Hi,
I just committed a patch for parsing RDF where Brand has a clip
instead of an episode. It is handled in the same way as episodes but
of course there is no concept of a series.
I needed this to download Reading Festival clips from the BBC which
seemed impossible to get using the pid RDF parser

It's been gone over quite a few times on this list but the real
solution has been clouded by people understandably not deleting the
.swfinfo file, not updating to the latest get_iplayer in the git repo
and people needle
rtmpdump already renews the swfinfo every 30 days be default. You
could just run:
--rtmptvopt="--swfAge=0" --prefs-add
and this will always get the swf file every time..

This is consistent with my above post. flvstreamer always sort-of

I'd guess that the change of the swf a few months ago was the culprit.
If you recall it was making downloads fail randomly depending on the
direction of the wind and the CDN used. You will also need to delete
the .swfinfo file if you patch get_iplayer for a proper fix.

Yeah - happened to me a few times too. You can save/restore the
*.cache files in the .get_iplayer/ directory. I think it's because the
date-added field gets reset if all the feeds completely fails to
download after 3 retries and you then subsequently have a successful
feed download.

Why not try using "flashaudio,flashaac,flashhigh,flashstd". This will

I think adding transcoding to getiplayer is probably unwise because
everyone has their preferred transcode options (e.g. like output
bitrate, and even the 'libmp3lame' codec name changes between ffmpeg
builds) and the number of options you'd have to add to satisfy even a

flashaudio is always mp3 when it exists.

Here's a very small patch for the latest in git. Hopefully you can get
this in before you work out how to do that release ;-) It fixes the
bug where programs on BBC HD only were not getting the HD category.
(e.g. QI XL). See attached patch file.

The flash based streams still work fine AFAIK so this should not
prevent you getting the shows after they have aired using get_iplayer
and rtmpdump.

Hi Shevek,
I noticed the same thing this week when I started using HD content
seriously for the first time.. To make my life a little simpler I
created a patch (Subject: 'Patch to tag all BBC HD programs as
category HD') that now adds 'HD' in the category in get_iplayer so
you don't have to wait
Apologies I was getting confused! - yes it is the id3v2 tool you need
for this. I don't think there is such a beast for Windows... However
maybe you can cobble something together since get_iplayer can create a
metadata file and you could parse that after download and tag the mp3
file.
On Tue, Dec
Install AtomicParsley and mp3 files will get tagged automatically
after download.

I found that many of the programs in the channel 'BBC HD' were also on

This patch works around this by adding 'HD' to the category list for
