Another download issue.

2014-10-06 Thread Chris Dunne
Another download issue I'm afraid (that's likely user related):

I'm tring to download http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/b04jmx7l/marvellous

However get_iplayer fails to find 'marvellous' 'INFO: 0 Matching Programmes'

I've also tried:

'get_iplayer http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/b04jmx7l/marvellous'
and 'get_iplayer --pid=b04jmx7l'


Both give:

'get_iplayer v2.86, Copyright (C) 2008-2010 Phil Lewis

Thanks for your help,

Re: Creating divx encoded files

2014-02-18 Thread Chris Dunne
I'm interested in this email chain.

I have two (budget) TVs that both have USB ports and will play Xvid
files (Divx5) when contained in AVI files fine but will not play mp4s
directly.

Presently the only way I can watch recordings from get_iplayer is to
either convert them to Xvid, burn them onto a DVD and play them on my
Philips DVD player (this also has a USB port but will only play mp4s
when on a disc) or watch them from my laptop plugged in via SVGA.

If there is some way for get-iplayer to save recordings in a format
that would be compatible with these TVs it would be beneficial.

Chris

Correct me if I'm wrong, people but...isn't the DivX format a subset
of the MPEG4 standard?

 More or less. Mark, do you perhaps mean the AVI container format? What
 exactly does your application require? (Knowing what it _is_ might be
 helpful, too.)

 Repeating the same procedure for the other videos on the carousel, will get
 them on your disk.
 So, Chris Dunne ENJOY!

Recording from http://www.bbc.co.uk/music/festivals/glastonbury/archive/

2013-06-12 Thread Chris Dunne
Apologies if this has already been asked (I've only quickly browsed
the archives so could have missed it).

Anyway there are quite a few videos on
http://www.bbc.co.uk/music/festivals/glastonbury/archive/ that I would
like a recording of (i.e.
http://www.bbc.co.uk/music/artists/a74b1b7f-71a5-4011-9441-d0b5e4122711)
I assume the content is on Iplayer because the videos have the Iplayer
logo yet I can't seem to find them with getiplayer (i.e. by searching
for glastonbury).

I've tried to find the urls for iplayer from the page source but
getiplayer doesn't seem to like this

i.e: get_iplayer.cmd http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b007r6vx; returns

INFO: Trying pid: http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b007r6vx using type: tv
INFO Trying to stream pid using type tv
INFO: pid not found in tv cache
WARNING: No programmes are available for this pid

Is using getiplayer to get this content not possible or am I being a llama?

Thanks
Chris
