>Your example of what it should be looks like base64. Try using strconv("",13)

Not quite likely - the hex string he's supposed to get returns "ƒ]ĘQ“öu 9/s¦«†8‚žZ¸™€Ç)ÚSŤěˆĹ" when decoded from hex; a proper base64 would look more like "Zl1FXg5Rk/Z1IDkvc6arEYY4gp5auJmAxynaBVM/aWBeQSo=" - i.e. with all 64 printable characters, not just the 16 hex digits. IOW, I think he's really getting a completely wrong value, not the correct value in wrong format.

If it helps, I've been told that the web service generated the value from the hash code in bytes: 82 -25 -29 123 -116 95 108 -34 -123 5 -87 -44 -90 50 76 -92 -122 -43 -86 19 -35 -31 -116 -73 -6 88 105 9 120 52 63 114
