled by the BOSS module via the programID in the [[SpotPass#Payload Content Header|payload header]]. At the end of the video file is a JPEG, which contains the video thumbnail, and various metadata in the EXIF including the URL associated with the video. The text shown on the web browser button is also stored in the EXIF.
Downloaded videos are stored in the SD card [[Extdata]], from the decrypted [[SpotPass]] content payload, adding an additional header to them. Country info is presumably stored in this metadata, region-lock is handled by the BOSS module via the programID in the [[SpotPass#Payload Content Header|payload header]].


All of these fields are big-endian?
While the SpotPass payload uses little-endian, the extra header added to the Extdata is stored in big-endian.

== File format ==
The SpotPass content downloaded for Nintendo Video uses the [[SpotPass]] content container format, see the SpotPass page for info on the container format. At the end of the video file is a JPEG, which contains the video thumbnail, and various advertising metadata (interactive links) including the URL associated with the video. The text shown on the web browser button is also stored in the interactive links.
 
Region info is stored in the decrypted SpotPass crypto layer, see above SD section.
 
The following entries use little-endian.

The SpotPass content downloaded for Nintendo Video uses the [[SpotPass]] content container format, see the SpotPass page for info on the container format. See the above SD storage section for info on the cleartext payload.
==== Interactive links data ====
Interactive links store a thumbnail image as a JPEG image.


Region info is stored in the decrypted SpotPass crypto layer, see above SD section.

This can be done with any DNS server and HTTP server, as long as you spoof everything correctly. It is possible on Windows. I have not tried Mac OS X.

Unfortunately, this currently has little use since Nintendo shut the services down. However, they can still be spoofed if you have everything still on your 3DS. Spoofing your own videos could be possible, but you can already do that with the web browser and something like Universal Media Server.
