Also, I've noticed today that the first two episodes of The Story Of Maths came down as HD, but the last two came down as SD. I did try using the version PID for version original, b08qkv0v, with v2.97, but it was not able to find anything at all, so that is not a solution. I haven't got v2.97 on this machine so I can't check what it can see for the first two episodes. You can check with the --info option. Does it show version original? When did you download the Amsterdam episode? The HLShd and FlashHD modes for that episode had errors which were corrected about a week after broadcast. I don't know enough about the working of get_iplayer to know why v2.97 and v3.01 can see different versions of the programmes. Maybe Vangelis will be along soon. As I said before, as long as you have v2.5 or above of ffmpeg, not having v3.00 or above ought not to be a problem unless you want DVF modes. Are you able to install the additional Perl modules required by v3.00 of get_iplayer? As for The Story of Maths, only the fourth episode is now available. It says it was first broadcast on 27 October 2008, so it would not have been made in HD. It is possible that some additional commentary has been added to the first two episodes in HD. Are they editorial versions? Have you checked whether the whole of those episodes are in HD? I wrote the above two days ago, but had a problem sending it. Anyway I can now check what get_iplayer v2.97 is able to see for the Amsterdam (b08ns05n) and Barcelona (b08ps5rd) programmes. In both cases it can only find the default versions. The difference from the St Petersburg programme is that the default versions are not signed. I normally only use the original version, or occasionally an editorial version. I'll have to leave it to someone else to explain what the default version is, why it is sometimes signed and sometimes not signed, and why v2.97 is now only able to see the default version (or in one case default and audiodescribed) while v3.01 can see more versions including original. ___ get_iplayer mailing list get_iplayer@lists.infradead.org http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/get_iplayer

You might want to report this one to the BBC. Episode 4 is still available for another 11 days and they may well be able to fix it in that time. Might be worth a try at least. ___ get_iplayer mailing list get_iplayer@lists.infradead.org http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/get_iplayer

Re: An Art Lover's Guide - 3 St Petersburg
From: C E Macfarlane Sent: Tuesday, May 23, 2017 16:22 ... what's the exact command line you're trying to download it with? I'm still on 2.97, because I can't update ffmpeg on this embedded linux NAS. Original command was ... gip --type tv --tvmode flashhd,hlshd,flashvhigh,hlsvhigh --pid b08qkvcq --file-prefix "An Art Lover's Guide - 3 St Petersburg" --pvr-queue What happens if you change to --tvmode=hlshd,flashhd,hlsvhigh,flashvhigh or just --tvmode=hlshd Could flashhd be the wrong version? As I understand it you only need v3.00 or above of ffmpeg for DVF modes. If you can download HLS you must already have ffmpeg v2.5 or above . As for waiting until tonight to try again, you don't have to download the whole programme to see whether it is signed. A few seconds will do. ___ get_iplayer mailing list get_iplayer@lists.infradead.org http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/get_iplayer
