Hi Backstage, I¹ve been working on fixing the iPlayer plugin for the Mac OS X media centre app ³Plex². The updated plugin seems to be working pretty well by reading the BBC RSS feeds and JSON feeds, but I have a few questions:
1) Are there any issues with integrating iPlayer into an app like Plex? (I¹m not trying to work around the geographical restrictions on iPlayer access, I should add I¹m just providing a wrapper for the iPlayer flash player from within Plex.) I¹m aware that doing so could be likely to break at any time if the iPlayer site were to change. (You can view Plex here: http://www.plexapp.com/) 2) Assuming this isn¹t a problem legally, is there anywhere I can find a list of all of the potential subcategories / subgenres used by iPlayer? I can see a list of those with at least one current programme assigned to them, but I don¹t know if this list is complete. For example, Children¹s > Activities, Children¹s > Animation, etc. 3) Is there a feed (RSS / JSON / something else) which can be used for searching? Thanks in advance for any help! - Dave.
