With help from John in the US in Canada I used the following and its now downloading:
get_iplayer --get 488 --tvmode=best That's episode 5 of Happy Valley Seems to be using mode=flashhd2 and resulting video file is High Def Now I need to try some others Looks like the problem is not to do with Geoblocking but the mode specified. I've tried all the different modes and the only ones that work are: --tvmode=best --tvmode =flashhd --tvmode=flashlow - failed --tvmode=flashnormal - failed --tvmode=flashstd - failed --tvmode=flashhigh - failed --tvmode=flashvhigh - failed Regards -----Original Message----- From: get_iplayer [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of David Lewis Sent: Friday, 30 May 2014 11:17 AM To: [email protected] Subject: RE: ERROR: RTMP_Connect1, handshake failed. ??? Thanks for your replies Sorry for my ignorance but can you explain about CDNs please I tried adding your suggested command line but unfortunately resulted in the same error. The log exceeds the 40kB limit for posts so I haven't included it. I'm in Australia and am using Unblock-us. I can access iPlayer from IE browser, and can use the Iplayer Download program (on Win 8.1) - no problems The consensus here seems to be that BBC is still detecting I'm not in the UK when using get_player and refusing connection. Would that be a reasonable assumption?? Are the any suggestions regarding being able to permanently retain files downloaded using iplayer_download Regards David -----Original Message----- From: get_iplayer [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of dinkypumpkin Sent: Friday, 30 May 2014 1:08 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: ERROR: RTMP_Connect1, handshake failed. ???

See the other reports referenced above. Something you could do to help test - Run the command like this: get_iplayer --get 471 --modes flashlow --attempts 1 --debug Removing the number suffix from "flashlow" will hit both CDNS, and the --debug flag may induce rtmpdump to show some additional error messages. _______________________________________________ get_iplayer mailing list [email protected] http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/get_iplayer _______________________________________________ get_iplayer mailing list [email protected] http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/get_iplayer _______________________________________________ get_iplayer mailing list [email protected] http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/get_iplayer
