Just so we have some idea of what we are (possibly) looking for, here are screen captures of the glyphs on hansoexposed:

ok all of a sudden I am very interested again in everything. The search for videos and the live appearance of rachel blake has just made this a bit more cooler than before

The 'zoom' options actually give different tools: the smallest zoom is for arranging, the middle zoom ('inspect') lets you watch the snippets, the full zoom ('view') is odd though - it's playing one of my snippets, but also a test card. Is there anything people can spot in that?
edit : Looks like most of this has already been posted in the thread below, but haven't seen mention of the test card yet.

according to the folks at lostpedia, a third code is 4ho . Apparently it "was seen on one of the panelist's bracelets at ComicCon".
...And it's got Mittel-verk!

"Speaker" hinted that there would be a few clues if not actual codes at comic-con. I'm not bothered about hints like that, at this point, help is welcome.
Pretty risky putting a code on a panelists wrist. What if we missed it? Oh wait, who am I kidding, we're lost fans, we don't miss anything.
Edit: By the way, that wrist band appears to have been on Jorge Garcia AKA The Hurlmeister, AKA Hurley. You can see the band here but you can't see the code. I'm guessing someone met him in person.

Maybe we need to be paying attention to the symbols inside the boxes? The one for 7hkbh is probably an "e" (as in exposed), and the one inside the RRGXYS looks like a branch of some sort, maybe an olive branch? (A very liberal interpretation could be an arrow, as in "the Arrow") There's also two large dots in the picture: maybe they mean that it's the second clue?

I would maybe keep an eye on Egyptian hieroglyphs for those, since it sorta resembles the DHARMA logos n pixellated format.

matt_the_pale posted a series of photo in the META forum that shows at least two different people wearing wristbands. Most are of Jorge- I'd say the top two are of someone else. The last one may be someone else as well. You can see different glyphs on them.
Safe to say that 4ho isnt the only code we can get from this...
[EDIT]- looking at photos fromthis blog Daniel Dae Kiim was also wearing a wristband.

iamthatdizzy, you mentioned that the .swf had some equations to determine what codes are acceptable. Could you post these equations, as well as the inputs to them?

Over at TLEC a post has mentioned that "4ho" was found on Damon Lindelof's wristband. So don't give up on examining Garcia's band, it may be a new code.

ironic that rachel chews the Comic-Con panel out for having "blood on their hands", and then one of them sports her glyph on a *wristband* tee hee, lost experience pm's.
or maybe it's a clue?
mostly, i am wondering what she means by "people she can trust". does this include, say, Gary Troup's website (does she "know" about that site?), or ROT? probably not the corporate-sponsored ones (sublymonal)....
i'm guessing that Speaker won't point in the general direction of all of the glyphs, but how else would we know which sites to check up on regularly? should we develop a system of tracking some of our known sites?
i must say that i am truly excited about this part of the experience. finally! a puzzle with some merit!

I don't think there is anything for this. The codes should be checked server side.
