Subject: Feature Request - PVR run downloads radio before TV
Message-ID: <CA+L9MavhEhKaLUrXTa8NbawR9XGxLmO7U5OuzXP-Sos6ss92SA@mail.gmail.com>

I use get_iplayer to download both TV and Radio. The Radio files are
usually smaller and more important to me than the larger TV files
which I'm usually less bothered about

It's a queuing thing really 15 radio downloads could be done in the
time it takes for 1 hour long TV show.

Please can we have the ability to specify that the PVR run downloads
radio before TV.

Thanks

Kevin

Thanks.  That all looks as it should, and I would have been surprised if 
it were otherwise.  But, I've no idea why get_iplayer finds that 
$SIG{INT} has already been set to "IGNORE".  get_iplayer doesn't do so 
itself.  What are you doing in get_iplayer when the error appears?

I also don't understand your patch:

> -	$SIGORIG{$signal}->() if $SIGORIG{$signal};
> +	$SIGORIG{\@$signal}->() if $SIGORIG{\@$signal};

Making $signal an array reference and using it as in index into %SIGORIG 
just means that the if test will always fail.  That probably doesn't 
make any difference in this context, but it doesn't seem like the right 
answer to me.  Try this instead and let me know if it works for you:

$SIGORIG{$signal}->() if ref($SIGORIG{$signal}) eq 'CODE';

I think I have to retract my previous comments about "--tag-fulltitle" not
functioning when using Web PVR. Rechecking and re-running a few examples I
find that the Title tag identified by my tagging program MP3TAG does now
contain the fulltitle I want - almost!

Without the option "--tag-fulltitle" set, the resultant download title is
effectively the Episode title as shown in the Web PVR. In the example of the
BBC programme, "Garden in Snowdonia", the Episode title (which becomes the
downloaded file title) is "1. Bodnant Rising". After setting the tag in my
options, the downloaded file title is now "Garden in Snowdonia: Bodnant
Rising". Note the absence of the Episode number. This is a pity because the
actual episode number is a useful item of information when a series is
indexed in my media player so I can playback in the correct order.

Is the "Fulltitle" tag wholly a function of the BBC's output or is it
generated by Get_iPlayer? If it is the latter, then would it be possible to
include the Episode number in the Fulltitle?

I hope this makes sense to someone.

I had a suggestion of a workaround from kapitano72 at gmail.com - to
rename my searches so that they begin with serial numbers and thus
achieve my goal.
This will work for me.

Thanks everyone

With --tag-fulltitle you get whatever the BBC provides.  get_iplayer 
parses an episode number if it exists in the title or uses a fallback 
value of 1 if not.  Your series doesn't have episode numbers in its 
titles, so they would all be set to 1.  That means that the title 
sorting will be the same whether or not an episode number is included in 
the tag value.  If you want them in series order, you have to edit the 
tags, use different sort criteria, or use a different file naming 
convention (if you media manager is sensitive to that).

Do you need to run the video through Handbrake for some other reason? 
It seems like it would be faster to figure out the correct delay with 
VLC then re-download the subtitles with --subtitles-only and --suboffset 
to apply the correction.

This often works, but technically the order in which get_iplayer reads 
the pvr jobs is not guaranteed to be alphabetical.  I'll consider 
sorting them explicitly.  I can't think of a reason not to.

The "WARNING: Couldn't locate meta data!" in your log is a strong hint 
that something may be wrong with the file that makes it indigestible to 
mplayer.  Did you try to run that command from the prompt?  And did you 
try to play back the .flv file?  Or delete the file and re-download?

It would also be nice if one could somehow specify different output
folders for radio and TV recordings in the preferences.

If you look in the Wiki here:

https://github.com/dinkypumpkin/get_iplayer/wiki/options#wiki-output-options

...you can use --outputtv and --outputradio to specify the output
folders for each download type. You can add the command to your
preferences if you want it to default to these folders.

I believe if you use the standard --output command on a case by case
basis it will override the above setting.

Might have guessed! So many options. So little time to read them all...

I got that wrong.  Your series does have episode numbers, but they are 
pulled from another location in the programme metadata, not the title 
string for the programme.

Thanks for info. It is a pity as it means I will have to edit the tag so I
get a full(er) title plus Episode number. Never mind, Get_iPlayer is so
useful to me that this is a small price to pay.

I use Tubedigger for downloading ITV and other non-BBC programmes which
gives no tag data at all - it could do with your magic touch.

Thanks

I would like there to be a GNU/Linux version or equivalent of 
Tubedigger, for non-BBC content. Any chance Dinkypumpkin or anyone else 
on this mailing list could create some such?

It's commercial and closed-source, so there's no possibility of
porting it. For many media sites, quvi will do the job, and doesn't
need flash at all.

Some programmes will contain "Episode 1" or similar, but others, like 
your gardening show, get their episode numbers from elsewhere in the 
metadata.  Which leads me the larger question: What media manager are 
you using that can't sort episodes by number within a series?  Not every 
programme will have an episode number, but many will.  Those that don't 
often use dates for episode titles, so it's easy enough to enter your 
own episode numbers.  Since the dates are in dd/mm/yyyy format they 
won't sort properly by title, either.

--tag-fulltitle was only put in for backwards compatibility because some 
people liked the old tagging scheme.  Feel free to add another option 
that does what you want.

> I use Tubedigger for downloading ITV and other non-BBC programmes which

There is no way a general-purpose downloader could deal with all the 
different metadata formats, web scraping, etc. required to do tagging. 
Besides, I prefer my downloaders to be mildly cryptic, CLI-only, and 
written in a language that looks like an explosion in a typewriter 
factory :}

The owner of the email address being used is probably unaware their
account is being used like this, they may be an idiot for not
protecting their PC or accounts adequately, and that is a matter of
debate but they are not the one sending the emails. Ill protected
passwords or or accounts are easy pickings for a spammer and it only
takes you to click a carefully crafted link and your passwords are
anyones. This person has been on this list for at least 2 years.

Simple rules to prevent being a victim.
------------------------------------------------------
1. Choose a good password and username
2. Change passwords often. Monthly is great, every 2 months is acceptable.
3. Use second or 2 factor security (It's worth having a mobile phone
or a second email account just for this)/ Don't use your real DOB or
other easily guess personal information, have a secret alternative for
form completion.
4. Use a good e-mail provider, Google is a good provider,
Yahoo/Hotmail/Outlook/AOL are NOT good providers.
5. Don't click links you don't know, were not expecting and check the
destination carefully - even better manually type the URL into your
browser and don't click the link.
6. Nigerian princes/bank managers/businessmen are not out there giving
away their inheritance/stolen millions/ill gotten gains to unknown
strangers for a small fee to evade taxes
7. You have not won a lottery you didn't even enter and even if you
did, how would they know your e-mail address? They didn't.
8. Your friend isn't being held ransom for an unpaid bill at a hotel
while on holiday.
9. It's too good to be true, because it isn't true.
10. Be sceptical of any offer and unsolicited e-mail. If in doubt, DELETE IT!
11. Don't install browser add-ons, extensions and plug-in's from
unknown sources, and DON'T install toolbars from anywhere!
12. Avoid dodgy websites and stay where you know you are safe. There
are reasons pickpockets and scam artists like the back alleyways but
avoid the main streets.

[snipped lots of good stuff]

Also, the commonest way email accounts are hacked is by persuading
someone to go to a dodgy website, usually by clicking a link in an
email you have received from someone you know who has already been
hacked.  You realise this is a dodgy page and leave the page.  Then
you get a popup saying you have been logged out of your email and
asking you to put your username/password in, this is not in fact from
your email system but is a page put up by the hacker, and by entering
your credentials you immediately allow him to hack in.  So any time
you get asked for your username or email address and password make
quite sure that it is valid.  It may be a good copy of hotmail's login
page for example.  If in doubt shut down your browser and start again,
typing in hotmail.com (or whatever) in the browser address bar to get
back to your email again.

With regards to the recent spam email that has appeared on the list. I got
in touch with Roadcone via alternate means and he was unaware that his email
had been compromised, but he has taken measures to rectify the problem. He
has tried to post to the list and apologise in person but his email account
has been blacklisted and as soon as that has been sorted he will address the
situation in person.

Many Thanks

There is enough dissent surrounding Perl without one of its proponents
calling names. Well-written Perl is concise and clear, potentially more
so than other languages. If any current language deserves disrespect
then it is the cryptic and ubiquitous C.

Subject: BBC Metadata and TV and Radio Mode Shortcuts
Message-ID: <525154A4.2070708@placefarm.com>

I rely mainly on the TV and Radio mode shortcuts "good", "better" and 
"best".
But, a little while ago, I hit a small snag with this, due to incorrect 
BBC metadata.
Programme Name="6 Music at Latitude", Episode="2013: 1. Kraftwerk at 
Latitude 2013" had Type="radio" but Mode="flashvhigh"
Presumably it also had Mode="flashhigh" and Mode="flashstd" too.
I managed to record it by manually adding the missing TV modes after 
"best" in a comma-separated list
Is it worth having these shortcut modes fall back to their equivalent 
modes in the other type, just in case such a BBC metadata error happens 
again?

Hi everyone, hope someone can help with this. I updated to version

get the attached error message. Any ideas as to what's gone wrong?

Many thanks

This happens for every download? What if you delete the partial file
found here and try again:

C:\Users\Midfield General\Desktop\iPlayer Recordi
ngs\Casualty_Series_28_-_9._Love_Hurts_b03cnmzj_default.partial.mp4.flv

If you updated from a pre-2.83 (or early 2.83) version, did you remove
any of the swfurl error corrections you might have made? Details here
(see 'Reverting you Changes' halfway down the page):

Hi everyone, hope someone can help with this. I updated to version
2.84 last Friday. Every time I've tried to download anything since, I
get the attached error message. Any ideas as to what's gone wrong?

Many thanks

Seriously? You repeat the *entirety* of *two* messages, *and* the digest
header indicating that you should edit your Subject line to be more
specific, which you ignored *except* to quote it, and you post one line
of your own at the top?

I am now going to disable digests for the list. There's no real point in
them these days; bandwidth for email is cheap, and it's hardly difficult
for people to have list mail automatically filtered into a separate
folder if they don't want a lot of it polluting their inbox. And they
make it almost impossible to reply correctly and preserve threading.

There were a whole bunch of people who *were* using the digests though,
probably just because it's easier than doing the filtering on the client
side. But it does encourage *extremely* bad behaviour, and yours was the
last straw. Those people who were receiving digests will no longer be
receiving email from the list until they manually switch themselves to
non-digest mode. And they know who to blame :)

 As dinkypumpkin said four days ago: "use --pid=xxxxxxxx".

Doesn't that need   --type=radio    somewhere, otherwise it will try and
find a matching tv programme?

and maybe   --pid=    in front of p01jvm93

Here, that pid only occurs in my radio.cache file, strongly implying that
it's an audio file not a video.

Or do you think "-v" means video?  It doesn't; it means "verbose output".

Looking at the website URL you mentioned that doesn't say anything about a
pid for a video, but if I follow the Videos link near the top of the page
to:

 http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p00z6mpg

I do find a list of videos.  These don't seemt to be mentioned in my
tv.cache file.  So does that mean that some entries in the radio.cache are
for videos?  If so, can GiP cope with that?  Surely it will use
audio-related utilities to process any file it manages to download?

I did manage to get something, using a command:

 get_iplayer --type=radio --verbose --long --fatfilename
   --whitespace --file-prefix "R=<name> E=<episode>" 
   --aactomp3 --no-tag --get "6 Music Live at Maida Vale.*mccartney"

but I don't really know if it is audio or video, or maybe a video file
that's had audio extracted from it.

-- 
Jeremy Nicoll - my opinions are my own.

Those videos won't be in the TV cache because they're not provided via 
the iPlayer site.  When you use --pid, get_iplayer will look for media 
streams corresponding to the PID regardless of whether or not it's in 
the cache.

It's the audio of the same programme.  It was broadcast on 6 Music and 
is made available on the iPlayer site, thus it's in the radio programme 
cache.

Yes, I knew that it meant "verbose", the error was omitting the "--pid="
before the programme ID ( I rarely use the command line as most of my
recordings are of series, and so automated), the programme has now been
grabbed, but I'm still struggling to see why the GUI crapped out.

Subject: problems with radio.cache file
Message-ID: <mpro.mv4w1700e9div028c@wingsandbeaks.org.uk.invalid>

Using 2.83

I've been writing some code that reads the radio.cache file, and have found
three instances where the lines in the current file seem to have been split
across two records in the file - I'm guessing there's a LF or CR inside the
'desc' field in each case.

I'm not sure if this is a problem that affects perl, depending on how it
reads the cache and how it splits it into lines.  My program's not written
in perl and maybe did things differently.

Looking at the leftmost parts of the cache file lines I'm seeing:

Putting it another way, when I look at the file, the index number on the
last record is <> the line number of the line (-10000), and out by more than
the difference of 1 you'd expect from the record layout line at the start of
the file.   The tv.cache file is fine.



I have a slight modification to get_iplayer that prefaces each line of
output with the date and time at which it executed, so my output from
commands is not the same as everyone else's.  Nevertheless if I do a search
for

  men from the min|the drift.*fiddling

(which should find two programmes - one that's not one of the three listed
above, and one that is), I get:

Folk,Music,Radio, 0 dCanada.ours ago - April, the fiddling sensation from
the Ottawa Valley

- the key point here is that "Canada" has overlaid part of the line of
output.  It looks daft here, but in my cmd.exe window it showed up at the
start of a wrapped line.  "Canada" is really meant to follow "Ottawa Valley"
I think.

Radio 4 Extra, Comedy,Radio,Sitcoms, 0 days 5 hours ago - The outlook is

- whereas this output, wrapping aside, is ok

I am having some problems with refreshing the tv cache and have boiled
it down to this:

I start with no tv.cache file at all, the next refresh command
successfully updates and my tv.cache file is created with 365 KB

Log file 1: http://pastebin.com/ZU7Py9xu

tv.cache 1: http://pastebin.com/FsrHUcDL

A subsequent refresh then updates, find 0 mathcing and my tv.cache
file drops to 1 KB

Log file 2: http://pastebin.com/mtynUy1E

tv.cache 2: http://pastebin.com/N1avVLH9

What's going wrong?

TIA

This is full of lines like:

DEBUG: Getting feed http://feeds.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/parliament/list/limit/400
INFO: Getting page http://feeds.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/parliament/list/limit/400
.INFO: Got 0 programmes

whereas in the working situation it would normally list a non-zero number of
programms.

There's no way from the log to tell whether data was acquired from the bbc
website but GiP couldn't extract meaning from it, or whether no data was
acquired, though I would guess the latter.

If I paste "http://feeds.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/parliament/list/limit/400" into a
browser address bar, now, I see what looks like a proper RSS feed page
describing a list of programmes.  Do you see that?  And, if the problem
continues, do you see details in a browser when GiP fails to see details?

Should be fixed in Git.

It's now failing again and I can confirm that the feed is empty in my
browser as well.

Is there anything going on at beeb end?

The only other change at my end is I've just switched from BT ADSL (on
a Netgear router) to BT Infinity (so now have to use the Home Hub) .

My netgear was configured to use OpenDNS which the Home Hub doesn't allow.

Maybe that's causing an issue?

I'll manually set DNS on my PC and see if it's sorted.

Subject: DSL router changed, now "ERROR: Command failed to execute: No child

Message-ID: <20131025060856.GA24911@fiori.pasta.net>

Hi, our DSL router in the UK has recently been replaced (Netgear -->
TalkTalk badged D-Link 3680), since then I have some problems with
get_iplayer.

When I run get_iplayer and use a browser (e.g. w3m for the sake of
displaying output here), then there is no problem.

But, this system is connected via an openvpn VPN connection to a system
outside the UK, and if I run the browser from there, directing it
across the VPN connection to the UK system then this happens:

web client side outside UK:

w3m http://cercis:1935/
Waiting for reply...    [waits forever]

get_iplayer side in UK:

ERROR: Command failed to execute: No child processes
INFO: Command exit code 72057594037927935

The new router/firewall has been configured to allow VPN (UDP/1194)
and ssh traffic through, and ssh in the same direction as the w3m
request is working fine, and ssh over the VPN connection is also fine.

The old router had the same configuration (22 and 1194 open and
forwarded to the system), but had no problem.

Googling the 'ERROR: Command failed to execute: No child processes'
message, I saw a commit to git made a couple of months ago, so I
got get_iplayer from git an hour ago, but the result was the same
(in fact that is that newest version's output above).

I do not find the 'No child processes' message in the code, but perhaps
thats some strerror thing. The 'Command failed to execute:' part,
I find that in get_iplayer and get_iplayer.cgi, but I'm not familiar
enough with the code to work out what has happened to make it arrive
at one of these places.

It could be a VPN issue, but (1) the get_iplayer error message
indicates that an error has occurred, (2) ssh over the VPN or over the
internet going in the same direction both work, but on the other
hand this all worked until the router was swapped.

Can anybody offer any advice please? Thank you.

My previous cache files problem appears to have gone away!

I have now noticed a problem with file naming though.

I use a funny file naming pattern which I then parse through my own
custom built C# app to get filenames that I like.

Here's my options file:

tag_hdvideo 1
whitespace 1
fatfilename 1
tvmode best
radiomode best
fileprefix <name>~<nameshort>~<episode>~<episodeshort>~<senum>~<mode>

But, what I have noticed is that the <mode> tag is coming out wrong in
some cases, here's some entries from my download history:

As you can see, it downloads the flashhigh version but it's being
taggged as flashvhigh.

My _guess_ is that it's attempting the flashvhigh version, failing and
the getting the flashhigh version but not internally updating the
tags.

It's beyond my meagre perl skills to track this one down!

Hi to the list,

this is my first post here, so please apologise if I am off topic.

I have installed get-iplayer on raspberry pi:

pi at raspberrypi ~ $ get-iplayer -V
get_iplayer v2.82, Copyright (C) 2008-2010 Phil Lewis

I am trying  to download all David Attenborough's programs on the BBC
Iplayer. However, I can only see a limited number of programmes with
respect to those that are listed on the IPlayer web site. If you
perform a search:

http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/search?q=david%20attenborough

you will see that the number of results obtained is 33, with the name
Attenborough on the name or description. However from get-iplayer I am
getting the following

pi at raspberrypi ~ $ get-iplayer
--fields=index,type,name,pid,available,episode,seriesnum,episodenum,versions,duration,desc,channel,categories,thumbnail,timeadded,guidance,web
Attenborough
.....
INFO: 14 Matching Programmes

so that I get only 14 programmes.

I have tried many possible options and combinations.
Please, can you help? What am I doing wrong here?

Many thanks

If you're running any kind of antivirus or similar security package 
(including Windows Defender), disable it entirely and try the installer 
again.

You need to run the installer as an administrator I think.
Right click the exe and select 'run as administrator'.

get_iplayer does not scrape the iPlayer site for listings.  With a 
couple of exceptions for news and sports, it only pulls listing feeds 
for individual channels, including pseudo-channels like "Web Only" and 
"Highlights".  Occasionally, some archive programmes such these are not 
assigned to a channel and thus do not appear in the listing feeds.  You 
can still download them using PIDs or URLs.

Subject: How to terminate a downloading task when rtmpdump.exe is still on?
Message-ID: <BLU0-SMTP1594D272098D808EB723C80940A0@phx.gbl>

Hello everyone,

Short description: During a downloading session, get_iplayer, after 
calling rtmpdump.exe, can not response to user input like Ctrl+c to 
terminate the program. It happens also when ffmpeg is being called to 
convert a downloaded flv file. Normally ffmpeg can be terminated by 
Ctrl+c when it is called in cmd.exe. So I guess the application response 
priority has been changed in get_iplayer script written in perl.

How can I terminate rtmpdump.exe when it is still on?

Long description:
Due to my slow and unreliable  internet, sometimes an unfinished task 
has to be resumed. The rtmpdump.exe can not response at all during 
normal downloading state unless when it stops and  resumes the task by 
itself, pressing Ctrl+c just at that moment can terminate the current 
task. After that, it is always successful to resume the unfinished task 
by get_iplayer.

However, rtmpdump.exe may not stop a task on a very bad internet 
connection, instead it prints repeatedly some unhopeful information like:
   WARNING: HandleInvoke, Sanity failed. no string method in invoke packet

Under such situation rtmpdump.exe can not response at all. It has to be 
killed, but unfortunately when it is called again by get_iplayer, it can 
not resume but prints:
     ERROR: Last tag size must be greater/equal zero 
(prevTagSize=1978859951) and smaller then filesize, corrupt file!

I have to use a php script "flvfixer" to recover the corrupted file so 
the file can be downloaded again.

Thanks a lot,
Zhe

This is under Windows? Run Windows "Task Manager" (right click on the task 
bar and select "Start Task Manager" from the pop-up menu), go to the 
"Processes" tab of Task Manager, select the "rtmpdump" process, and click 
the "End Process" button. It will then terminate in the cmd window.

Hope this helps,

Chris

I'm not sure that that's true; I think I may have used either ^C or ^Z to
stop a download, but it wasn't immediately acted on.  Maybe rtmpdump.exe
only polls something (to see if an interrupt request has been made) at
irregular intervals?

To me a more annoying problem is that although GiP usefully (if it's
basically working but gets interrupted) continues/retries a fetch quite a
few times, I sometimes have what's a fundamentally broken download retry and
retry and retry and retry... and in my view it retries far too much.  

In theory the perl program lets you code --attempts=nn, which has a default
value of 3, but there's code that overrides this to 50 (sometimes?).  It
seems to me that if the user wanted eg --attempts=8 then that's the value
that should be used.

Incomplete documentation is at fault here.  In short, --attempts sets 
the number of times rtmpdump should try to resume a particular stream 
before giving up.  If you look at the section of code you referenced, 
you'll see that --attempts applies per stream. For TV, each recording 
mode corresponds to 2 streams (1 for each of 2 CDNs).  The maximum 
number of retries for a programme is:

According to this:

http://www.mail-archive.com/get_iplayer at lists.infradead.org/msg04994.html

you could previously install get_iplayer 2.84 but found something 
interfering with the downloads.  Now you say that something is 
interfering with the installer, which apparently worked fine at the time 
of your earlier post.  The obvious question: What changed in the 
intervening 3 weeks?

Assuming you don't know the answer to that question, my guess is still 
that the likely culprit is your antivirus or some other security package 
you may be running.  The installer requires privilege elevation to run, 
so the system would either display a UAC prompt or silently refuse to 
launch the installer (depending on settings) if you didn't have the 
requisite privileges.  Running the installer as administrator won't help 
if your antivirus is interfering with it.  Avast is a known offender.

If you still can't identify the problem, I suggest you use ProcMon to 
look for clues.  If you don't know how to use ProcMon, some basic 
instructions for monitoring the installer are at the beginning of this 
forum post:

In the log, look for indications that an antivirus-related DLL is being 
loaded.  Also look for HTTP requests from the installer being routed to 
the loopback address (127.0.0.1).  That would signify that a security 
application is operating a proxy that may be rejecting the requests.
