Jetpack XML to show videopress

I’m aware of how to edit the wp-config.php to put Jetpack into development mode, but need some advice please.

I have a client who has videopress enabled on his wordpress.com site and I want to display the [wpvideo] content on my dev server. This needs the xml rpc connection.

Does anyone know how to do this?

I have tried adding Automattic’s IP address range into my .htaccess file without luck:

<Files xmlrpc.php>
allow from 192.0.99
</Files>
